Kiln MCP
Kiln is an open-source MCP server that enables AI agents to design, slice, print, monitor, and recover 3D printed objects. It connects AI apps like Claude or ChatGPT to local 3D printers or third-party fulfillment services, handling the entire pipeline from text description to physical object while maintaining version control and safety checks.
