Kiln

Overview

Kiln is an MCP server that enables AI agents to design, slice, print, monitor, and recover physical objects safely. It integrates with AI assistants through the Model Context Protocol, allowing them to call Kiln as a set of tools without manual copying between applications.

Kiln runs locally via the Python package kiln3d, installed through uvx, and communicates over stdio. The latest release is v1.4.1, published under the AGPL-3.0 license with source code available at codeofaxel/Kiln on GitHub, where the project has accumulated 51 stars. Authentication requires an API key.

Kiln is listed in the AI & Agents category on mcp.site and works with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. If you maintain Kiln, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information up to date.
