bambu-printer-mcp

A Bambu Lab-focused MCP server for controlling Bambu printers, manipulating STL files, and managing end-to-end 3MF print workflows from Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP-compatible client.

This is a stripped-down, Bambu-only fork of mcp-3D-printer-server. All OctoPrint, Klipper, Duet, Repetier, Prusa Connect, and Creality Cloud support has been removed. What remains is a focused, lean implementation for Bambu Lab hardware.

Local handoff note: see REMOTE-DEPLOYMENT.md for the custom H2D/H2S/H2C patches, per-printer MCP split, and remote deployment plan used in this clone.

What's new in bambu-printer-mcp

This fork adds a substantial set of printer control tools beyond the upstream mcp-3D-printer-server. Everything listed below is unique to this package.

v1.1.0 — AMS auto-match, camera snapshot, pause/resume, skip objects

AMS auto-match by RFID (auto_match_ams on print_3mf) — resolves sliced 3MF filament requirements against live AMS inventory. Handles same-SKU different-color filaments. Dry-run with resolve_3mf_ams_slots.
Structured AMS inventory (get_printer_filaments) — per-tray display names, profile resolution tier (exact-model-nozzle/model/generic/unresolved), match confidence, and a summary with recommended auto-slice filament.
AMS settle-time retry — transparently retries when AMS data hasn't arrived on the first MQTT push from an idle printer.
Camera snapshot (camera_snapshot) — JPEG from the chamber camera. TCP-on-6000 for A1/P1S/P1P, RTSP via ffmpeg for X1/P2S/H2 series.
Pause / resume (pause_print, resume_print) — alongside the existing cancel_print.
Skip objects (skip_objects) — skip specific object IDs during a running multi-object print. IDs from list_3mf_plate_objects.
HMS diagnostics (printer://{host}/hms MCP resource) — read-only error summary with automatic settle retry.
Utility controls — set_print_speed (silent/standard/sport/ludicrous), clear_hms_errors, reread_ams_rfid, set_airduct_mode (cooling/heating for H2/P2).
H2-family-safe print path — correct project_file format with ams_mapping2 parallel array, H2 firmware quirks handled.
BambuStudio CLI auto-flatten (BAMBU_CLI_FLATTEN=true) — works around upstream profile inheritance bugs.
Print collar charm (print_collar_charm) — specialized two-color wrapper with fixed tray policy.

v1.1.1 — AMS dryer control (current)

AMS dryer start/stop (set_ams_drying) — sends print.ams_control MQTT command. Works on heated AMS units (AMS Pro / AMS-HT). Action: start or stop, target by AMS index 0–3.
Same-SKU different-color fix for auto_match_ams.
AMS and HMS settle-time retry for idle printers.
Validation script (scripts/validate-printer.mjs) for live printer testing.
