FreeCAD MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that allows users to control FreeCAD from Claude Desktop, enabling automation and integration of design tasks.

Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

create_document

Create a new document in FreeCAD.

Args: name: The name of the document to create.

Returns: A message indicating the success or failure of the document creation.

Examples: If you want to create a document named "MyDocument", you can use the following data. json { "name": "MyDocument" }

create_object

Create a new object in FreeCAD. Object type is starts with "Part::" or "Draft::" or "PartDesign::" or "Fem::".

Args: doc_name: The name of the document to create the object in. obj_type: The type of the object to create (e.g. 'Part::Box', 'Part::Cylinder', 'Draft::Circle', 'PartDesign::Body', etc.). obj_name: The name of the object to create. obj_properties: The properties of the object to create.

Returns: A message indicating the success or failure of the object creation and a screenshot of the object.

Examples: If you want to create a cylinder with a height of 30 and a radius of 10, you can use the following data. json { "doc_name": "MyCylinder", "obj_name": "Cylinder", "obj_type": "Part::Cylinder", "obj_properties": { "Height": 30, "Radius": 10, "Placement": { "Base": { "x": 10, "y": 10, "z": 0 }, "Rotation": { "Axis": { "x": 0, "y": 0, "z": 1 }, "Angle": 45 } }, "ViewObject": { "ShapeColor": [0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 1.0] } } }

If you want to create a circle with a radius of 10, you can use the following data.
```json
{
    "doc_name": "MyCircle",
    "obj_name": "Circle",
    "obj_type": "Draft::Circle",
}
```

If you want to create a FEM analysis, you can use the following data.
```json
{
    "doc_name": "MyFEMAnalysis",
    "obj_name": "FemAnalysis",
    "obj_type": "Fem::AnalysisPython",
}
```

If you want to create a FEM constraint, you can use the following data.
```json
{
    "doc_name": "MyFEMConstraint",
    "obj_name": "FemConstraint",
    "obj_type": "Fem::ConstraintFixed",
    "analysis_name": "MyFEMAnalysis",
    "obj_properties": {
        "References": [
            {
                "object_name": "MyObject",
                "face": "Face1"
            }
        ]
    }
}
```

If you want to create a FEM mechanical material, you can use the following data.
```json
{
    "doc_name": "MyFEMAnalysis",
    "obj_name": "FemMechanicalMaterial",
    "obj_type": "Fem::MaterialCommon",
    "analysis_name": "MyFEMAnalysis",
    "obj_properties": {
        "Material": {
            "Name": "MyMaterial",
            "Density": "7900 kg/m^3",
            "YoungModulus": "210 GPa",
            "PoissonRatio": 0.3
        }
    }
}
```

If you want to create a FEM mesh, you can use the following data.
The `Part` property is required.
```json
{
    "doc_name": "MyFEMMesh",
    "obj_name": "FemMesh",
    "obj_type": "Fem::FemMeshGmsh",
    "analysis_name": "MyFEMAnalysis",
    "obj_properties": {
        "Part": "MyObject",
        "ElementSizeMax": 10,
        "ElementSizeMin": 0.1,
        "MeshAlgorithm": 2
    }
}
```

edit_object

Args: doc_name: The name of the document to edit the object in. obj_name: The name of the object to edit. obj_properties: The properties of the object to edit.

Returns: A message indicating the success or failure of the object editing and a screenshot of the object.

delete_object

Delete an object in FreeCAD.

Args: doc_name: The name of the document to delete the object from. obj_name: The name of the object to delete.

Returns: A message indicating the success or failure of the object deletion and a screenshot of the object.

execute_code

Execute arbitrary Python code in FreeCAD.

Args: code: The Python code to execute.

Returns: A message indicating the success or failure of the code execution, the output of the code execution, and a screenshot of the object.
