- Issue template config with links to documentation and discussions
- **Dependabot configuration**:
- Weekly updates for Python dependencies, GitHub Actions, and Docker base images
- Grouped updates for development dependencies
- **PyPI package name**: `freecad-robust-mcp` (due to existing `freecad-mcp` on PyPI)
- Install via: `pip install freecad-robust-mcp`
- CLI command remains `freecad-mcp`
- Python import remains `import freecad_mcp`
- **Enhanced PyPI and Docker Hub metadata**:
- Updated pyproject.toml with expanded classifiers, keywords, and URLs for better discoverability
- Added maintainers, Changelog URL, and Docker Hub URL to project metadata
- Added `py.typed` marker file for PEP 561 typed package support
- Enhanced Dockerfile with full OCI image labels (vendor, authors, documentation, base image)

- All existing shortcut commands preserved (e.g., `just test`, `just lint`, `just check`)
- New module syntax available: `just docker::build`, `just quality::secrets`, etc.
- Use `just --list <module>` to see commands in a specific module
- **Improved cut face detection for curved objects in CutObjectForMagnets macro**:
- `_find_cut_face_name()` now uses a two-strategy approach:
- Strategy 1: Match faces by normal direction (works for flat/planar objects)
- Strategy 2: Match faces by proximity to cut plane (works for curved objects like vases)
- For curved objects where no face has a matching normal (dot product < 0.99), the function
now finds faces whose center lies closest to the cut plane
- This fixes the "Could not find cut face" error when cutting vases and other curved shapes at angles
- Tested successfully with a vase model cut at 30° angle using a datum plane
- **Undo support for CutObjectForMagnets macro**:
- Each major step is now wrapped in a FreeCAD transaction
- Users can undo individual steps via Edit → Undo in the GUI
- Transaction steps: Create Bottom Body, Create Top Body, Create Bottom Hole Sketch, Create Top Hole Sketch, Create Bottom Magnet Holes, Create Top Magnet Holes, Hide Original Object
- If any step fails, the transaction is aborted to prevent partial state
- **VS Code workspace configuration**:
- Added `.vscode/settings.json` with cSpell configuration matching codespell pre-commit
- Custom dictionary includes all project-specific terms from `.codespell-ignore-words.txt`
- Configured Ruff as default Python formatter with format-on-save
- Added `.vscode/extensions.json` recommending Code Spell Checker, Ruff, Pylance, etc.
- **Integration tests for CutObjectForMagnets macro**:
- `test_cut_solid_box_with_partdesign_holes` - Tests cutting solid objects with PartDesign::Hole features
- `test_cut_hollow_cylinder_with_partdesign_holes` - Tests cutting hollow objects (vase-shaped) with PartDesign::Hole
- `test_boolean_hole_creation_fallback` - Tests the `_create_holes_boolean` fallback method
- `test_boolean_vs_partdesign_comparison` - Compares output of both hole creation methods
- `test_single_hole` / `test_many_holes` - Edge case tests for hole count variations
- Tests are in `tests/integration/test_cut_object_for_magnets.py` and run via `just test-integration`
- **Status bar display for MCP bridge in GUI mode**:
- Shows "🔌 MCP Bridge running (XML-RPC:9875) | waiting for connections..." when idle
- Shows "🔌 MCP Bridge active (XML-RPC:9875) | X requests | last: Ys ago" after activity
- Updates every 5 seconds to show current status

- pip installation now shown as primary option for users
- mise/just shown as alternative for developers
- **Improved docs/index.md landing page**:
- Now properly links to all documentation files in the repo
- Added documentation table with descriptions
- Updated quick start, features, and connection modes sections
- CLAUDE.md now documents `uv` package manager usage and `uv run` requirement for Python tools
- Added proper MIT license attribution to files inspired by neka-nat/freecad-mcp:
- `src/freecad_mcp/bridge/xmlrpc.py` - XML-RPC protocol design
- `src/freecad_mcp/freecad_plugin/server.py` - Queue-based thread safety pattern
- **Improved error messaging for connection failures**:
- XML-RPC bridge now provides detailed instructions when FreeCAD plugin is not running
- Error message explains how to start the MCP bridge in FreeCAD
- References the new `just install-macro` command for easy setup
- **New justfile commands for FreeCAD integration**:
- `just install-macro` - Installs StartMCPBridge.FCMacro with dynamic project paths
- `just uninstall-macro` - Removes the installed macro
- `just install-freecad-plugin` - Installs full plugin to FreeCAD Mod directory

- Plugin now detects when Qt is unavailable and uses thread-based queue processing
- New `run_forever()` method for running in headless/console mode
- New `headless_server.py` script for easy headless startup
- Note: Screenshots and view features are not available in headless mode
- **Improved error handling for GUI-dependent tools**:
- All view tools now check `FreeCAD.GuiUp` and return clear error messages in headless mode
- Tools return `{"success": False, "error": "..."}` instead of raising exceptions
- Affected tools: `set_object_visibility`, `set_display_mode`, `set_object_color`,
`zoom_in`, `zoom_out`, `set_camera_position`, `get_screenshot`
- Non-GUI tools (`undo`, `redo`, `recompute`) now also return structured error responses
- **Updated documentation for connection modes**:
- README.md now documents all three modes: `xmlrpc`, `socket`, `embedded`
- Changed default recommended mode from `embedded` to `xmlrpc` (works on all platforms)
- Added `FREECAD_XMLRPC_PORT` environment variable documentation
- Documented platform limitations (embedded mode only works on Linux)
- Updated Python version requirement from 3.12+ to 3.11 (FreeCAD ABI compatibility)
- ARCHITECTURE.md deployment modes updated to reflect current implementation
### Fixed
- **Justfile module working directory issue**:
- Fixed `just freecad::run-headless` and other FreeCAD commands failing with wrong path
- Issue: `$(pwd)` in module recipes returned `just/` directory instead of project root
- Solution: All module files now use `project_root := justfile_directory()` variable
- Added documentation in CLAUDE.md about justfile working directory behavior in modules
- **Cut face detection for re-cutting already-cut objects in CutObjectForMagnets macro**:
- When cutting an object that was previously cut, the macro now correctly identifies the NEW cut face
- Previously, the algorithm only checked face normals but not proximity to the cut plane
- This caused it to potentially select an OLD cut face from a previous operation
- New algorithm uses three strategies with combined normal + distance checks:
1. Planar faces with exact normal match AND close to cut plane (ideal case)
2. Any faces with good normal match close to cut plane (for curved objects)
3. Fallback to best normal match with warning (for edge cases)
- **Sketch attachment failure in CutObjectForMagnets macro**:
- Changed `_find_cut_face_name()` to use `body.BaseFeature` instead of `body.Tip`
- Changed `_create_hole_sketch()` to attach sketches to BaseFeature instead of Tip
- Root cause: When re-running the macro on a failed state, `body.Tip` was the broken
`MagnetHoles` feature (with 0 faces) instead of the solid `BaseFeature`
- This caused the macro to select non-planar faces (Cone, Toroid) instead of the
actual planar cut face, resulting in "Invalid" sketch state with `FlatFace` MapMode
- Now correctly finds Face4 (the planar cut face with dot=1.0) instead of Face81 (Cone)
- **Python version mismatch crash** - Embedded FreeCAD mode was crashing with SIGSEGV
- FreeCAD bundles `libpython3.11.dylib` and requires Python 3.11 for ABI compatibility
- Using Python 3.12+ caused `EXC_BAD_ACCESS` when loading FreeCAD.so (calling `PySys_GetObject` from wrong Python version)
- Changed `.mise.toml` to use Python 3.11 and updated `pyproject.toml` accordingly
- **Embedded mode crashes on macOS** - Even with correct Python version, embedded mode fails
- FreeCAD's `FreeCAD.so` links to `@rpath/libpython3.11.dylib` which conflicts with external Python interpreters
- Documented that embedded mode only works on Linux; macOS/Windows must use `xmlrpc` or `socket` mode
- Updated `.mcp.json` to use `xmlrpc` mode by default
- Added FreeCAD connection modes documentation to CLAUDE.md
- Server startup crash with `AttributeError: 'FastMCP' object has no attribute 'on_startup'`
- Migrated from deprecated `mcp.on_startup()`/`on_shutdown()` hooks to the modern `lifespan` async context manager pattern
- This fix is required for compatibility with MCP SDK 1.25.0+
- Pre-commit hook compatibility issues:
- Ruff UP038: Updated isinstance calls to use modern union syntax
- MyPy: Added type ignore comments for FastMCP dynamic attributes
- Codespell: Added FreeCAD-specific terms to ignore list
- Markdownlint/mdformat: Added mdformat-simple-breaks plugin for consistent horizontal rules
- Justfile commands now use `uv run` prefix for all Python tools (pytest, ruff, mypy, etc.)
