Capabilities
What the Gridfinity MCP can do
The server exposes five focused tools. Your AI client can combine them to move from a rough request or known drawer model to an exact, shareable 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 a prompt to a printable model
- 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
MCP responses include calculated dimensions, structured configuration data and a ready-to-open Extrabold Tools URL. The final 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 MCP server?
It is a public Model Context Protocol server that lets compatible AI assistants configure Gridfinity baseplates and return ready-to-open Extrabold Tools links.
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.
