Partial MCP servers that wrap CAD tools are vibe-codeable, but driving SolidWorks, Inventor, and AutoCAD well requires their proprietary COM/APIs and licenses. The ASME Y14.5 GD&T computation and engineering-grade symbolic math need domain expertise to be trustworthy.
What it would actually take: A real version needs MCP server wrappers around each CAD vendor's automation API (often Windows COM or licensed SDKs), plus Blender and KiCad via their open scripting interfaces. The hard part is a GD&T engine validated against ASME Y14.5-2018 by someone with metrology or mechanical design background, with test cases from real drawings. Access to CAD licenses for testing and a verification process are also needed.
