TOOL

solidworks-mcp gives an agent 127 SOLIDWORKS tools and rolls back failed features (6 stars).

An unofficial MCP server on the SOLIDWORKS COM API sketches parts, builds assemblies, makes drawings, exports STEP and DXF and runs static stress studies, with failed features rolled back. The author rebuilt it after finding about 115 of 187 tools in an earlier server broken or silently wrong.

For mechanical and design engineers on SOLIDWORKS: note the README warns screenshots and geometry go to the model provider.

A hackathon kit trains agents on 280 buildings the way a facility manager knows a site (4 stars).

The student kit gives 280 buildings with floor plans and equipment lists, a starter agent and a scorer, and asks teams to find equipment and route people around closed areas. The split is right: the agent talks, a deterministic graph of rooms and doors does the routing.

For facility and plant engineering teams: a template for site navigation agents.
