Trust breakdown (7 categories)

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Supply Chain Security99
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • Known CVEs were checked across the 65 of 66 dependencies we could resolve, so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.Partial
  • Runs hatchling.build at install time, a recognised build step with no custom scripting around it. View diagnostics → Pass
  • Dependency health was assessed across the 65 of 66 dependencies we could resolve, so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree. View diagnostics → Partial
Provenance & Transparency97
  • Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
  • Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to andrewbartels1/SolidworksMCP-python). View diagnostics → Pass
  • Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
  • Actively maintained (last published 3 days ago).Pass
  • Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability64
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 10924 tokens (~70/item across 154 items; 154 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management0
  • Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).Unverified
Tool Coverage99
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 98% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety75
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • 0 of 4 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "delete_feature" implies "delete" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail
  • An AI judge read all 154 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).Pass

Unverified: 1 category

A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

MCP tools · 154 exposed · ~10,924 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
update_sheet_format ~59

Update the sheet format and title block information. Applies drawing templates and updates title block fields with project information, revision data, and drawing metadata. Essential for standardized documentation and drawing control.

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

update_title_block ~52

Update title block fields for the active drawing. Applies drawing metadata such as title, drawing number, and approval fields to keep documentation aligned with standards.

validate_drawing_completeness ~31

verify_model ~332

Check the active part or assembly against what you meant to build. Call this as the last step of a build (and whenever a step looks suspicious). A modelling tool returning success does not prove the geometry is right; this reads the model back and compares it with your expectations. Give only the expectations you know; each becomes one check. With no expectations it just reports what it measured. Units: mm, mm³ and kg. ``bounding_box_mm`` is the overall size ``[x, y, z]`` in model axes (a sketch on the Front Plane extrudes along z). Widen ``relative_tolerance`` when your hand calculation ignores fillets or chamfers, and ``length_tolerance_mm`` when ``measured.bounding_box_method`` is ``assembly_box`` (SolidWorks' assembly box can be slightly larger than the parts). Mass depends on the assigned material; without one SolidWorks uses a default density. Each check reports ``expected``, ``actual``, ``tolerance`` and ``passed``: ``true``, ``false``, or ``null`` when the value could not be measured (never counted as a pass). ``verdict`` is ``pass``, ``fail``, ``inconclusive`` (nothing failed, something unmeasured) or ``report_only``. ``status`` stays ``success`` when the model does not match: the tool worked, the model is what failed.

NameTypeReqDescription
input_data––Expectations and tolerances. Defaults to None (report only).

Common questions

What is the SolidWorks MCP server?

SolidWorks MCP is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.andrewbartels1/solidworks-mcp-python. Drive SolidWorks from AI agents: parts, assemblies, drawings and export over the COM API. This page covers its PyPI package (solidworks-mcp-python).

Is the SolidWorks MCP server safe to use?

SolidWorks MCP scores 77 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the SolidWorks MCP server expose?

SolidWorks MCP exposes 154 tools: open_model, create_part, create_assembly, create_drawing, close_model, and 149 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 10,924 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the SolidWorks MCP server still maintained?

SolidWorks MCP is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

What licence is the SolidWorks MCP server under?

SolidWorks MCP declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
