v0.1.0 — first public release

First tagged release of solidworks-mcp — an MCP server that lets Claude drive SolidWorks 2021 to create engineering drawings over your LAN, through the pywin32 COM API.

Features

21 tools in 5 categories:

• File operations (3) — open / close / list documents
• Drawing views (6) — create drawing from template, standard views, first-angle aligned 3-view, section view, detail view, custom-orientation view
• Annotation (6) — import model dimensions, probe edges, add dimensions (linear / diameter / radius / angle), auto reference dimensions, balloons, BOM table
• Export (4) — capture drawing (JPEG), capture model views, save as PDF, save drawing
• Assembly analysis (2) — read mates, read feature tree

See the README (繁體中文) for the full tool reference and quick start.

Requirements

• Windows 10/11 host with SolidWorks 2021 installed
• Python 3.10+
• An MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP (e.g. Claude Code) on the same trusted LAN

Known limitations

• Only SolidWorks 2021 has been tested. Other versions may work since the COM API is largely stable, but no guarantees.
• The server has no authentication. Deploy on a trusted LAN only — never expose the port to the internet. See the Security section in the README.
• Run from a clone (python src/server.py); not published to PyPI by design.
