Instructions

Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.

This server publishes no instructions, or was last inspected before Glama recorded them.

Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
get_printer_statusC

Get the current status of the Bambu Lab printer

get_printer_filamentsA

Get the live AMS/external filament inventory from the printer over MQTT, including loaded/empty slot summary, resolved slicer profile paths, match confidence, and recommended load_filaments when the printer model is known.

resolve_3mf_ams_slotsA

Inspect a sliced 3MF and match its tray_info_idx filament requirements against the live AMS inventory. Does not upload or start a print.

list_3mf_plate_objectsA

List object IDs from a sliced 3MF plate. Use these IDs with skip_objects during a running print.

extend_stl_baseC

Extend the base of an STL file by a specified amount

scale_stlB

Scale an STL file by specified factors

rotate_stlB

Rotate an STL file by specified angles (degrees)

get_stl_infoA

Get detailed information about an STL file (bounding box, face count, dimensions)

list_templatesB

List saved slicing templates from the local template registry directory.

save_templateB

Copy a 3MF, JSON, or config file into the local template registry and register it under a template name.

get_slice_settingsA

Inspect slicer settings from a saved 3MF template or a JSON/config slicer profile without slicing anything.

slice_with_templateA

Slice an STL or 3MF using a named template from the local registry. This is a higher-level wrapper around slice_stl for template-based workflows.

slice_stlA

Slice an STL or 3MF file using a slicer to generate printable G-code or sliced 3MF. IMPORTANT: bambu_model must be specified to ensure the slicer generates safe G-code for the correct printer.

list_printer_filesC

List files stored on the Bambu Lab printer

bambu_connect_import_fileA

Open an existing G-code or sliced 3MF file in the signed-in Bambu Connect app through its official URL scheme. This is a cloud-mode handoff and does not start printing by itself.

bambu_network_bridge_statusC

Inspect or probe the FULU OrcaSlicer-bambulab BambuNetwork bridge runtime used for cloud and restored BambuNetwork printing.

bambu_network_callC

Call a raw FULU OrcaSlicer-bambulab BambuNetwork bridge method, optionally with an initialized network agent injected into the payload.

print_3mf_bambu_networkA

Print a 3MF through FULU OrcaSlicer-bambulab's restored BambuNetwork path instead of the MCP LAN MQTT/FTPS path.

camera_snapshotA

Capture a single JPEG frame from the printer's chamber camera. A1/P1 use TCP-on-6000; X1/P2S/H2/X2D use RTSP via ffmpeg. Returns JPEG as base64; pass save_path to also write the bytes to disk.

delete_printer_fileA

Delete a file from the Bambu Lab printer's SD card via FTPS. Destructive: requires confirm:true. Restricted to cache/, timelapse/, and logs/ directories. Path traversal segments (..) are rejected.

upload_gcodeB

Inspect a G-code file and upload a uniquely named copy without overwriting existing printer files.

upload_fileC

Upload a local file to the Bambu Lab printer

start_printB

Start printing a G-code file already on the Bambu Lab printer. Alias of start_print_job for upstream MCP compatibility.

start_print_jobB

Start printing a G-code file already on the Bambu Lab printer

cancel_printB

Cancel the current print job on the Bambu Lab printer

pause_printA

Pause the current print job on the Bambu Lab printer (resumable via resume_print)

resume_printB

Resume a paused print job on the Bambu Lab printer

x2d_native_controlB

Read calibration results or update X2D AMS metadata/calibration selection through the installed plug-in. Raw motion, heating, task control, and safety-setting changes are rejected.

clear_hms_errorsB

Clear HMS or print error state on the Bambu Lab printer using the clean_print_error MQTT command.

set_print_speedB

Set the active print speed mode: silent, standard, sport, or ludicrous.

set_airduct_modeA

Set H2/P2 airduct mode to cooling or heating.

reread_ams_rfidA

Trigger a Bambu AMS RFID re-read for one AMS slot. X2D on macOS uses the native official plug-in route. This can move AMS filament; use only when the printer is idle and unloaded.

set_temperatureA

Set a checked bed or nozzle temperature. Positive heating requires matching fresh printer telemetry; nozzle heating also requires declared material. Zero turns the heater off.

set_fan_speedB

Set a Bambu printer fan speed percentage. X2D on macOS uses the installed Bambu networking plug-in without UI automation; other models use MQTT.

set_lightA

Set a Bambu printer light node mode using the printer's MQTT LED command

skip_objectsA

Skip specific object IDs during a running multi-object print using the printer's MQTT skip_objects command

set_ams_dryingC

Start or stop the AMS filament drying cycle. X2D on macOS uses the native official plug-in route and supports AMS-HT id 128.

print_3mfB

Print a 3MF file on a Bambu Lab printer. Auto-slices if the 3MF has no gcode. IMPORTANT: bambu_model must be specified to ensure safe printer operation.

print_collar_charmA

Print a prepared two-part dog collar charm project using the fixed tray policy: inner/smaller object -> black on AMS 1 slot 1, outer/larger object -> white on AMS 2 slot 1.

merge_verticesB

Merge vertices in an STL file closer than the specified tolerance

center_modelB

Translate the model so its geometric center is at the origin (0,0,0)

lay_flatA

Rotate the model so its largest flat face lies on the XY plane (Z=0)

blender_mcp_statusA

Inspect Blender MCP configuration or connect and discover the remote server's tools and schemas. Connecting does not edit the scene; use get_scene_info through blender_mcp_call to check the Blender addon.

blender_mcp_callA

Call a discovered tool on the configured Blender MCP server, preserving its full MCP content and errors. Discover tool schemas with blender_mcp_status first; execute_blender_code accepts Python code and user_prompt. Calls can modify the active Blender scene and are never automatically retried.

blender_mcp_edit_modelA

Import, edit, and export a local STL through standard Blender MCP with verified output and existing scene objects preserved. Requires a shared local filesystem and Blender Object Mode. Also supports a separately configured legacy executable bridge.

B3.2/5.0

Scored across 45 tools

Disambiguation3/5

Several tools have overlapping purposes: start_print and start_print_job are aliases, slice_stl and slice_with_template are related, and print_3mf vs print_3mf_bambu_network target different paths. Descriptions clarify most distinctions, but an agent still faces non-trivial misselection risk.

Naming Consistency4/5

The set is predominantly snake_case and action-oriented, with predictable names like get_printer_status, upload_file, and set_temperature. Minor deviations such as camera_snapshot (noun phrase) and skip_objects (verb-only) exist but do not break readability.

Tool Count2/5

At 45 tools, the server is heavily over-provisioned for a printer-control MCP. Many specialized and overlapping operations could be consolidated, making the surface harder to navigate than necessary.

Completeness3/5

Core lifecycle coverage exists for file management, printing, slicing, and AMS inspection, but notable gaps remain. There is no explicit filament load/unload tool despite get_printer_filaments recommending load_filaments, and calibration start is absent from x2d_native_control.