- **Headless server import error** - `just run-headless` was failing with `'freecad_mcp' is not a package`
- The `freecad_mcp/__init__.py` imports the MCP SDK which isn't available in FreeCAD's Python environment
- Fixed by importing `FreecadMCPPlugin` directly from the module file instead of through the package hierarchy
- Added explicit `flush=True` to print statements for immediate output in FreeCAD's buffered stdout
- **Headless mode queue processor not running** - XML-RPC `execute` calls would hang indefinitely
- The code was checking for Qt (PySide) availability to determine GUI vs headless mode
- PySide6 is available in FreeCAD headless mode, but Qt timers don't fire without an event loop
- Fixed by using `FreeCAD.GuiUp` to correctly detect headless mode and start the queue processor thread
- **Renamed CutWithConnectors macro to CutObjectForMagnets**:
- Macro file renamed from `CutWithConnectors.FCMacro` to `CutObjectForMagnets.FCMacro`
- Directory renamed from `Cut_with_Connectors` to `Cut_Object_for_Magnets`
- Updated class names: `CutWithConnectorsDialog` → `CutObjectForMagnetsDialog`
- Updated dialog title and UI labels to reference "magnets" instead of "connectors"
- Updated justfile commands to reference new file paths
- All functionality preserved - just a naming update for clarity
- **CutObjectForMagnets macro - hole placement improvements**:
- Changed from spacing-based to count-based hole placement (default: 6 holes)
- Holes now distributed evenly along the perimeter of the cut face
- Both halves now have identical hole positions that align when joined
- Fixed cut face detection to find the correct face at the cut plane (was finding original object faces)
- Fixed hole positioning for hollow objects (ring-shaped cross-sections)
- Safety check correctly rejects holes that would penetrate inner walls on thin-walled objects
- Added smart hole repositioning: when a hole fails the safety check, the macro tries to find a nearby safe position by:
- Moving further inward from the edge (1.5x, 2x, 2.5x, 3x inset)
- Moving along the perimeter to find a thicker section (±5%, ±10%, ±15%, ±20%)
- Hole validation now checks BOTH parts simultaneously to ensure holes align perfectly
- Added minimum hole spacing check: holes must be at least 2x diameter apart (one hole width between them)
- Automatically reduces hole count when requested holes would overlap
- Updated default values: diameter=3mm, depth=3mm, holes=6
- Added dual clearance system with preferred and minimum values:
- "Edge Clearance (Preferred)": default 2mm - used for initial hole placement
- "Edge Clearance (Minimum)": default 0.5mm - used as fallback during repositioning
- Smart repositioning now tries clearances from preferred down to minimum before moving holes
- This keeps holes in ideal positions when possible, only moving closer to edges when necessary
- Dialog now shows body name and type being cut
- Smart plane detection: selecting both object and plane auto-sets the plane as cut plane
- Added object selection combo box: users can now change the object to cut in the dialog (not just from initial selection)
- **CutObjectForMagnets macro - PartDesign::Hole implementation (parametric holes)**:
- Holes now created as native `PartDesign::Hole` features instead of Part boolean operations
- Cut halves created as `PartDesign::Body` objects using `PartDesign::BaseFeature`
- Hole centers defined via `Sketcher::SketchObject` attached to cut face
- Benefits of new approach:
- Holes appear in the feature tree and can be edited after creation
- Change hole diameter/depth by modifying the Hole feature properties
- Sketch shows hole center points for visualization
- Full PartDesign parametric workflow integration
- New helper methods added:
- `_create_body_from_shape()` - Wraps Part::Shape in PartDesign::Body
- `_find_cut_face_name()` - Locates cut face by normal direction
- `_world_to_sketch_coords()` - Transforms world coords to sketch-local 2D
- `_create_hole_sketch()` - Creates sketch with points at hole centers
- `_create_hole_feature()` - Creates PartDesign::Hole from sketch
- Original boolean hole method kept as `_create_holes_boolean()` for potential fallback
- FreeCAD 1.0+ API compatibility fixes:
- Fixed `_create_body_from_shape()` to use `body.BaseFeature = feature` property instead of `body.newObject("PartDesign::BaseFeature")`
- Fixed sketch attachment to use `AttachmentSupport` property instead of deprecated `Support`
- Fixed `_create_hole_feature()` to use `DepthType = "Dimension"` (string) and `HoleCutType = "None"` instead of numeric values
- Tested successfully with solid objects (box) and hollow objects (vase-shaped cylinder)

## For Users
This section covers installation and usage for end users who want to use the MCP server with AI assistants or the standalone FreeCAD macros.
## MCP Server
### Installation
#### Using pip (recommended)
```bash
pip install freecad-robust-mcp
```
#### Using mise and just (from source)
```bash
git clone https://github.com/spkane/freecad-mcp.git
cd freecad-mcp
mise trust
mise install
just setup
```
#### Using Docker
Run the MCP server in a container. This is useful for isolated environments or when you don't want to install Python dependencies on your host.
```bash
# Pull from Docker Hub (when published)
docker pull spkane/freecad-mcp
# Or build locally
git clone https://github.com/spkane/freecad-mcp.git
cd freecad-mcp
docker build -t freecad-mcp .
# Or use just commands (if you have mise/just installed)
just docker::build # Build for local architecture
just docker::build-multi # Build multi-arch (amd64 + arm64)
```
**Note:** The containerized MCP server only supports `xmlrpc` and `socket` modes since FreeCAD runs on your host machine (not in the container). The container connects to FreeCAD via `host.docker.internal`.
### Configuration
#### Environment Variables
| Variable | Description | Default |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | ----------- |
| `FREECAD_MODE` | Connection mode: `xmlrpc`, `socket`, or `embedded` | `xmlrpc` |
| `FREECAD_PATH` | Path to FreeCAD's lib directory (embedded mode only) | Auto-detect |
| `FREECAD_SOCKET_HOST` | Socket/XML-RPC server hostname | `localhost` |
| `FREECAD_SOCKET_PORT` | JSON-RPC socket server port | `9876` |
| `FREECAD_XMLRPC_PORT` | XML-RPC server port | `9875` |
| `FREECAD_TIMEOUT_MS` | Execution timeout in ms | `30000` |
#### Connection Modes
| Mode | Description | Platform Support |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| `xmlrpc` | Connects to FreeCAD via XML-RPC (port 9875) | **All platforms** (recommended) |
| `socket` | Connects via JSON-RPC socket (port 9876) | **All platforms** |
| `embedded` | Imports FreeCAD directly into process | **Linux only** (crashes on macOS) |
**Note:** Embedded mode crashes on macOS because FreeCAD's `FreeCAD.so` links to `@rpath/libpython3.11.dylib`, which conflicts with external Python interpreters. Use `xmlrpc` or `socket` mode on macOS and Windows.
