What Rhino MCP does

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Gemini or a local Ollama model full control of Rhino 8 / Rhinoceros 3D. Describe a building in plain language and watch it get modelled — massing, floor plates, cores, facades, vaults, plans, sections and area schedules — with the AI checking its own work as it goes.
