About Kiln

Kiln is an open-source MCP server that lets AI agents (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex, or any custom MCP client) drive real 3D printers end to end — Bambu Lab, Creality, Prusa, Elegoo, Voron, Sovol, AnkerMake, Artillery, FlashForge, QIDI, RatRig, and SparkX, over OctoPrint, Moonraker/Klipper, PrusaLink, and Direct USB. In a single conversation, an agent can design a part, slice it, queue it on the right printer, monitor the camera, recover from failures, and ship the result. No human in the middle. <img src="docs/assets/kiln-demo-loop.svg" alt="A Kiln agent session: the user asks for a coaster with their dog's photo; Kiln designs it, checks it will print, s

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