#### MCP Client Configuration
Add something like the following to your MCP client settings. For Claude Code, this is `~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json` or a project `.mcp.json` file:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"freecad": {
"command": "freecad-mcp",
"env": {
"FREECAD_MODE": "xmlrpc"
}
}
}
}
```
If installed from source with mise/uv:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"freecad": {
"command": "/path/to/mise/shims/uv",
"args": ["run", "--project", "/path/to/freecad-mcp", "freecad-mcp"],
"env": {
"FREECAD_MODE": "xmlrpc"
}
}
}
}
```
If using Docker:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"freecad": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run", "--rm", "-i",
"--add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway",
"-e", "FREECAD_MODE=xmlrpc",
"-e", "FREECAD_SOCKET_HOST=host.docker.internal",
"freecad-mcp"
]
}
}
}
```
**Docker configuration notes:**
- `--rm` removes the container after it exits
- `-i` keeps stdin open for MCP communication
- `--add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway` allows the container to connect to FreeCAD on your host (Linux only; macOS/Windows have this built-in)
- `FREECAD_SOCKET_HOST=host.docker.internal` tells the MCP server to connect to FreeCAD on your host machine
### Usage
#### Starting the MCP Bridge in FreeCAD
Before your AI assistant can connect, you need to start the MCP bridge inside FreeCAD:
1. Install the bridge macro (one time):
```bash
# If installed from source:
just install-bridge-macro
# Or manually copy from the macros/Start_MCP_Bridge/ directory
```
1. Start FreeCAD
1. Run the macro: **Macro -> Macros -> StartMCPBridge -> Execute**
1. You should see in the FreeCAD console:
```text
MCP Bridge started!
- XML-RPC: localhost:9875
- Socket: localhost:9876
```
1. Start/restart your MCP client (Claude Code, etc.) - it will connect automatically
#### Running Modes
##### XML-RPC Mode (Recommended)
Connects to a running FreeCAD instance via XML-RPC. Works on all platforms.
```bash
FREECAD_MODE=xmlrpc freecad-mcp
```
##### Socket Mode (JSON-RPC)
Connects via JSON-RPC socket. Works on all platforms.
```bash
FREECAD_MODE=socket freecad-mcp
```
##### Headless Mode
Run FreeCAD in console mode without GUI. Useful for automation.
```bash
# If installed from source:
just run-headless
```
**Note:** Screenshot and view features are not available in headless mode.
##### Embedded Mode (Linux Only)
Runs FreeCAD in-process. **Only works on Linux** - crashes on macOS/Windows.
```bash
FREECAD_MODE=embedded freecad-mcp
```

## FreeCAD Macros
This project includes standalone FreeCAD macros that can be used independently of the MCP server. These are useful for FreeCAD users who want the macros without setting up the full MCP integration.
### CutObjectForMagnets
Intelligently cuts 3D objects along a plane and automatically places magnet holes with built-in surface penetration detection. Perfect for creating multi-part prints that snap together with magnets.
**Features:**
- Smart surface detection - skips holes that would penetrate outer surfaces
- Supports preset planes (XY, XZ, YZ) or custom datum planes for angled cuts
- Count-based hole placement with even distribution
- Dual-part validation ensures alignment
- Non-destructive (original object is hidden, not deleted)
**Installation:**
```bash
# If you have the source:
just install-cut-macro
# Or manually copy CutObjectForMagnets.FCMacro from macros/Cut_Object_for_Magnets/
# to your FreeCAD macro directory:
# macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/FreeCAD/Macro/
# Linux: ~/.local/share/FreeCAD/Macro/
# Windows: %APPDATA%/FreeCAD/Macro/
```
**Usage:**
1. Open your model in FreeCAD
1. Select the object to cut
1. Go to **Macro -> Macros... -> CutObjectForMagnets -> Execute**
1. Configure the cut plane and magnet hole parameters
1. Click **Execute Cut**
**Parameters:**
- **Plane:** XY, XZ, YZ, or a model datum plane
- **Offset:** Distance from origin (for preset planes)
- **Hole diameter:** Size of magnet holes (e.g., 6.2mm for 6mm magnets)
- **Hole depth:** How deep holes go into each piece
- **Number of holes:** Total holes to create (evenly distributed)
- **Edge clearance:** Distance from hole edge to outer surface
See [macros/Cut_Object_for_Magnets/README-CutObjectForMagnets.md](macros/Cut_Object_for_Magnets/README-CutObjectForMagnets.md) for detailed documentation.
**Uninstall:**
```bash
just uninstall-cut-macro
```
---
## For Developers
This section covers development setup, contributing, and working with the codebase.
## MCP Server Development
### Prerequisites
- [mise](https://mise.jdx.dev/) - Tool version manager
- [FreeCAD](https://www.freecadweb.org/) 0.21+ or 1.0+
### Initial Setup
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/spkane/freecad-mcp.git
cd freecad-mcp
# Install mise (if not already installed)
curl https://mise.run | sh
# Install all tools (Python 3.11, uv, just, pre-commit)
mise trust
mise install
# Set up the development environment
just setup
```
This installs:
- **Python 3.11** - Required for FreeCAD ABI compatibility
- **uv** - Fast Python package manager
- **just** - Command runner for development workflows
- **pre-commit** - Git hooks for code quality
### MCP Client Configuration (Development)
Create a `.mcp.json` file in the project directory:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"freecad": {
"command": "/path/to/mise/shims/uv",
"args": ["run", "--project", "/path/to/freecad-mcp", "freecad-mcp"],
"env": {
"FREECAD_MODE": "xmlrpc",
"FREECAD_SOCKET_HOST": "localhost",
"FREECAD_XMLRPC_PORT": "9875",
"PATH": "/path/to/mise/shims:/opt/homebrew/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin"
}
}
}
}
```
**Replace the paths with your actual paths:**
| Placeholder | Description | Example (macOS) |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------------ | ------------------------------ |
| `/path/to/mise/shims/uv` | Full path to uv via mise shims | `~/.local/share/mise/shims/uv` |
| `/path/to/freecad-mcp` | Project directory | `~/dev/freecad-mcp` |
| `/path/to/mise/shims` | mise shims directory for PATH | `~/.local/share/mise/shims` |
**Finding your mise shims path:**
```bash
mise where uv | sed 's|/installs/.*|/shims|'
# Or simply:
echo ~/.local/share/mise/shims
```
### Development Workflow
Commands are organized into modules. Use `just --list` to see all shortcuts, or `just --list <module>` to see module-specific commands.
