Enable AI agents to control FreeCAD via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Create 3D models programmatically, generate parts from descriptions, and automate CAD workflows.

Features

• 🦾 Full FreeCAD control via RPC server
• Create 3D objects from 2D drawings
• Automatic constraint solving
• Part library integration
• Compatible with LangChain and Google ADK agents

Requirements

• FreeCAD 0.21+ installed
• Python 3.10+
• MCP-enabled AI agent
