cad_add_layersCreates or configures CAD layers with custom colors (hex), linetypes (Continuous, Hidden, Center, Phantom), and lineweights (0.18, 0.25, 0.35, 0.50, etc.).No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_add_layers" says "add": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Creates or configures CAD layers with custom colors (hex), linetypes (Continuous, Hidden, Center, Phantom), and lineweights (0.18, 0.25, 0.35, 0.50, etc.).
cad_batch_add_entitiesFast batch insertion of multiple CAD entities (LINE, LWPOLYLINE, CIRCLE, ARC, ELLIPSE, XLINE, RAY, DONUT, SOLID, TRACE, WIPEOUT, SPLINE, ARRAY (associative rect/polar/path), MLINE …No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_batch_add_entities" says "add": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Fast batch insertion of multiple CAD entities (LINE, LWPOLYLINE, CIRCLE, ARC, ELLIPSE, XLINE, RAY, DONUT, SOLID, TRACE, WIPEOUT, SPLINE, ARRAY (associative rect/polar/path), MLINE (multiline), TABLE (title, header and data cells), IMAGE (picture embedded in the drawing), TEXT, MTEXT, DIMENSION, TOLERANCE, LEADER, HATCH (pattern or gradient), POINT, INSERT, POLYLINE3D). LINE, POINT and POLYLINE3D points take z.
cad_create_blockDefines a reusable Block containing geometric entities and optional attribute definitions (ATTDEF).No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_create_block" says "create": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Defines a reusable Block containing geometric entities and optional attribute definitions (ATTDEF).
cad_execute_scriptExecutes JavaScript to generate large or procedural geometry (loops, patterns, algorithms) without spending context tokens.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_execute_script" says "execute": a word for a change.
- The input takes a statement or command to run (input.script), which can change anything it can reach.
Description, as the server wrote it Executes JavaScript to generate large or procedural geometry (loops, patterns, algorithms) without spending context tokens. Runs in a separate Node process that cannot write files, start programs or read anything outside the CAD sources; 30 s limit. Variables: CAD, M (CADMath), G (CADGeometry), E (CADEntities), S (CADState), D (CADDXF), L (CADLayouts), parametric, solid(recipe) (adds a 3D solid), console. Changes to the drawing are kept.
cad_export_dxfExports the current drawing to a standard AutoCAD 2000 (AC1015) ASCII DXF file compatible with AutoCAD, Civil 3D, SolidWorks, and LibreCAD.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it Exports the current drawing to a standard AutoCAD 2000 (AC1015) ASCII DXF file compatible with AutoCAD, Civil 3D, SolidWorks, and LibreCAD.
cad_export_stlExports the closed 3D solids to a binary or ASCII STL file for 3D printing.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it Exports the closed 3D solids to a binary or ASCII STL file for 3D printing.
cad_export_svgRenders the drawing or paper space layout to an SVG vector file for instant preview and inspection.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it Renders the drawing or paper space layout to an SVG vector file for instant preview and inspection.
cad_generate_parametricGenerates complex parametric structures: "structural_grid", "truss", "mechanical_flange", "gear", or "architectural_floorplan".No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_generate_parametric" says "generate": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Generates complex parametric structures: "structural_grid", "truss", "mechanical_flange", "gear", or "architectural_floorplan".
cad_insert_blockPlaces an instance (INSERT) of a block into the drawing with transform scale, rotation, and attribute values.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_insert_block" says "insert": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Places an instance (INSERT) of a block into the drawing with transform scale, rotation, and attribute values.
cad_new_drawingInitializes a fresh CAD drawing space, clearing existing entities and resetting layers.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it Initializes a fresh CAD drawing space, clearing existing entities and resetting layers.
cad_open_dxfOpens an existing ASCII DXF file (AutoCAD R12 to 2018+) in place of the current drawing, so it can be edited with cad_run_commands and saved with cad_export_dxf.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_open_dxf" says "open": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Opens an existing ASCII DXF file (AutoCAD R12 to 2018+) in place of the current drawing, so it can be edited with cad_run_commands and saved with cad_export_dxf. Returns counts, what was converted, and a warning listing objects that cannot be read (they would be missing from a saved file).
cad_run_commandsRuns AutoCAD command-line input in the current drawing, exactly as typed in the app.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_run_commands" says "run": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Runs AutoCAD command-line input in the current drawing, exactly as typed in the app. Statements are separated by ";" or newlines; inside a statement tokens are separated by spaces and the statement ends with Enter. Example: "LINE 0,0 100,0 100,50; CIRCLE 50,25 10; CHPROP ALL; C red; LAYMRG N DOORS; N WALLS Y; DRAWORDER ALL; F". Every statement ends with Enter, so keep the follow-up answers of one command step in the same statement ("CHPROP ALL; LA WALLS C red"; a question asked after Enter goes in the next statement: "LAYDEL N TEMP; Y"). Objects are selected with ALL or P (previous). Returns the command log and any problems. 3D: points x,y,z; 3DPOLY, ELEV, VIEW (Top, Front, SWiso ...), UCS. 3D solids: BOX, CYL, SPHERE, EXTRUDE, REVOLVE, UNION, SUBTRACT, INTERSECT, MASSPROP. Use cad_list_commands to see every command.
Only reads 3Claude Code: allow
cad_get_statsReturns comprehensive statistics of the current drawing: entity count, breakdown by type, layers, bounding box extents, blocks, and layouts.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_get_stats" says "get": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Returns comprehensive statistics of the current drawing: entity count, breakdown by type, layers, bounding box extents, blocks, and layouts.
cad_list_commandsLists every implemented AutoCAD command with its aliases and description.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "cad_list_commands" says "list": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Lists every implemented AutoCAD command with its aliases and description. Optional filter matches the name, an alias or words in the description (for example "layer" or "dim").
cad_solidsInspects 3D solids: list (id, op, volume, bounds), measure (volume, area, centroid) or check (closed, curve error).No findings
Why it is in this group
- The description's first verb is "inspect": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Inspects 3D solids: list (id, op, volume, bounds), measure (volume, area, centroid) or check (closed, curve error).
This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
