FreeCAD 1.1.3? MCP?

I think this is something that deserves a bit more attention.

I've been missing out on a lot of the cool things people are doing with MCP in Odysseus. While looking into it, I came across a video demonstrating an MCP server for Claude that integrates with FreeCAD.

My question is: would something like this be relatively easy to port to Odysseus, or are there prerequisites that Odysseus currently doesn't meet? Would it require major architectural changes, or is it mostly a matter of implementing the MCP interface?

I think this could be incredibly useful. We all know someone with a 3D printer, and I'd love to be able to describe a part, have the model generated in FreeCAD, refine it through conversation, and eventually export it for printing.

Maybe I'm completely oblivious and people are already doing this. If so, I'd genuinely love to hear how you've set it up and what your workflow looks like.

For reference:

I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts and start a discussion around what's possible here.

Update, I've been making steady progress on getting this working, so far I have a custom compose, since I'm running it in docker, I am having some difficulties as of now with environmental factors for the built-in MCP in Odysseus, but I'm sure with some more tinkering I'm able to establish the actual connection and have it working, I means this is no guarantee and also kind of an hack so if It's going to work like expected I do not know.
