What the publisher says

From the ldraw-mcp repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

ldraw-mcp

Give your MCP client eyes for LEGO® models.

Render LDraw files (.ldr / .mpd / .dat) to images with real part geometry — studs, slopes, window glass — using headless Blender and the ImportLDraw addon. The output looks like a BrickLink Stud.io render, with no GUI anywhere in the loop.

A ~90-line .ldr rendered front-left and rear-right — actual bricks, not a geometric proxy.

<!-- mcp-name: io.github.musharna/ldraw-mcp -->

Point a vision-capable model at a build and it sees the actual bricks: crossed rotation matrices, floating plates, sunken windows — the kinds of export bugs a geometric proxy render will happily hide.

Quickstart

# 1. install
pip install ldraw-mcp

# 2. install the LDraw parts library + ImportLDraw addon
ldraw-mcp-setup

# 3. register with Claude Code
claude mcp add ldraw -- ldraw-mcp

Then ask things like "render output/build.ldr and tell me what looks wrong" — the model sees the render, not just the text.

Blender is a prerequisite (see Requirements); it is

not installed by ldraw-mcp-setup.

Tools

azimuths is a comma-separated list of view angles in degrees; each is rendered and the views are stitched horizontally. Elevation is fixed at 22°. Higher samples = cleaner but slower.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
