AlibreObjectModel.Mcp (.NET tool)

AlibreObjectModel.Mcp is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. It exposes the Alibre Design CAD API (parts, sketches, features, parameters) as MCP tools over stdio. Use it from Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP client.
Package ID AlibreObjectModel.Mcp
Command alibre-cad-mcp
Tools 25 (parts, sketches, features, parameters, validation)
Runtime .NET 8+ (Windows only, x64)
License MIT

Requirements

  • Windows x64.
  • Alibre Design 29.x, installed and running. This server drives Alibre over COM. It does not redistribute AlibreX.dll; it loads that at runtime from your licensed Alibre install.
  • .NET 8+ runtime for dotnet tool install, or the .NET 10 SDK for dnx.

Installation

dotnet tool install --global AlibreObjectModel.Mcp

Run it without installing (needs the .NET 10 SDK):

dnx AlibreObjectModel.Mcp --yes

Wiring into an MCP client

Claude Code:

claude mcp add alibre-cad -- alibre-cad-mcp

Claude Desktop (%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "alibre-cad": { "command": "alibre-cad-mcp" }
  }
}

Usage (example tool calls)

add_rectangle_to_sketch sketch_name:"Profile" x1:-50 y1:-30 x2:50 y2:30

v2.0.1 - Added package icon. No functional changes. v2.0.0 - Now built against AlibreObjectModel 2.0.0 (was 1.0.0). No tool was added, removed or changed: all 25 tools keep their exact names and input schemas. Internal migration only - the object model's root and session APIs now return wrapper types, so the server unwraps them with .Native. Added MCP Registry manifest (.mcp/server.json) and mcp-name README tag ahead of publishing to the Official MCP Registry.
