What's in it
- Data offered docs-verified
- 248 Vectorworks 2026 MCP tools · 3071-function vs.* knowledge index (signatures)
- Formats docs-verified
- MCP streamable HTTP
- Access docs-verified
- Free, open source (MIT); requires a local Vectorworks 2026 session on Windows with the bridge plugin installed
Useful for
- Use cases llm-inferred
- Batch-editing IFC property sets and bulk classification of Vectorworks BIM models · Generating criteria-driven schedules and reports from a Vectorworks drawing for civils or drainage deliverables · Georeferencing a drawing and converting lat/lon to drawing coordinates via EPSG codes for site layouts
- Audience llm-inferred
- BIM and civils engineers using Vectorworks 2026 · GIS analysts · CAD/BIM technicians scripting Vectorworks
Limitations
- Constraints docs-verified
- Every vs.* call runs on the Vectorworks main thread, so long operations block the UI · Export/import verbs (e.g. export_pdf, import_dwg) open Vectorworks modal settings dialogs with no headless path · File-IPC path is Windows-only; macOS/remote use needs the legacy TCP bridge (VWX_TRANSPORT=tcp) · Bridge runs only while the Vectorworks palette is open; closing or pausing it stops the bridge · Multi-step one-time Windows setup: native C++ palette build, menu command and shortcut
