Capabilities

What this AI Gridfinity generator can do

This Gridfinity MCP server gives your AI assistant five focused tools for 3D printing. It can turn a rough request, drawer name or exact measurements into a precise, shareable Gridfinity baseplate configuration.

Find drawer presets

find_gridfinity_drawer_presets

Search known drawers, Euroboxes and KLT containers by product name, brand, dimensions or article number.

Fit a drawer and printer

generate_gridfinity_drawer_baseplate

Create a drawer-sized baseplate and automatically split it when it is larger than the supplied printer build volume.

Ask relevant questions

get_gridfinity_grid_questions

Walk through grid size, baseplate style, magnets, screws and splitting while skipping questions that do not apply.

Generate a grid

generate_gridfinity_grid

Turn a requested number of columns and rows into exact millimeter dimensions and a shareable generator link.

Build an exact link

create_gridfinity_baseplate_url

Compose a ready-to-open baseplate link when the dimensions and precise generator settings are already known.

How it works

From an AI prompt to a printable Gridfinity model

1. 1

Describe the baseplate

Ask in plain language, including grid size, drawer measurements, magnets, screws or printer size. 2. 2

The assistant configures it

The MCP tools resolve compatible settings, calculate dimensions and decide whether splitting is needed. 3. 3

Open, inspect and download

Follow the generated Extrabold Tools link to preview the model, make final adjustments and export it.

What you get back

Your AI assistant receives calculated dimensions, structured configuration data and a ready-to-open Extrabold Tools URL. The final Gridfinity 3D preview and file export happen in the browser, where you can review every setting before downloading.

FAQ

Common questions

What is the Extrabold Tools AI Gridfinity generator?

It is a free, public Model Context Protocol server that lets compatible AI assistants configure custom Gridfinity baseplates and return ready-to-open Extrabold Tools links.

How does AI Gridfinity generation work?

You describe the Gridfinity baseplate you need in natural language. Your AI assistant uses the MCP tools to ask relevant questions, calculate dimensions, choose compatible settings and create a link where you can preview and export the 3D model.

Does the MCP server cost anything or require an API key?

No. The remote endpoint is free to use and does not require an Extrabold Tools account, API token or local server installation.

Does it generate an STL file inside the chat?

No. The server calculates the configuration and returns a shareable Extrabold Tools link. Open that link to inspect the 3D preview, adjust settings and download the model.

Can it make a baseplate fit my specific printer?

Yes. Supply the printer build width, depth and height. For drawer presets, the server automatically enables splitting when the baseplate is too large for the available build plate.

Which AI clients can connect to it?

Any MCP client that supports remote Streamable HTTP servers can connect. This page includes setup instructions for Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, VS Code, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Cline and LM Studio.

Does the server keep an MCP session or project account?

No. The MCP endpoint is stateless and handles each request independently. It does not require a user account or maintain an MCP session between requests.