```bash
# Show all available commands
just --list
# Show commands in a specific module
just --list docker
just --list quality
just --list testing
just --list freecad
# Install/update dependencies
just install
# Run all checks (linting, type checking, tests)
just all
# Individual checks (shortcuts to module commands)
just lint # Run ruff linter (quality::lint)
just typecheck # Run mypy type checker (quality::typecheck)
just test # Run unit tests (testing::unit)
just check # Run all pre-commit hooks (quality::check)
# Format code
just format
# Run with debug logging
just run-debug
# Docker commands
just docker::build # Build image for local architecture
just docker::build-multi # Build multi-arch image (amd64 + arm64)
just docker::run # Run container
```
### Running FreeCAD with the MCP Bridge
#### GUI Mode (recommended for development)
```bash
# Install the bridge macro
just install-bridge-macro
# Start FreeCAD with auto-started bridge
just run-gui
# Or start FreeCAD manually, then:
# Macro -> Macros -> StartMCPBridge -> Execute
```
#### Headless Mode (for automation/CI)
```bash
just run-headless
```
### Running Tests
```bash
# Unit tests only (no FreeCAD required)
just test
# Unit tests with coverage
just test-cov
# Integration tests (requires running FreeCAD bridge)
just test-integration
# All tests with automatic FreeCAD startup
just integration
```
### Code Quality
The project uses strict code quality checks via pre-commit:
- **Ruff** - Linting and formatting
- **MyPy** - Type checking
- **Bandit** - Security scanning
- **Codespell** - Spell checking
- **Secrets scanning** - Gitleaks, detect-secrets, TruffleHog
```bash
# Run all pre-commit hooks
just check
# Run security/secrets scans
just security
just secrets
```
---
## Macro Development
### StartMCPBridge Macro
The StartMCPBridge macro is required for the MCP server to communicate with FreeCAD. Developers working on the MCP integration should understand how it works.
**Location:** `macros/Start_MCP_Bridge/`
**What it does:**

1. [Tips and Best Practices](#tips-and-best-practices)
---
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
1. **FreeCAD installed** - Version 1.0.x or later
1. **An MCP client** (Claude Code, or other MCP-compatible AI assistant) configured
1. **Python 3.11** - Must match FreeCAD's bundled Python version
### Starting FreeCAD with MCP Bridge
You have two options depending on your workflow:
#### Headless Mode (Command-line only)
Best for automated workflows, batch processing, or when you don't need visual feedback.
```bash
just run-headless
```
**Capabilities:** All modeling operations, export, scripting.
**Limitations:** No screenshots, no visual feedback, no color/visibility control.
#### GUI Mode (Full graphical interface)
Best for interactive design work where you want to see results visually.
```bash
just run-gui
```
**Capabilities:** Everything headless mode can do, plus screenshots, colors, view control.
### Verifying Connection
Once FreeCAD is running with the MCP bridge, you can verify the connection:
```text
"Check the FreeCAD connection status"
```
Claude will use the `get_connection_status` tool to confirm the bridge is working.
---
## Running Modes
### Headless vs GUI Mode
| Feature | Headless Mode | GUI Mode |
| ------------------------ | ------------- | -------- |
| Object creation | Yes | Yes |
| Boolean operations | Yes | Yes |
| Export (STEP, STL, etc.) | Yes | Yes |
| Save documents | Yes | Yes |
| Screenshots | No | Yes |
| Object colors | No | Yes |
| Object visibility | No | Yes |
| Camera control | No | Yes |
| Interactive selection | No | Yes |
### Detecting the Current Mode
When working with Claude, it will automatically detect whether FreeCAD is in GUI or headless mode and adapt accordingly. GUI-only operations will return informative errors in headless mode rather than crashing.
---
## Basic Workflows
### Creating a Document
Every FreeCAD project needs a document. You can ask Claude:
```text
"Create a new FreeCAD document called 'MyProject'"
```
Claude will use the `create_document` tool.
### Creating Simple Shapes
Ask Claude to create primitive shapes:
```text
"Create a box that's 50mm long, 30mm wide, and 10mm tall"
"Add a cylinder with radius 5mm and height 20mm"
"Create a sphere with 15mm radius"
```
### Positioning Objects
Move and rotate objects:
```text
"Move the box to position (100, 50, 0)"
"Rotate the cylinder 45 degrees around the Z axis"
```
### Boolean Operations
Combine shapes:
```text
"Fuse the box and cylinder together"
"Cut a hole through the box using the cylinder"
"Find the intersection of the two shapes"
```
### Saving and Exporting
```text
"Save the document as MyProject.FCStd"
"Export the model to STEP format"
"Export for 3D printing as STL"
```
---
## Object Creation Examples
### Example 1: Simple Box with Hole
**Request:**
```text
Create a 50x50x20mm box with a 10mm diameter hole through the center.
```
**What Claude does:**
1. Creates a document
1. Creates a box (50x50x20)
1. Creates a cylinder (radius 5, height 30) positioned at center
1. Performs boolean cut operation
1. Returns the result
### Example 2: Pipe/Tube Shape
**Request:**
```text
Create a pipe with outer diameter 40mm, inner diameter 30mm, and length 100mm.
```
**What Claude does:**
1. Creates outer cylinder (radius 20, height 100)
1. Creates inner cylinder (radius 15, height 100)
1. Cuts inner from outer to create hollow tube
### Example 3: L-Bracket
**Request:**
```text
Create an L-shaped bracket:
- Horizontal part: 100mm x 50mm x 5mm
- Vertical part: 5mm x 50mm x 80mm standing on the horizontal part
```
**What Claude does:**
1. Creates horizontal box
1. Creates vertical box positioned at correct location
1. Fuses them together
---
## PartDesign Workflow
For parametric modeling that maintains design history, use the PartDesign workflow.
### Understanding PartDesign Concepts
**Body**: A container for a single solid model built from features.
**Sketch**: A 2D drawing that defines profiles for 3D operations.
**Features**: Operations like Pad (extrude), Pocket (cut), Fillet, etc.
### Basic PartDesign Example
**Request:**
```text
Create a parametric mounting plate:
1. Start with a PartDesign body
2. Create a sketch on the XY plane with a 100x60mm rectangle
3. Pad it 8mm thick
4. Add four 5mm holes near each corner for mounting screws
5. Fillet all edges with 2mm radius
```
**What Claude does:**
1. `create_partdesign_body()` - Creates the Body container
1. `create_sketch(body_name="Body", plane="XY_Plane")` - Creates attached sketch
1. `add_sketch_rectangle(...)` - Adds the profile geometry
1. `pad_sketch(sketch_name="Sketch", length=8)` - Extrudes to solid
1. Creates new sketches with points for hole locations
1. `create_hole(...)` for each mounting hole
1. `fillet_edges(...)` - Rounds the edges
### Revolving Profiles
**Request:**
```text
Create a turned part:
- Draw a profile on the XZ plane
- Revolve it 360 degrees around the X axis
```
**What Claude does:**
1. Creates body and sketch on XZ plane
1. Draws the profile using lines and arcs
1. Uses `revolution_sketch()` to create the solid
### Pattern Operations
**Request:**
```text
Create a plate with a row of 6 holes spaced 15mm apart.
```
**What Claude does:**
1. Creates the base plate
1. Creates one hole feature
1. Uses `linear_pattern()` to repeat the hole
---
## Complete Example: Mounting Bracket
This detailed example shows a complete workflow for creating a practical part.
