cutspan.com

A woodworking/panel-cutting MCP server that reads cut lists from images or documents, optimizes how parts fit on boards, and exports the plan as PDF or DXF with material pricing.

Server instructions

Cut-list optimisation for sheet materials (MDF, plywood, MFC, melamine). Give it the finished part sizes in millimetres and the board size, and it returns how many boards are needed and where every part is cut from. Grain direction and saw kerf are honoured. It never invents a price — price_cut_plan quotes the catalogue's own numbers, and a board that is not a catalogue product comes back with no price at all. Nothing is stored.

Known tools 12

optimise_cut_list

Work out how many boards a list of parts needs and where each part sits on each board.

Inferred read-only

read_cut_list

Transcribe a cut list from an image or document with a vision model: handwriting, a phone photo of a scribbled sheet, a supplier PDF, a spreadsheet export — behind a read permission of its own, which /mcp/info reports.

Inferred read-only

list_materials

Search the boards Uniboards actually cuts to size, by name, decor, thickness or size.

Inferred read-only

export_cut_plan

Take the plan optimise_cut_list just returned and produce the file a workshop actually uses: a PDF to print, or a DXF for a CNC router.

Inferred read-only

price_cut_plan

Take the plan optimise_cut_list returned, plus the catalogue variant each material is, and get the price: per board, subtotal, VAT and total in GBP.

Inferred read-only

sheet_sizes

Standard UK sheet material sizes, and conversion between millimetres and feet/inches.

Inferred read-only

make_machine_program

Build the file a CNC actually runs for ONE part: BPP for a Biesse, MPR for a Homag woodWOP.

Inferred read-only

make_sheet_program

Build one program for a WHOLE sheet: cut every part out of the board and do the machining on each of them, in board coordinates.

Inferred read-only

read_machine_program

The other direction: give it a BPP, MPR, CIX or DXF and get the part back — size, thickness, its outline if it is not a rectangle, and every operation our editor can express.

Inferred read-only

shaker_door

A Shaker door described once — how wide the frame is, how many panels, where the rail sits — and answered as ready pockets, in the part's own coordinates.

Inferred read-only

shape_from_cut

One straight cut across a rectangle (or across a shape you give), answered as BOTH halves with their areas.

Inferred read-only

list_machines

The machine catalogue: which machines get their own native program (BPP for a Biesse, MPR for a Homag woodWOP) and which get a DXF with their own layer names.

Inferred read-only
