| Client coverage note | Local stdio runs on your computer. Streamable HTTP connects to a remotely hosted MCP server. | |
| Access and data | ||
| Authentication | IP allowlisting is documented for RPC access. User credentials, tokens, OAuth, and other authentication are not documented. | No MCP or Google API key or OAuth requirement is documented. The guide notes that some vendor fares may require a browser-minted session token. |
| Cost | No MCP project or service price is documented. FreeCAD and related dependency costs are separate. | No project or API price is documented. Provider, booking-vendor, client, and model charges remain separate or unknown. |
| Permissions | Controls FreeCAD documents and objects, including create, edit, and delete operations. It can execute arbitrary Python, take screenshots, inspect objects, insert parts, and run FEM analysis. | Searches Google Flights by route, dates, passengers, filters, and locale, and returns itineraries, fares, and airline, OTA, or direct booking links. No purchase action is documented. |
| Data handling | Processes local FreeCAD documents, objects, screenshots, and analysis files. RPC is localhost by default and can be configured for remote IP or CIDR access. External telemetry and retention are not documented. | Search parameters are sent to the publisher-described reverse-engineered Google Flights API. Results include itinerary, price, and booking-link data; storage, telemetry, and retention are not documented. |
| Limitations | ||
| Tradeoffs |
|
|
| Risk context | Arbitrary Python and destructive document operations provide very high local control. Keep RPC on localhost; if remote access is necessary, use a restrictive allowlist and additional authentication because IP filtering is not user authentication. | The publisher describes a reverse-engineered API and vendor-fare limitations, so independently verify prices and availability before purchase. Keep configurable HTTP mode local because MCP authentication is not documented. |
