Overview

What is Elegoo Mcp Server?

A local MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that controls Elegoo 3D printers over your local network using the SDCP protocol. It runs entirely on your machine with no cloud dependencies and works with any MCP-compatible client, such as Claude Desktop, VS Code, or Cursor.

How to use Elegoo Mcp Server?

Install the server via npx (npx elegoo-mcp-server), global npm (npm install -g elegoo-mcp-server), or by cloning the source. Configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) by adding the server to its config file, then restart the client. Say “Connect to my Elegoo printer” and provide the printer’s IP address—the printer is saved for future sessions. Use natural language commands to control the printer.

FAQ from Elegoo Mcp Server

What hardware is supported?

Tested with the Elegoo Centauri Carbon. Any Elegoo printer that uses the SDCP protocol (v3.0.0) should work.

Node.js 18+ and the printer must be on the same local network (WiFi or Ethernet). No cloud accounts or internet access are needed.

Which features are not available via this server?

Temperature control, fan control, speed control, movement/homing, and file deletion are not supported by the SDCP protocol. Those functions must be performed from the printer’s touchscreen.

Can I use this server with clients other than Claude Desktop?

Yes. It is compatible with any MCP-compatible client, including VS Code, Cursor, and others.

Are there any known issues?

On printer firmware v1.1.29, light control may not work during printing. Firmware v1.1.25 works correctly.
