Partially update one LightBurn cut entry or MillMage operation by its get_cuts flat index; only fields in changes are modified, and LightBurn validates the full body before applying.
Retrieve the loaded camera overlay's size, workspace placement in millimeters, and revision token without transferring the image, so you can review overlay metadata in LightBurn.
Retrieve the camera overlay currently drawn on the LightBurn workspace as a PNG with metadata; it returns the existing in-memory overlay and never starts a new capture.
Retrieve a complete machine state snapshot—position, job progress, speed/power overrides, connection and jog settings—in one call to monitor laser status.
Retrieve the complete details of a single cut entry by its flat index from get_cuts, including all fields and the matching machine block (galvo or gantry).
Import SVG, DXF, AI, PDF, or image files into the current LightBurn project, merging them at specified workspace coordinates with optional origin anchoring.
Read current machine and workpiece coordinates in millimeters to verify laser position before making adjustments; axes not reported by the controller are omitted.
Places library parts on fixed sheets within a repeatable time budget; writes job, layout, report and per-sheet SVG/DXF files, then returns independently checked metrics.
Retrieves connection status and capabilities of the selected device profile, showing whether the laser is connected and supports Z-axis or setting overrides.
Retrieves the currently loaded material library, including materials, thicknesses, descriptions, and cut settings, so AI assistants can review and apply the right entry to a project.
