Local physics/chemistry bench as MCP: plain words in, 12-domain simulations out.
Overview
Anvil is a local MCP workbench that turns plain-language engineering requests into 12-domain physics and chemistry simulations, proof metrics and printable 3D/C
- What you can do
- List the 12 simulation domains and what each one models, such as silicon, mechanical, chemistry, optics and sky ephemeris. Forge a blueprint from a plain-language intent, with an optional domain, using local templates and numbers parsed from the request. Solve a blueprint with the domain solver and return a deterministic snapshot plus proof metrics with tolerances and pass/warn statuses. Export blueprint geometry as ASCII STL or OBJ text for 3D printing or CAD.
- When to use it
- Useful when an assistant needs to draft and sanity-check an engineering or science design locally, for example a circuit, mechanical part, alloy or optical layout, and produce a printable mesh with supporting numbers before anything is fabricated.
- Requirements
- Runs as a local stdio process on the user's machine, launched with npx or from a cloned repository. Requires Node.js 20 or newer. No API key, account or network access is needed. An optional ANVIL_HOME environment variable sets where saved designs and exports live.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Anvil in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
Other MCP clients
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

Anvil — a full workbench for your agent.
No cloud. No Bridge. No API key. No LLM inside — the tools are pure computation; your agent host brings the thinking.
Plain words in — your agent forges the design, tests it against proof metrics, iterates until it passes, and hands you the file. You never touch a tool.

Tools
The 12 domains
silicon (nets, delay, heat, electromigration) · cellular (membranes, ions, morphogens) · quantum (wells, tunneling, decoherence) · neural (spikes, region flows) · mechanical (stress, modes, yield) · chemistry (mass-action kinetics, ΔH, equilibrium) · architecture (plans, interiors, circulation) · metallurgy (alloys, CE, melt, print window) · robotics (arms, torque, reach, payload) · machines (engines, gears, printable parts) · optics (geometry, gnomon, shadows, sundials) · sky (sun position / ephemeris)
How it works
anvil.forge—readIntentscores your words against per-domain keyword sets, picks a domain, andforgeOfflinebuilds a schematic graph (nodes, edges, physical params) from templates plus your numbers (e.g. "7nm", "5-stage", "0.75 V"). Pure local compute.anvil.solve—createSolverdispatches to the domain solver (Kirchhoff MNA for silicon, Euler–Bernoulli for mechanical, mass-action for chemistry, …), steps it, and returns a snapshot plus proof metrics — checks with real tolerances and statuses.anvil.export— blueprint geometry meshed to ASCII STL or OBJ text.
Everything runs in-process. There is no network call anywhere in the default path.
Config
Optional — nothing is required to run:
Notes
- Any OpenAI-compatible "mouth" (LM Studio, etc.) is a future opt-in, not part of v1. The kernel speaks blueprints, not prose, and that's the point.
anvil.solvereturns a deterministic snapshot after N steps of the solver's recommended dt — no wall-clock randomness.- Apache-2.0. See LICENSE.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.
- Auth declared10 pts
Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
