Overview
What is JLCPCB Parts MCP Server?
It is an MCP server that helps search and select electronic components for JLCPCB’s PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly) service. It uses an offline SQLite database from the JLC PCB SMD Assembly Component Catalogue (jlcparts) project.
How to use JLCPCB Parts MCP Server?
Set up a Python environment with MCP support. Place the server.py file and set the JLCPCB_DB_PATH environment variable to the cache.sqlite3 database file (available from the jlcparts repository as split ZIP archives, currently up to cache.z19). Then include the server in your MCP client configuration, for example in Claude Desktop as shown in the README.
