Server Configuration
Describes the environment variables required to run the server.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| LDRAW_MCP_BLENDER | No | Path to the blender binary (overrides PATH lookup) | |
| LDRAW_MCP_DISABLE | No | Set to 1 to force is_available() to False | |
| LDRAW_LIBRARY_PATH | No | Path to the LDraw parts library (community convention) |
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 |
|---|---|
| check_rendererA | Report whether the LDraw rendering stack is available and why not. |
| render_ldraw_fileA | Render an LDraw model file (.ldr/.mpd/.dat) to a PNG image. Views are rendered at each comma-separated azimuth (degrees) and stitched side by side. Higher samples = cleaner but slower. Bounds: resolution 32..2048 px per view, samples 1..1024, 1..8 azimuths, and resolution^2 x samples x views at most 2**27. |
| render_ldraw_textA | Render inline LDraw content (the text of a .ldr file) to a PNG. Useful for quick experiments without writing a file first. Same bounds as render_ldraw_file. |
| bill_of_materialsA | Bill of materials for an LDraw model: part x colour x quantity rows. Give |
| lookup_colorA | Look up LDraw colours in the library's LDConfig.ldr.
|
| search_partsA | Search the LDraw library's parts by description or file-name substring. Case-insensitive, runs of spaces collapsed ( |

Scored across 6 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: file rendering, inline rendering, bill of materials, renderer status check, color lookup, and part search. The two render tools differ only by input source (file vs inline text), and their descriptions make that boundary explicit.
Most tool names follow a clear verb_noun pattern: render_ldraw_file, render_ldraw_text, check_renderer, lookup_color, and search_parts. The exception is bill_of_materials, which is a noun phrase rather than a verb-led action, creating a minor inconsistency.
Six tools is well-scoped for an LDraw-oriented server covering rendering, analysis, and library lookups. Each tool earns its place without redundancy or bloat.
The tool surface covers the primary LDraw workflows: rendering models from files or inline content, generating bills of materials, checking renderer availability, and querying the part and color libraries. No obvious dead ends or critical missing operations are apparent for the intended domain.