### Design Requirements
Create a mounting bracket with:
- Base plate: 80mm x 60mm x 5mm
- Vertical support: 5mm thick, 50mm tall, 60mm wide
- Two mounting holes (6mm diameter) on the base
- One slot (10mm x 20mm) on the vertical support
- 3mm fillets on external corners
### Step-by-Step Workflow
#### Step 1: Ask Claude to create the bracket
```text
Create a mounting bracket with the following specifications:
Base plate:
- Size: 80mm x 60mm x 5mm
- Two 6mm diameter mounting holes, centered 15mm from each short edge
Vertical support:
- Attached to one end of the base
- 5mm thick, 60mm wide, 50mm tall
- One slot: 10mm wide x 20mm tall, centered
Finish:
- 3mm fillet on all outer edges
- Export as STEP file when done
```
#### Step 2: Claude's approach
Claude will break this down into manageable operations:
```python
# 1. Create document and PartDesign body
create_document(name="MountingBracket")
create_partdesign_body(name="Body")
# 2. Create base plate sketch and pad
create_sketch(body_name="Body", plane="XY_Plane", name="BaseSketch")
add_sketch_rectangle(sketch_name="BaseSketch", x=0, y=0, width=80, height=60)
pad_sketch(sketch_name="BaseSketch", length=5)
# 3. Add vertical support
create_sketch(body_name="Body", plane="XZ_Plane", name="SupportSketch")
# ... add geometry
pad_sketch(sketch_name="SupportSketch", length=60)
# 4. Add mounting holes
create_sketch(body_name="Body", plane="XY_Plane", name="HoleSketch")
add_sketch_point(sketch_name="HoleSketch", x=15, y=30)
add_sketch_point(sketch_name="HoleSketch", x=65, y=30)
create_hole(sketch_name="HoleSketch", diameter=6, hole_type="ThroughAll")
# 5. Add slot (as pocket)
create_sketch(body_name="Body", plane="Face...", name="SlotSketch")
add_sketch_rectangle(...)
pocket_sketch(sketch_name="SlotSketch", length=5, type="ThroughAll")
# 6. Add fillets
fillet_edges(object_name="...", radius=3)
# 7. Export
export_step(file_path="/path/to/bracket.step")
```
#### Step 3: View the result (GUI mode)
```text
Take a screenshot of the bracket from an isometric view
```
Claude will use `get_screenshot(view_angle="Isometric")` to capture and display the result.
---
## Tips and Best Practices
### 1. Be Specific with Dimensions
**Good:** "Create a box 50mm x 30mm x 10mm"
**Vague:** "Create a small box"
### 2. Specify Units
FreeCAD uses millimeters by default. Always include units to avoid confusion:
```text
"Create a cylinder with 25.4mm (1 inch) diameter"
```
### 3. Use Meaningful Names
```text
"Create a box named 'BasePlate' and a cylinder named 'MountingHole'"
```
This makes it easier to reference objects later.
### 4. Work Incrementally
For complex parts, build step by step:
1. Create the basic shape
1. Verify it looks correct
1. Add features one at a time
1. Check after each major operation
### 5. Save Frequently
```text
"Save the document"
```
FreeCAD can crash, and you don't want to lose work.
### 6. Use PartDesign for Parametric Parts
If you might need to modify dimensions later, use the PartDesign workflow with sketches rather than direct Part operations.
### 7. Export to Multiple Formats
For manufacturing or 3D printing:
```text
"Export as STEP for CNC machining and STL for 3D printing"
```
### 8. Use the execute_python Tool for Advanced Operations
For operations not covered by the standard tools, Claude can execute custom Python:
```text
"Calculate the volume and center of mass of the part"
```
Claude will use `execute_python()` to run the necessary FreeCAD Python commands.
### 9. Check GUI Mode for Visual Features
Before asking for screenshots or colors:
```text
"Is FreeCAD running in GUI mode?"
```
### 10. Use Patterns for Repetitive Features
Instead of creating many individual features:
```text
"Create one hole and pattern it in a 4x3 grid with 20mm spacing"
```
---
## Common Operations Quick Reference
| Task | How to Ask |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| Create box | "Create a box 50x30x10mm" |
| Create cylinder | "Create a cylinder with 10mm radius and 20mm height" |
| Move object | "Move MyBox to position (100, 50, 0)" |
| Rotate object | "Rotate MyCylinder 45 degrees around Z axis" |
| Boolean union | "Fuse Box and Cylinder together" |
| Boolean subtract | "Cut Cylinder from Box" |
| Create hole | "Add a 6mm through hole at (25, 15)" |
| Fillet edges | "Add 3mm fillet to all edges" |
| Chamfer edges | "Add 2mm chamfer to selected edges" |
| Export STEP | "Export to STEP format" |
| Export STL | "Export for 3D printing" |
| Save document | "Save the document as MyPart.FCStd" |
| Screenshot | "Take a screenshot from the front view" (GUI mode only) |
| Change color | "Make the box red" (GUI mode only) |
---
## Troubleshooting
### "GUI not available" Error
You're running in headless mode and trying to use a GUI-only feature. Either:
- Switch to GUI mode: `just run-gui`
- Use an alternative approach (e.g., skip visual operations)
### Objects Not Appearing
Make sure to recompute the document:
```text
"Recompute the document"
```
### Boolean Operations Failing
Ensure:
1. Both objects have valid shapes
1. The objects actually intersect
1. Objects are in the same document
### Sketch Errors
Sketches need to be fully constrained for PartDesign operations. Ask Claude to:
```text
"Check if the sketch is fully constrained"
```
### Connection Issues
If the MCP bridge isn't responding:
1. Check FreeCAD is running with the bridge started
1. Verify ports 9875 (XML-RPC) and 9876 (socket) are available
1. Restart FreeCAD with `just run-gui` or `just run-headless`

# Cut Object for Magnets - FreeCAD Macro
![Macro Icon](CutObjectForMagnets.svg)
**Version:** 1.0.0
**FreeCAD Version:** 0.19 or later
**License:** MIT
## Overview
This FreeCAD macro intelligently cuts 3D objects along a plane and automatically places magnet holes (for magnets, dowels, pins, etc.) with built-in surface penetration detection. Unlike simple cutting tools, this macro ensures magnet holes won't accidentally break through the outer surface of your object.
Perfect for creating multi-part prints that snap together with magnets or alignment pins!
## Quick Visual Guide
### Method 1: Preset Planes (Simple)
```text
Select Object → Run Macro → Choose XY/XZ/YZ → Set Offset → Execute
```
Use for: Axis-aligned cuts, quick splits, standard orientations
### Method 2: Model Planes (Advanced - ANY Angle)
```text
Create Datum Plane (angled as needed) → Select Object → Run Macro →
Choose "Model Plane" → Select Your Plane → Execute
```
Use for: Angled cuts, following model geometry, complex orientations
### Quick Tip: Select Both Object AND Plane Together
```text
Select Object + Plane (Ctrl+Click) → Run Macro → Plane auto-selected!
```
The macro automatically detects when you select both an object and a plane together.
---
## Features
- **Smart Surface Detection** - Automatically skips holes that would penetrate the object's outer surface
- **Smart Repositioning** - When a hole would penetrate, tries nearby positions (further inward or along perimeter)
- **Dual-Part Validation** - Validates each hole position works for BOTH parts before creating any holes
- **Minimum Spacing** - Ensures holes are at least 2x diameter apart (one hole width between them)
- **Automatic Alignment** - Magnet holes on both pieces are perfectly aligned
- **Flexible Plane Selection** - Use preset planes (XY/XZ/YZ) OR any datum plane/face from your model
- **Angled Cuts** - Cut along any angle by selecting a datum plane
- **Even Distribution** - Holes are evenly spaced around the perimeter of the cut face
- **Count-Based Placement** - Specify exact number of holes (default: 6) for precise control
- **Safety Clearance** - Maintains minimum distance from outer surfaces
- **Visual Feedback** - Progress bar and status messages
- **Non-Destructive** - Original object is hidden, not deleted

1. Navigate to: `%APPDATA%\FreeCAD\Macro\`
1. Copy `CutObjectForMagnets.FCMacro` to this folder
1. (Optional) Copy `CutObjectForMagnets.svg` to the same folder
---
## How to Use
### Quick Start Guide
#### Step 1: Prepare Your Model
1. Open your model in FreeCAD (or create/import one)
1. Ensure the object is a **solid** (not a shell or surface)
1. **Select the object** in the 3D view or tree view
**Tip:** If you imported an STL, it should already be a valid solid. If you created the model in FreeCAD, make sure you created a solid object in the Part workbench.
