Autodesk Platform Services MCP Server

This project implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that interacts with Autodesk Platform Services (APS) documentation. This protocol supports various tools to interact with different Autodesk APIs, with a focus on the Model Derivative API.

Setup

To run the Autodesk MCP server using npx, use the following command:

npx -y @autodesk/dev-mcp@latest

Usage with Cursor or Claude Desktop

Add the following configuration. For more information, read the Cursor MCP documentation or the Claude Desktop MCP guide.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "autodesk-dev-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@autodesk/dev-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

On Windows, you might need to use this alternative configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "autodesk-dev-mcp": {
      "command": "cmd",
      "args": ["/k", "npx", "-y", "@autodesk/dev-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}
