Talk2CAD › Claude connector

For the Claude app and Claude Code

Parts straight
out of the conversation.

Talk2CAD can be added to Claude as a connector. You describe the part in the chat and get the STL back – without opening the application.

The connector uses the same account, the same credits and the same projects as the application. What you create in the chat then sits under “My models” – and what you saved there, Claude can read and keep working on.

Setting it up

Two routes, depending on what you work with.

Claude app (web and desktop)

Settings → Connectors → “Add custom connector”, and enter this address:

https://talk2cad.print3d-now.com/mcp

Sign-in goes through your normal Talk2CAD login – you do not need a token for it. You can disconnect connected apps in your profile at any time.

Claude Code

Create a connector token in your profile and run the command shown there. It looks like this:

claude mcp add --transport http talk2cad \ https://talk2cad.print3d-now.com/mcp \ --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

The token is shown only once and can be renewed or revoked in your profile.

What Claude can do with it

The seven tools the connector provides – and what they cost.

generate_model

Creates a part from a description and stores it as a project.

1 credit
update_model

Changes an existing project on instruction – “move the bore 2 mm further out” instead of starting over.

1 credit
render_scad

Renders OpenSCAD code you wrote yourself. No AI call, so no credit – also handy for checking Claude's own code.

free
get_scad_code

Reads the source code of a saved project.

free
list_projects

Lists your saved projects, newest first.

free
export_model

Exports a project as STL, STEP or DXF. Download links are valid for 24 hours.

free
get_account_info

Shows credits and storage usage – so Claude knows when to stop.

free

Staying honest

What you should know before you add it.

It is still the same AI design work

The connector is a more convenient route to the same thing, not a better result. Every model is measured and checked for a closed shell here too – nothing is warranted by that; the real check happens on the printed part.

Your descriptions go to the AI provider

Just as in the application. What is processed and stored is described in the privacy policy; nothing is used for training without your explicit consent.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a paid account?

No. The connector uses the same credits as the application – the 50 starting generations work here too.

Can I revoke access again?

Yes, at any time in your profile: the connector token can be renewed or revoked, and connected apps disconnected one by one.

Do I see what came out of it?

Yes. Everything created through the connector is an ordinary project in your account – with 3D view, sliders and all export formats.

Does this work with other MCP clients?

The endpoint speaks MCP over streamable HTTP with bearer authentication. It is tested with the Claude app and Claude Code; other clients supporting the same transport should be able to work with it.
