3D CAD BasePlate Generator MCP
Server Configuration
Describes the environment variables required to run the server.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| CAD_API_KEY | No | Optional API key for remote CAD API | |
| CAD_API_URL | No | Optional URL for remote CAD API (not implemented yet) | |
| MESHY_API_KEY | Yes | API key for Meshy image-to-3D service | |
| PYTHON_EXECUTABLE | No | Override for Python executable path (auto-detected otherwise) |
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
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| generate_precise_capA | Generate a threaded cap STL/STEP from measured opening dimensions: a solid closed top with a skirt carrying real helical internal threads (swept, not just a bore). Takes structured JSON only (no image) — vision/dimension extraction happens client-side before this is called. Deterministic CadQuery, no network call. |
| fillA | Generate a solid plug that fills a measured hole/cavity — circular, rectangular, stadium (slot), arbitrary straight-edged polygon, or freeform organic/curved (amoeba-like) boundary, uniform or tapered. Takes structured JSON only (no image); deterministic CadQuery, no network call. |
| generate_visual_meshA | Generate a 3D mesh from a raw image via the Meshy image-to-3D API and return the resulting STL file directly. Use for visualization only — not dimensionally precise, so not suited to a cap/plug that needs to physically fit. Feed the output into repair_mesh before slicing. |
| repair_meshA | Repair a 3D mesh (from Meshy image-to-3D or local CadQuery CAD) to make it manifold, watertight, and print-ready. Removes non-manifold edges/vertices, fills holes, unifies face normals, and optionally remeshes for clean topology. Accepts a URL (e.g. from generate_visual_mesh) or a raw base64-encoded mesh. Returns the repaired STL (or chosen format) as base64 plus a repair summary. |

TDQS
Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a distinct purpose: generating threaded caps, filling cavities, creating visual meshes from images (non-precise), and repairing meshes. No overlap in functionality.
Tool names follow snake_case with a verb_noun pattern, except 'fill' which is a single verb but still clear. Overall consistent.
4 tools is a well-scoped set for the domain of generating caps, plugs, visual meshes, and mesh repair. Not excessive or sparse.
Despite the server name 'BasePlate Generator', there is no tool to generate a baseplate itself. Tools focus on caps, plugs, and mesh operations, leaving a significant gap for the intended purpose.
