Autodesk Fusion MCP Server

The Autodesk Fusion MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server exposed by Fusion when running locally. It allows MCP-compatible clients to send tool requests directly to a live Fusion session and perform actions in real time.

  • Best for: Claude Desktop, Cursor IDE, MCP-capable HTTP clients
  • Connection: Local-only — no remote connections or authentication required
  • Use it to: interact with an active Fusion session, perform real-time modeling, and execute command-based operations

Key characteristics

  • Local-only. Runs on the same machine as Fusion — no remote connections or authentication required.
  • Desktop-only. Does not work with the Fusion web client.
  • Dynamic tooling. Available tools are discovered by your MCP client at connection time and may change as capabilities evolve.
  • Session-based. Actions execute against your live Fusion session. For a full description of supported workflows, see the AI Assistant capabilities documentation.

Requirements

To use the Autodesk Fusion MCP Server, you must have:

  • Fusion installed locally
  • Fusion running on your machine
  • The Autodesk Fusion MCP Server enabled in Fusion preferences (Preferences > General > API)
  • An MCP-compatible client (for example, Claude Desktop or Cursor)
