Sources and review

Checked against public documentation on . Suitability guidance is our editorial judgment; this is not a performance benchmark or an endorsement.

Avoid if

You can't install the FreeCAD addon and keep FreeCAD running with its RPC server started.

About FreeCAD MCP

FreeCAD MCP lets MCP clients create and edit FreeCAD models, run Python scripts, inspect documents and run finite element analyses. It has two parts: an addon inside FreeCAD that starts an RPC server, and an MCP server launched by the client with uvx.

FreeCAD MCP is listed in this index written primarily in Python, with 3.2k stars on GitHub. Its latest recorded repository push was in October 2026; that is not an ASE editorial review date.

Before connecting: access and data

This record's specific permissions have not been reviewed by ASE. Read the publisher's documentation before copying setup or connecting.

  • List the accounts, files and services the enabled tools can read, change or execute. Check your actual credentials and discovered tools.
  • Use narrowly scoped credentials and read-only mode where supported. Review proposed writes before approving them; a generated configuration does not apply these limits for you.
  • Local launch is not local-only data processing. External services receive requests, and your client may pass tool results to its model provider. Check both destinations before sharing private data.
  • Keep keys and browser session files out of shared config, repositories and screenshots. Know how to disconnect the server and separately revoke its credentials or account sessions.
