Install

How do I install the Aspicio MCP server?

Aspicio is a hosted endpoint at https://aspicio-api.frontsail.app/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 8 exposed · ~2,223 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
describe_doc ~266

Return a structured JSON summary of a drawing in any supported format (DXF or PDF), detected from its bytes rather than its name. Use this when you do not know which format you have; the reply names the format that was read. Covers the whole drawing by default, including every page of a multi-page PDF; pass `space` (a name from the reply's `spaces`) to scope it to one page or sheet. When the user wants to see or explore the drawing themselves, prefer view_dxf (interactive viewer) — if your platform gates it behind user approval, offer it and ask rather than substituting a static render.

describe_dxf ~302

Return a structured JSON summary of a DXF drawing — units, bounding box, layers (with the color actually drawn), per-type entity counts, and any skipped/unsupported types. Use this to answer structural questions (what layers exist, how many parts, what size, is it to scale) without rendering an image. For a PDF use describe_pdf; if you do not know the format, use describe_doc. Covers the whole drawing by default, including every page of a multi-page PDF; pass `space` (a name from the reply's `spaces`) to scope it to one page or sheet. When the user wants to see or explore the drawing themselves, prefer view_dxf (interactive viewer) — if your platform gates it behind user approval, offer it and ask rather than substituting a static render.

describe_pdf ~293

Return a structured JSON summary of a PDF drawing — units (points), bounding box, layers, per-type entity counts, the text it contains, and what was skipped (images, shadings, transparency). Use this for structural questions about a PDF without rendering it. For a DXF use describe_dxf; if you do not know the format, use describe_doc. Covers the whole drawing by default, including every page of a multi-page PDF; pass `space` (a name from the reply's `spaces`) to scope it to one page or sheet. When the user wants to see or explore the drawing themselves, prefer view_dxf (interactive viewer) — if your platform gates it behind user approval, offer it and ask rather than substituting a static render.

No examples provided.

render_doc ~312

Render a drawing in any supported format (DXF or PDF) to a PNG you can look at, detected from its bytes rather than its name. Use this when you do not know which format you have. Renders the first page/sheet by default; pass `space` (a name from a describe reply's `spaces`) to render another one. Some chat UIs do not display the returned image to the user: for URL sources the result also includes a direct image link — show it (e.g. as a markdown image) when they need to see the render. When the user wants to see or explore the drawing themselves, prefer view_dxf (interactive viewer) — if your platform gates it behind user approval, offer it and ask rather than substituting a static render.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

render_dxf ~345

Render a DXF drawing to a PNG image you can look at. Use this to answer visual questions (what does it look like, where is a feature, does it look right) — it returns an image, not text. For structural facts, prefer describe_dxf. For a PDF use render_pdf; if you do not know the format, use render_doc. Renders the first page/sheet by default; pass `space` (a name from a describe reply's `spaces`) to render another one. Some chat UIs do not display the returned image to the user: for URL sources the result also includes a direct image link — show it (e.g. as a markdown image) when they need to see the render. When the user wants to see or explore the drawing themselves, prefer view_dxf (interactive viewer) — if your platform gates it behind user approval, offer it and ask rather than substituting a static render.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

render_pdf ~340

Render a PDF drawing's vector content to a PNG you can look at. Images, shadings, and transparency are not drawn — they are reported by describe_pdf — so this shows line work and text, not a page facsimile. For a DXF use render_dxf; if you do not know the format, use render_doc. Renders the first page/sheet by default; pass `space` (a name from a describe reply's `spaces`) to render another one. Some chat UIs do not display the returned image to the user: for URL sources the result also includes a direct image link — show it (e.g. as a markdown image) when they need to see the render. When the user wants to see or explore the drawing themselves, prefer view_dxf (interactive viewer) — if your platform gates it behind user approval, offer it and ask rather than substituting a static render.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

view_dxf ~281

Open an interactive viewer the user can pan, zoom, and toggle layers in (renders in-chat on MCP Apps-capable hosts). Reads DXF and vector PDF; for a PDF it shows line work and text rather than a page facsimile, so images, shadings, and transparency are absent by design. Use this when the user wants to see or explore the drawing themselves; for your own analysis use a describe_* tool (facts) or a render_* tool (image). The viewer shows only the drawing from this call. Delivery is handled by the widget itself: small drawings are embedded in the result and larger URL-sourced drawings are fetched by the widget through its own tool call — never re-fetch or inline the file for the viewer's sake, and don't blind-retry if the user reports an empty viewer (the viewer posts its actual status back to the conversation context).

NameTypeReqDescription
allow_file_openboolean–Show open-file controls in the viewer (default false: viewer is locked to this drawing)

Common questions

What is the Aspicio MCP server?

Aspicio is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.frontsail-ai/aspicio. DXF and PDF/X-4 for AI agents: structured facts, PNG renders, an interactive in-chat viewer. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://aspicio-api.frontsail.app/mcp).

Is the Aspicio MCP server safe to use?

Aspicio scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. 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 Aspicio MCP server expose?

Aspicio exposes 8 tools: describe_dxf, render_dxf, describe_pdf, render_pdf, describe_doc, and 3 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,223 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Aspicio MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Aspicio without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the Aspicio MCP server still maintained?

Aspicio is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 1 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
