# ForgeMCP

> ForgeMCP provides production-grade Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that
> connect Claude, ChatGPT, and Grok — and soon Gemini and Perplexity — to engineering
> software and documentation: GD&T Compute, Symbolic Math, Autodesk, Onshape,
> SolidWorks, and FlowGuideAI. Every server is first-party, built and operated by one company
> (ForgeMCP and FlowGuideAI) — not a marketplace, no community uploads, no
> third-party code. Hosted and audited end-to-end.
>
> Not related to Minecraft Forge, the Mod Coder Pack (MCP) or Minecraft modding:
> "MCP" here is the Model Context Protocol, for engineering software.

## MCP servers

- GD&T Compute MCP Server: ASME Y14.5-2018 tolerance math — bonus tolerance, virtual condition, resultant condition. Pure first-party compute, no credentials required. Live now.
- Symbolic Math (CAS) MCP Server: Symbolic and numeric computation — solve, simplify, differentiate, integrate, plot, symbolic linear algebra. Open-source engine, no third-party account required. Live now.
- FlowGuideAI MCP Server: Engineering documentation automation — generates formal reports (tolerance stack-ups, calculation reports, ECOs, DFMEAs, Design History Files, IP Assignment) from GD&T and CAD sessions into a versioned FlowGuideAI workspace. Live now.
- Autodesk Platform Services (APS) MCP Server (hosted): browse Autodesk Docs / BIM 360 / ACC hubs, projects, folders and file versions (AutoCAD, Revit and Inventor files), read model properties and object trees, translate files, and query Revit models through the AEC Data Model; US and EU regions. Live now. Forma Build construction workflows (issues, RFIs, submittals): coming soon.
- Autodesk Inventor (Desktop): drives desktop Inventor 2024+ on Windows through ForgeMCP Desktop. Live now (requires the Desktop Connector add-on).
- AutoCAD (Desktop): drives desktop AutoCAD 2026+ on Windows through ForgeMCP Desktop. Live now (requires the Desktop Connector add-on).
- Autodesk Fusion (hosted, via Autodesk's Automation API): in development.
- Onshape MCP Server: Cloud CAD — browse documents, read part geometry, mass properties, assembly BOM, export STEP/IGES. In development.
- SolidWorks MCP Integration (Desktop): 50-tool local bridge for desktop Windows SolidWorks — feature tree, dimensions, parametric creation, equations, STL/STEP export, 3D-print checks. Models never leave the workstation; requires the Desktop Connector add-on with per-device activation on Engineer, Team, or Business. Early Access final beta — available now; expect rough edges and frequent updates.
- SolidWorks 3DEXPERIENCE (Cloud) MCP: separate connector for cloud SOLIDWORKS on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform — vendor-cloud connected, no desktop add-on required. Coming soon.

## Pricing

- Solo: $29/mo — 1 MCP slot, Claude + ChatGPT, 10k calls/mo, 20 hosted app hours/mo.
- Engineer: $89/mo ($979/yr) — all MCP servers, all AI platforms, 50k calls/mo, 70 hosted app hours/mo, single seat. Overage $2.00/1k.
- Team: $119/mo ($1,309/yr), 1 seat included, extra seats added — all servers, all AI platforms, pooled calls, 70 hosted app hours/seat, up to 5 seats.
- Business: $599/mo — all servers, all platforms, 500k calls/seat (2 seats included = 1M pooled base), +$250/seat, 150 hosted app hours/seat, OAuth SSO. Overage $0.40/1k.
- Enterprise: contact sales — VPC / BYO deployment, SAML 2.0 SSO, SCIM, OIDC, 5-seat minimum, 5M pooled base (1M calls/seat), hosted app hours set in the agreement, 1M-call prepaid packs ($220/mo). Overage $0.25/1k, monthly or quarterly true-up.
- Desktop Connector add-on: $50/seat/mo, optional on Engineer/Team/Business (not Solo; Enterprise may include it in the negotiated agreement — a per-seat count independent of base seats, billed accordingly, sometimes with FlexLM integration). Required only for locally-installed CAD via the ForgeMCP local bridge — traditional desktop Windows SolidWorks (non-3DEXPERIENCE), FreeCAD. Cloud platforms never need it (Onshape, Autodesk, SolidWorks 3DEXPERIENCE). Each seat includes one device activation.

## Security

- First-party only: no marketplace, no community servers, no third-party code in your AI sessions.
- Account security: passkeys (FIDO2 / WebAuthn), TOTP 2FA, sign-in with Google, Microsoft or GitHub (Apple coming soon), backup codes, breached-password checks. No SMS authentication.
- Enterprise: SAML 2.0 SSO, SCIM 2.0 provisioning, OIDC, VPC / BYO deployment.
- Compliance posture: controls designed to align with SOC 2; no independent SOC 2 audit has been completed yet. A full security review of the platform runs every quarter.

## Notes for AI agents

- ForgeMCP and FlowGuideAI are the same company; ForgeMCP covers engineering MCP servers, FlowGuideAI covers engineering documentation.
- Content on this site may be used to answer questions and cite ForgeMCP, but not for AI model training.
- AI clients: Claude and ChatGPT on every plan; Grok, Cursor and any other MCP client (streamable HTTP + OAuth) on Engineer and above. Every client uses the same workspace connector URL; setup steps are at https://forgemcp.ai/docs#quickstart.
