All limitations / Review context

Has PartMode provided verified general release artifacts or changed browser approval versus headless edit boundaries?

No identified material blocker to an accurately qualified public tracking entry in the limited cited evidence. This is not an installation safety certification; product-specific cautions must remain visible.

Advisory/security review not completed; no safety badge.
Reviewed write actions: Create or modify CAD parts or designs where permitted
Installation, client compatibility and comprehensive security have not been independently audited. Authentication and access depend on the configured services.
CAD edits change real project geometry and manufacturing inputs; public source release is not certification or manufacturing design approval.
Unknown vulnerabilities and provider data handling are not certified by this public tracking review.
Release evidence proves attributable activity, not entire installation or tool-level safety.
Current Discovery source binding and atomic apply must be generated using MCP100 existing pipeline.

Setup · Watchlist

Connect remote MCP service

Codex

Publisher instructions with a documented client setup path.

Source evidence observed Oct 12, 2026.

Additional setup details required — see the specific gaps below.

Install / connect
Publisher instructions
Use the publisher-documented command or connection method below; complete the prerequisites and client configuration before expecting a usable MCP connection.
codex mcp add partmode --url https://partmode.com/mcp --bearer-token-env-var PARTMODE_AGENT_KEY
Configure / authenticate
Publisher instructions
Create a revocable key via https://partmode.com/account; export PARTMODE_AGENT_KEY in the environment running Codex. Alternative local browser app: clone repo, npm ci, npm run build, npm start (Node 22.13+).
Check connection
Suggested check
After setting PARTMODE_AGENT_KEY in the Codex environment and registering https://partmode.com/mcp, reopen Codex and inspect advertised PartMode Help resources. Call cad_capabilities before attempting any CAD write. The publisher does not document a universal standalone status command. Client registration check: `codex mcp list` (checks registration; inspect tools/read-only calls separately to verify authenticated service access).
Remove / uninstall / revoke
MCP100 setup guide
Remove the matching MCP configuration from the client. This does not uninstall the local package or revoke provider credentials. Client disconnect (codex, only if registered using the name `partmode`): `codex mcp remove partmode`. This unregisters the client entry; it does not uninstall packages or revoke remote service credentials.
codex mcp remove partmode
