Readme
kiln3d (npm launcher)
Kiln is the open-source MCP server for 3D printing — it lets AI agents (Claude, Codex, or any MCP client) design, slice, print, monitor, and recover real 3D prints on Bambu Lab, Creality, Prusa, Elegoo, Klipper/Moonraker, OctoPrint, and more.
This npm package is a thin launcher. The actual server is the Python
package kiln3d; this just runs it for you
via uv (or pipx), so it works from a Node/npx
setup:
npx kiln3dThat launches the Kiln MCP server (serve). Any arguments are passed straight
through, e.g. npx kiln3d --help.
Requirements
Kiln is a Python program, so you need one of:
- uv (recommended):
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh - pipx:
pipxon your PATH
If neither is present, the launcher prints install instructions and exits.
Why a launcher instead of a rewrite
The launcher always runs the latest published kiln3d from PyPI, so new
Kiln releases reach npx kiln3d users automatically — this npm package rarely
needs a new version.
Prefer a native install?
- Python:
uvx kiln3d(zero-install run) orpip install kiln3d - Full guide: https://kiln3d.com/install
