Connectors Solid Edge
Solid Edge connector
- Planned
- Solid Edge API
Parts, sheet metal, assemblies and drafts through the Solid Edge automation interface. With CADMCP.AI you would ask for this work in plain words from Claude or Codex, and every change would wait for a person’s approval.

Status: planned. The Solid Edge connector is not built yet; SOLIDWORKS comes first. This page describes what the Solid Edge connector is designed to do, so you can tell us whether it fits your work. Nothing on it has been tested with Solid Edge.
Examples of requests
The kind of work this connector is for. You would write your own the same way: say what you want, with sizes and names.
- Set the variable Width to 150 mm.
- Fill in the Project and Author properties for every part in this assembly.
- List the parts in this assembly with their quantities.
- Export the flat pattern of this sheet metal part to DXF.
The tasks it should cover
- Create part and sheet metal features
- Read and set variables and file properties
- Place parts and add relationships in an assembly
- Create draft views for review
- Export to STEP, DXF and PDF
- Report on a model: features, materials, properties
What any connector can do depends on the program, its version and your licence. We will publish what the Solid Edge connector really does when it is ready, and not before.
Solid Edge API
The Solid Edge connector is planned to drive Solid Edge through its COM automation interface, the API Solid Edge add-ins and macros use.
The CADMCP.AI Agent runs on the Windows PC where Solid Edge is installed, next to a small Solid Edge add-in that shows each change for approval.
The AI proposes. A person approves. Then it runs.
Your AI app can read, measure and plan. Anything that would change your model becomes a request that shows the exact change. It runs only after a person approves it inside the CAD program, and you can always decline.
Your tools, your licences
- Solid Edge installed and licensed on your Windows PC
- Your own AI app: Claude (Free, Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise) or OpenAI Codex. AI usage is billed to your own AI plan.
- A CADMCP.AI account. Early access is free.
Your model stays yours
Your CAD files stay on your computer. Requests and tool results pass through our server on their way to your AI app, and we do not train AI models on them.
