FreeCAD MCP

Control FreeCAD from Claude Desktop and other MCP clients. Create and edit models, run Python scripts, inspect documents, and run FEM analyses.

Demo

Design a flange:

Quick start

You need FreeCAD and uv / uvx. FreeCAD MCP has two components: an addon running inside FreeCAD and an MCP server launched by your client.

1. Install and start the FreeCAD addon

git clone https://github.com/neka-nat/freecad-mcp.git
cd freecad-mcp

Copy addon/FreeCADMCP into your FreeCAD addon directory, then restart FreeCAD. Select the MCP Addon workbench and click Start RPC Server in the FreeCAD MCP toolbar.

See the installation guide for platform-specific commands and screenshots.

2. Connect Claude Desktop

Add the following entry to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "freecad": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["freecad-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop to load the configuration, keep FreeCAD open with its RPC server running, and ask Claude to create a model. Connections use localhost by default.

Config for your environment

Replace {MCP_ENDPOINT_URL} with this MCP’s endpoint URL (from its repo or docs above). No API key — you connect directly.

Tool

OS

Config file: ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server": {
      "url": "{MCP_ENDPOINT_URL}"
    }
  }
}

Paste into mcpServers in the config file. Restart Cursor after saving.

If this MCP is also published on mcpchannel.ai, you can subscribe from Browse and use the gateway config there instead.