#### Step 2: Launch the Macro
- **From Macro Menu:** Macro → Macros... → Select "CutObjectForMagnets" → Execute
- **From Toolbar:** Click the macro icon (if you created a toolbar button)
#### Step 3: Configure Cut Plane
The dialog will open with several configuration sections.
**Plane Type Settings:**
You have two options for defining your cut plane:
**Option 1: Preset Plane** (Simple, axis-aligned cuts)
- **Plane:** Choose orientation
- `XY` - Horizontal cut (most common)
- `XZ` - Vertical cut (front-to-back)
- `YZ` - Vertical cut (left-to-right)
- **Offset:** Position of the cut plane from origin (in mm)
- `0` - Cut through the origin
- Positive values move the plane in the positive axis direction
- Negative values move it in the negative axis direction
**Finding the Right Offset:**
1. Note your object's bounding box dimensions (visible in FreeCAD)
1. If your object is centered at origin and you want to cut in half:
- Use offset = `0`
1. If your object is positioned elsewhere:
- Look at the coordinate where you want to cut
- Use that value as the offset
**Option 2: Model Plane** (Advanced, angled cuts)
Select any datum plane or planar face from your model:
**Using Datum Planes:**
1. Create a datum plane first (if not already in model):
- Go to **Part Design** workbench
- Click **Create datum plane** (or Part → Datum → Datum Plane)
- Position and angle the plane where you want to cut
- Exit datum plane creation
1. In the macro dialog:
- Select **"Model Plane"** from Plane Type
- Choose your datum plane from the dropdown
- The offset field is disabled (plane position defines the cut)
**Using Object Faces:**
- Any planar face on any object in your document can be used as a cut plane
- Select from the dropdown: "Face: [ObjectName] (Face1, Face2, etc.)"
- Useful for cutting along existing geometry
**Examples of Model Plane Cuts:**
- Cut at 45° angle - Create datum plane rotated 45° around X or Y axis
- Cut following surface contour - Select a planar face on reference geometry
- Cut perpendicular to cylinder axis - Use cylinder end face
- Complex multi-angle cuts - Create multiple datum planes for different cuts
#### Step 4: Configure Magnet Holes
**Hole Parameters:**
- **Diameter:** The diameter of your magnet (mm)
- For 6mm magnets: Use `6.2mm` (adds 0.2mm clearance)
- For 3mm dowels: Use `3.1mm` (adds 0.1mm clearance)
- For friction fit: Use exact diameter or slightly smaller
- **Depth:** How deep holes go into each piece (mm)
- For magnets: Use magnet thickness + 0.5mm
- For dowel pins: Usually half the dowel length
- **Important:** Each piece gets this depth
- **Number of Holes:** Total number of magnet holes to create (default: 6)
- Holes are evenly distributed around the perimeter of the cut face
- More holes = stronger joint, but requires more magnets
- Recommended: `4-6` for small objects, `8-12` for large objects
- **Edge Clearance (Preferred):** Ideal distance from hole edge to outer surface (mm)
- Default: `2mm` - holes are initially placed with this clearance
- This is the distance the macro tries to maintain for optimal part strength
- Larger values = more material around holes = stronger parts
- **Edge Clearance (Minimum):** Absolute minimum acceptable clearance (mm)
- Default: `0.5mm` - the smallest allowable clearance
- When smart repositioning can't place a hole at preferred clearance, it will try progressively smaller clearances down to this minimum
- Prevents holes from getting too close to outer surfaces
- For thin-walled objects: Increase this value to prevent breakthrough
#### Step 5: Execute the Cut
1. Review all parameters
1. Click **"Execute Cut"**
1. Watch the progress bar
1. Check status messages for any skipped holes
#### Step 6: Review Results
The macro creates two new objects:
- `[ObjectName]_Bottom` - Lower piece with holes
- `[ObjectName]_Top` - Upper piece with holes
Your original object is **hidden** (not deleted) - you can show it again from the tree view if needed.
---
## Parameter Reference Guide
### Understanding Edge Clearance
The macro uses a **dual clearance system** to balance ideal hole placement with flexibility:
- **Preferred Clearance (2mm default):** Initial hole placement uses this value
- **Minimum Clearance (0.5mm default):** Fallback when preferred clearance fails
**How it works:**
1. Holes are first placed using the preferred clearance
1. If a hole fails the safety check at preferred clearance, smart repositioning kicks in
1. The macro tries progressively smaller clearances (from preferred down to minimum)
1. Only if all clearance levels fail does the macro try moving the hole position
The safety check ensures:
```text
hole_radius + depth + clearance < distance_to_nearest_surface
```
**Visual Example:**
```text
[Outer Surface]
|
clearance (preferred: 2mm, min: 0.5mm)
|
[Hole boundary] ← Must not touch outer surface
|
actual hole
```
If a hole would violate even the minimum clearance, it's automatically skipped and you'll see a warning in the console.
### Calculating Depth for Magnets
For magnets that should be flush or recessed:
```text
depth = magnet_thickness + recess_amount
Examples:
- 2mm thick magnet, flush: depth = 2.5mm (0.5mm tolerance)
- 3mm thick magnet, 0.5mm recess: depth = 3.5mm + 0.5mm = 4mm
```
**Important:** Total depth in both pieces should accommodate the magnet fully:
```text
total_depth = depth_bottom + depth_top
total_depth should be >= magnet_thickness
```
### Recommended Hole Count Guidelines
| Object Size | Recommended Holes | Notes |
| ----------------- | ----------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| Small (\<50mm) | 4-6 | Fewer holes for small surfaces |
| Medium (50-150mm) | 6-10 | Default of 6 works well |
| Large (>150mm) | 10-16 | More holes for stronger connection |
| Thin-walled | 4-6 | Use smaller diameter holes |
---
## Common Use Cases
### Case 1: Large Print Split for Bed Size
**Scenario:** 300mm diameter object, need to split for 250mm print bed
**Settings:**
```text
Plane: XY
Offset: 0 (if centered) or half the object height
Diameter: 6.2mm (for 6×2mm magnets)
Depth: 2.5mm
Number of Holes: 12
Clearance: 3mm
```
**Result:** Two pieces that stack vertically with 12 evenly-spaced magnets for alignment
---
### Case 2: Modular Terrain Tiles
**Scenario:** 100×100mm terrain tiles with magnetic edges
**Settings:**
```text
Plane: XY or YZ (depending on desired split)
Offset: 50mm (half the tile dimension)
Diameter: 3.2mm (for 3×1mm magnets)
Depth: 1.5mm
Number of Holes: 6
Clearance: 2mm
```
**Result:** Tiles that connect magnetically at edges with 6 evenly-spaced magnets
---
### Case 3: Dowel Pin Alignment for Large Parts
**Scenario:** Splitting a large miniature or sculpture
**Settings:**
```text
Plane: XY
Offset: [at desired split point]
Diameter: 3.1mm (for 3mm brass pins)
Depth: 8mm (16mm pins, 8mm per side)
Number of Holes: 4
Clearance: 3mm
```
**Result:** Precise alignment with 4 evenly-spaced removable pins
---
### Case 4: Angled Cut with Datum Plane (45° Wedge)
**Scenario:** Splitting a wedge-shaped console at a 45° angle
**Preparation:**
1. Switch to **Part Design** workbench
1. Create datum plane:
- Click **Create datum plane** (or Part → Datum → Create datum plane)
- In the dialog:
- Attachment mode: "Translate origin"
- Angle: Rotate 45° around X-axis
- Position: Move to desired cut location
- Click **OK**
1. Name it "CutPlane45" (optional but helpful)
**Settings:**
```text
Plane Type: Model Plane
Model Plane: Plane: CutPlane45
Diameter: 6.2mm (for 6×2mm magnets)
Depth: 3mm
Number of Holes: 8
Clearance: 3mm
```
**Result:** Clean 45° angled cut with 8 evenly-spaced magnet holes
**Pro Tip:** You can visually see where the cut will be by looking at the datum plane position before running the macro!
---
## Troubleshooting
### Error: "Please select an object to cut"
**Solution:** Click on your object in the 3D view before running the macro.
---
### Error: "Selected object does not have a shape"
**Solution:** You selected a group or annotation. Select the actual 3D object (should be under Part or Body in the tree).
