The tools this server listed when we connected to it, in its own words.
create_workspace — Create a private two-hour workspace and return its ID and CAD upload page. Start here before loading a sample or importing a user's CAD partlist_uploads — List files uploaded through this workspace's upload_url; pass an upload_id to import_part.compare_drapes — Compare up to 12 warp angles, sequentially, at one fixed seed and cloth configuration. When omitted, seed is suggested once for the first ancreate_layout — Start covering one surface with multiple pieces of the same ply/fabric. This is not a laminate stack. overlap is mm; supplied seeds are laidexport_pattern — Export a built-in example as DXF or tiled 1:1 PDF and return a temporary download_url. Uploaded-part exports require the signed-in website oget_job — Poll STEP import or multi-piece layout; retry after a short delay while done=false. STEP completion returns a step_id and at most 20 basic fimport_part — Import a file already uploaded to this workspace. Get upload_id from list_uploads. STEP/STP returns a job to poll with get_job(kind='step'),list_fabrics — List fabric IDs, nominal locking angles, tow pitch (mm), thickness and UD settings.list_faces — Inspect STEP face IDs, areas, bounds, centroids, neighbours and planar mesh normals. This requires the MCP face-metadata endpoint in the conlist_samples — List built-in example parts that can be loaded without uploading a file.load_sample — Register a built-in sample and return a mesh_id for draping.mesh_landmarks — Inspect seed landmarks in mm, paged within each category (max 100 per category). Returns centre, corners, edge midpoints and origin intersecrun_drape — Drape one fabric at one warp angle (degrees); return statistics and an exportable result_id. Omitted seed is suggested on the surface. Omittselect_faces — Create a drapable mesh from explicitly chosen STEP face IDs; reports connectedness.server_status — Check the hosted DrapeCut solver and read connection/workspace limits.suggest_seed — Suggest a starting point on a mesh. Validate its coverage with an actual drape.Not tested by KitScout yet. When our harness runs it, pros, cons and the tasks we tried appear here, with the date and evidence.
