Archlang MCP
An open-source (MIT) DSL for floor plans that compiles .arch source to SVG/DXF/PDF with linting and geometric validation - diffable, reproducible, and LLM-writable. Text in, a precise architectural drawing out: deterministic, zero-dependency, and built so an AI agent can verify its own plan without ever looking at an image. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People who work with agentic ai, architecture and cad and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Archlang MCP
Claude Code
claude mcp add chanmeng666-archlang -- npx -y @chanmeng666/archlang-mcp Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"chanmeng666-archlang": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@chanmeng666/archlang-mcp"
]
}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.
Using another client? Same JSON, different key

What is Archlang MCP?
An open-source (MIT) DSL for floor plans that compiles .arch source to SVG/DXF/PDF with linting and geometric validation - diffable, reproducible, and LLM-writable. Text in, a precise architectural drawing out: deterministic, zero-dependency, and built so an AI agent can verify its own plan without ever looking at an image. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
Is Archlang MCP still maintained?
Yes - as of 2026-09-18, its last commit was 2026-09-14 and it shipped 10+ releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.
How do I install Archlang MCP?
Run `npx -y @chanmeng666/archlang-mcp`. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.
Does Archlang MCP run locally?
Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