---
### Error: "Failed to cut object"
**Possible causes:**
1. **Invalid mesh** - The object has geometry errors
- Try: Edit → Preferences → Part Design → "Automatically refine model after boolean operation"
- Or manually: Part → Refine Shape
1. **Offset is outside object bounds** - The cut plane doesn't intersect the object
- Check your object's position and bounding box
- Adjust offset to actually pass through the object
1. **Model plane doesn't intersect** - The selected datum plane or face doesn't pass through the object
- Verify the plane position in the 3D view
- Create a new datum plane that actually cuts through the object
---
### Error: "No planes available"
**Solution:** You selected "Model Plane" but no datum planes or planar faces exist in the document.
**Fix:**
1. Create a datum plane:
- **Part Design → Create datum plane**
- Position and angle as needed
- Click OK
1. Or switch to "Preset Plane" mode
1. Re-run the macro
---
### Warning: "Skipping hole at [position] - would penetrate surface"
**This is normal!** The macro is protecting you from holes that would break through.
**If too many holes are skipped:**
1. **Increase edge clearance** (e.g., from 2mm to 4mm)
1. **Increase spacing** (fewer holes, but safer)
1. **Reduce hole depth** (less likely to penetrate)
1. **Check your object** - might be too thin for the hole size
---
### Error: "No valid hole positions found"
**Possible causes:**
1. **Cut surface too small** - Not enough room for even one hole
- Solution: Reduce spacing or hole diameter
1. **Object too thin** - All positions would penetrate
- Solution: Reduce hole depth or increase clearance less aggressively
1. **Complex geometry** - Cut surface is irregular
- Solution: Manually place holes in FreeCAD after cutting
---
## Advanced Tips & Best Practices
### Creating Perfect Datum Planes
**For Angled Cuts:**
1. **Simple Rotation Method:**
```text
Part Design → Create datum plane
- Reference: XY plane (or any base plane)
- Attachment offset → Rotation:
- Around X: Tilts forward/back
- Around Y: Tilts left/right
- Around Z: Spins horizontally
- Position: Translation Z/Y/X to move the plane
```
1. **Align to Edges/Vertices:**
```text
Part Design → Create datum plane
- Attachment mode: "Three points"
- Select 3 points on your model
- Plane will pass through all three points
```
### Choosing the Right Clearance
The dual clearance system gives you fine-grained control:
**Preferred Clearance (default 2mm):**
- Sets how far from edges holes are initially placed
- Increase for stronger parts (more material around holes)
- Decrease if you need holes closer to edges
**Minimum Clearance (default 0.5mm):**
- The absolute minimum acceptable distance from edges
- Increase for thin-walled objects to prevent breakthrough
- Should always be ≤ preferred clearance
**Guidelines by object type:**
- **Thin-walled objects** (2-4mm walls): Preferred=2mm, Minimum=1mm
- **Thick objects** (>10mm walls): Preferred=3mm, Minimum=0.5mm (defaults work well)
- **Irregular shapes:** Preferred=4-5mm, Minimum=2mm to be safe
### Magnet Installation Tips
After printing and cutting:
1. Test fit magnets - they should slide in smoothly
1. If too tight: Use a drill bit to clean out the holes slightly
1. If too loose: Use CA glue or epoxy to secure
1. **Check polarity!** - Mark magnet orientation before gluing
---
## Technical Details
### How Surface Penetration Detection Works
For each potential hole position, the macro:
1. Creates a test cylinder with radius = `(diameter/2) + clearance`
1. Extends the cylinder to depth = `hole_depth + clearance`
1. Performs boolean intersection with the part
1. If intersection volume < 99% of test cylinder volume → hole would penetrate → skip it
This ensures holes only go where they're safe!
### Coordinate System
- **Origin (0,0,0):** FreeCAD document origin
- **Cut planes** pass through a point at the specified offset:
- XY plane: Point = (0, 0, offset)
- XZ plane: Point = (0, offset, 0)
- YZ plane: Point = (offset, 0, 0)
### Hole Direction
- **Bottom piece:** Holes point UP (toward cut plane)
- **Top piece:** Holes point DOWN (toward cut plane)
- Both sets align perfectly at the cut interface
---

# Start MCP Bridge - FreeCAD Macro
**Version:** 1.0.0
**FreeCAD Version:** 0.21 or later
**License:** MIT
## Overview
This FreeCAD macro starts the MCP (Model Context Protocol) bridge server, enabling integration between AI assistants (Claude, GPT, and other MCP-compatible tools) and FreeCAD. Once running, AI assistants can control FreeCAD, create and modify 3D models, execute Python code, and more.
## Quick Start
### Installation
```bash
# From the freecad-mcp project directory
just install-bridge-macro
```
### Usage
1. Start FreeCAD
1. Go to **Macro -> Macros...**
1. Select **StartMCPBridge**
1. Click **Execute**
You should see in the FreeCAD console:
```text
MCP Bridge started!
- XML-RPC: localhost:9875
- Socket: localhost:9876
You can now use AI assistants with FreeCAD.
```
### Connecting Your MCP Client
After starting the bridge, configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Code) with:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"freecad": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "--project", "/path/to/freecad-mcp", "freecad-mcp"],
"env": {
"FREECAD_MODE": "xmlrpc"
}
}
}
}
```
## Connection Modes
The bridge starts two servers:
| Port | Protocol | Description |
| ---- | -------- | ------------------------------------- |
| 9875 | XML-RPC | Primary connection mode (recommended) |
| 9876 | JSON-RPC | Alternative socket-based connection |
Configure your MCP client's `FREECAD_MODE` environment variable:
- `xmlrpc` (default) - Uses port 9875
- `socket` - Uses port 9876
## Alternative: Automatic Startup
Instead of running the macro manually each time, you can:
### Option 1: Use `just run-gui`
```bash
just run-gui
```
This starts FreeCAD with the bridge auto-started.
### Option 2: Use `just run-headless`
```bash
just run-headless
```
This starts FreeCAD in headless/console mode with the bridge running. Useful for automation and CI/CD.
## Troubleshooting
### Error: "MCP Bridge macro not properly installed"
The macro wasn't installed correctly. Run:
```bash
just install-bridge-macro
```
### Error: "Failed to import MCP Bridge module"
The freecad-mcp project path is incorrect or the module isn't installed. Ensure:
1. You installed using `just install-bridge-macro` from the project directory
1. The project's Python dependencies are installed (`uv sync`)
### Bridge won't start
Check the FreeCAD console for error messages. Common issues:
1. **Port already in use** - Another instance is running, or another application is using ports 9875/9876
1. **Python path issues** - The project src directory isn't accessible
### MCP client can't connect
1. Ensure the bridge is running (check FreeCAD console)
1. Verify your MCP client configuration
1. Restart your MCP client after configuration changes
## Uninstallation
```bash
just uninstall-bridge-macro
```
## Technical Details
The macro:
1. Adds the freecad-mcp project source to Python's path
1. Imports and instantiates the `FreecadMCPPlugin`
1. Starts both XML-RPC and JSON-RPC servers
1. Registers handlers for executing Python code, managing documents, creating objects, etc.
The bridge runs in FreeCAD's main thread using Qt timers for non-blocking operation.

