How do I install the MCP CAD Studio server?

MCP CAD Studio runs locally as an npm package, launched with npx -y mcp-cad-studio. 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 · 13 exposed · ~966 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
boolean_models ~55

Create a new model by union, difference, or intersection of two or more saved models.

create_model ~75

Create a separate new CAD model from a declarative parametric shape tree. Do not use this to modify an existing model; load it and call update_model instead. Supports primitives, extrusions, transforms, mesh input, and boolean operations.

delete_model ~88

Permanently delete one saved CAD model. Call list_models or load_model first to identify the exact modelId, and pass expectedRevision when available to avoid deleting a newer edit.

NameTypeReqDescription

Generate a built-in parametric template: bracket, pipe, gear, enclosure, or bolt. To revise a previously generated model, pass its modelId and expectedRevision to regenerate it in place. Omit modelId only when the user wants a separate new model.

update_model ~189

Modify an existing saved model in place while preserving its modelId. Use patches for small edits (example: replace /shape/size/0), or shape to replace the complete definition. Load the model first and pass its expectedRevision. Never call create_model merely to revise an existing model.

Common questions

What is the MCP CAD Studio server?

MCP CAD Studio is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.mario-andreschak/mcp-cad-studio. A self-contained parametric CAD studio MCP server with an interactive MCP App. This page covers its npm package (mcp-cad-studio).

Is the MCP CAD Studio server safe to use?

MCP CAD Studio scores 82 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 October 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. 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 MCP CAD Studio server expose?

MCP CAD Studio exposes 13 tools: studio_ui, list_models, load_model, create_model, generate_model, and 8 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 966 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the MCP CAD Studio server still maintained?

MCP CAD Studio is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 October 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 MCP CAD Studio server under?

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