Best for
  • Users of Sketchup who want AI-assisted modeling.
  • Designers and developers needing automation of modeling tasks.
  • Users familiar with Ruby and willing to extend Sketchup functionality.
  • Developers auditing NPM dependencies within AI workflows
  • Teams performing supply chain security assessments
  • Users of Claude Desktop, Cursor, or VS Code
Not for
  • Users who do not use Sketchup.
  • Lightweight scenes requiring real-time rendering or complex animations.
  • Environments with high security requirements that disallow arbitrary code execution.
  • Projects outside the NPM ecosystem (e.g., pure Python/Go)
  • Environments without network access to deps.dev, OSV.dev, and the npm registry
  • Scenarios requiring maintenance by an official upstream vendor
Required permissions
  • Create, modify, delete components within Sketchup.
  • Execute arbitrary Ruby code, potentially affecting the Sketchup environment.
  • Network communication via TCP (default port 9876).
  • Network access to the NPM registry and external services (deps.dev, OSV.dev, OpenSSF, npms.io, GitHub)
  • Read access to workspace lockfiles (pnpm-lock.yaml, package-lock., yarn.lock) for cache invalidation
Risks and side effects
  • The eval_ruby tool allows arbitrary Ruby execution, which could crash Sketchup or corrupt data.
  • TCP connection is unencrypted and could be intercepted.
  • Dependencies on both Sketchup and MCP server running simultaneously; otherwise connection fails.
  • Third-party READMEs and changelogs are untrusted external content; they are wrapped in tags with _meta flags but should still be handled cautiously
  • Depends on availability and accuracy of external services
  • Batch requests are capped at 25 packages to prevent registry enumeration; larger sets require batching
  • Third-party open source project, not officially maintained by NPM or Anthropic