## Part Description
{description}
## Recommended Approach
### 1. Create a New Document
First, create a new document for this part:
- Use `create_document` with a descriptive name
### 2. Set Up PartDesign Body
Create a PartDesign body to contain the parametric features:
- Use `create_partdesign_body` to create the body container
- This enables the parametric workflow with features
### 3. Create Base Sketch
Design the base profile:
- Use `create_sketch` on the XY plane (or appropriate plane)
- Add geometry with `add_sketch_rectangle`, `add_sketch_circle`, etc.
- Close the sketch when complete
### 4. Extrude the Base
Create the base 3D shape:
- Use `pad_sketch` to extrude the sketch
- Specify length in {units}
### 5. Add Features
Add additional features as needed:
- `pocket_sketch` for cuts/holes
- `fillet_edges` for rounded edges
- `chamfer_edges` for beveled edges
### 6. Verify and Export
When complete:
- Use `inspect_object` to verify dimensions
- Use `get_screenshot` to visualize the result
- Export with `export_step` or `export_stl` as needed
## Units
All dimensions should be specified in **{units}**.

## Target Shape: {shape_type}
## Sketch Plane: {plane}
### Step 1: Create Sketch
Use `create_sketch` with plane="{plane}" to start a new sketch.
### Step 2: Add Geometry
{"#### Rectangle" if shape_type == "rectangle" else ""}
{"Use `add_sketch_rectangle` with:" if shape_type == "rectangle" else ""}
{"- x, y: Starting corner position" if shape_type == "rectangle" else ""}
{"- width, height: Rectangle dimensions" if shape_type == "rectangle" else ""}

{"#### Custom Polygon" if shape_type == "polygon" else ""}
{"Use `execute_python` with Part.makePolygon() for custom shapes." if shape_type == "polygon" else ""}
### Step 3: Constrain the Sketch
For a fully constrained sketch:
- All geometry should have defined positions
- No free degrees of freedom
### Step 4: Close and Use
The sketch can then be:
- Padded (extruded) with `pad_sketch`
- Pocketed (cut) with `pocket_sketch`
- Revolved with `execute_python` using PartDesign Revolution

Boolean operations combine two or more shapes into a new shape.
## Available Operations
### 1. Fuse (Union)
Combines two shapes into one:
```
boolean_operation(
object1="Box",
object2="Cylinder",
operation="fuse",
result_name="FusedShape"
)
```
### 2. Cut (Difference)
Removes the second shape from the first:
```
boolean_operation(
object1="Box",
object2="Cylinder",
operation="cut",
result_name="CutShape"
)
```
### 3. Common (Intersection)
Keeps only the overlapping region:
```
boolean_operation(
object1="Box",
object2="Cylinder",
operation="common",
result_name="CommonShape"
)
```
## Tips
- Shapes must overlap for meaningful results
- The original objects remain in the document
- Use `set_object_visibility` to hide originals after operation
- Recompute the document after boolean operations

## Common Issues and Solutions
### 1. Recompute Errors
**Symptom:** Objects show error state, model doesn't update
**Solution:**
```python
recompute_document() # Force full recompute
```
### 2. Invalid Shape
**Symptom:** Boolean operations fail, export errors
**Diagnosis:**
```python
execute_python('''
obj = FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.getObject("ObjectName")
_result_ = {
"valid": obj.Shape.isValid(),
"type": obj.Shape.ShapeType,
"check": obj.Shape.check() if hasattr(obj.Shape, 'check') else "N/A"
}
''')
```
### 3. Sketch Not Fully Constrained
**Symptom:** Sketch geometry moves unexpectedly
**Check constraints:**
```python
execute_python('''
sketch = FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.getObject("SketchName")
_result_ = {
"dof": sketch.solve(), # Degrees of freedom
"constraint_count": sketch.ConstraintCount,
"geometry_count": sketch.GeometryCount
}
''')
```
### 4. Object Dependencies
**Symptom:** Can't delete object, unexpected behavior
**Check dependencies:**
```python
inspect_object("ObjectName") # Check children and parents
```
### 5. View Not Updating
**Symptom:** Display doesn't match model
**Solution:**
```python
fit_all() # Reset view
get_screenshot() # Force view update
```
## Diagnostic Workflow
1. `list_objects` - See all objects and their states
2. `inspect_object` on problematic objects
3. `get_console_output` - Check for error messages
4. `recompute_document` - Force update
5. `get_screenshot` - Visual verification

## Macro Structure
A FreeCAD macro is a Python script that automates tasks.
### Basic Template
```python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# Macro: MacroName
# Description: What the macro does
import FreeCAD
import FreeCADGui
def main():
# Get active document
doc = FreeCAD.ActiveDocument
if doc is None:
FreeCAD.Console.PrintError("No active document\\n")
return
# Your code here
doc.recompute()
FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage("Macro completed\\n")
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```
## Creating a Macro
Use `create_macro` to save a macro:
```python
create_macro(
name="MyMacro",
code="... macro code ...",
description="What it does"
)
```
Or use a template:
```python
create_macro_from_template(
template_name="part", # basic, part, sketch, gui, selection
macro_name="MyPartMacro"
)
```
## Available Templates
- **basic**: Minimal template
- **part**: Part creation with primitives
- **sketch**: 2D sketch operations
- **gui**: GUI interaction with message boxes
- **selection**: Working with selected objects
## Running Macros
```python
run_macro("MacroName")
```
## Best Practices
1. Always check for active document
2. Use FreeCAD.Console for output
3. Call doc.recompute() after changes
4. Handle exceptions gracefully
5. Add descriptive comments

## Connection Issues
### Cannot Connect to FreeCAD
1. Verify FreeCAD is running (for socket/xmlrpc modes)
2. Check the MCP plugin is started in FreeCAD
3. Verify port numbers match (default: 9876 socket, 9875 xmlrpc)
**Check status:**
```python
get_connection_status()
```
### Connection Drops
- FreeCAD may be busy with long operations
- Try increasing timeout values
- Check FreeCAD console for errors
## Execution Issues
### Code Execution Timeout
- Increase timeout_ms parameter
- Break complex operations into smaller steps
- Check for infinite loops in code
### No Result Returned
- Ensure you set `_result_ = value` in your code
- Check for exceptions in stderr
**Debug execution:**
```python
execute_python('''
try:
# Your code
_result_ = {"success": True, "data": result}
except Exception as e:
_result_ = {"success": False, "error": str(e)}
''')
```
## GUI Issues
### Screenshots Fail
- Ensure GUI mode is available: `get_freecad_version()`
- Check for active document and view
- Verify view type supports screenshots
### View Not Updating
```python
recompute_document()
fit_all()
```
## Model Issues
### Boolean Operation Fails
- Check shapes are valid
- Ensure shapes overlap
- Try with simpler geometry first
### Export Fails
- Verify objects have valid shapes
- Check file path is writable
- Ensure correct format for geometry type
## Getting Help
1. Check console output: `get_console_output()`
2. Inspect problematic objects: `inspect_object()`
3. Verify document state: `list_documents()`, `list_objects()`
