Your AI · MCP and CLI

Connect your AI to MPBxChange

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor or any MCP client to your account. Your AI can search Thai fabricators, compare materials, publish your request and read quotations on your behalf. MPBxChange itself runs no AI on your drawings, files or contracts.

Create a token ↗

Setup

Connect in three steps

Public tools work without a token. Anything that reads or writes your account needs one, and every call is logged against your account.

  1. Create a personal token

    Sign in, open Account · Your AI, name the token after the client that will use it. It is shown once; revoke it there at any time. Open Your AI →

  2. Add the server to your client

    Endpoint: https://www.mpbxchange.com/api/mcp · transport HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0, header Authorization: Bearer <token>. Discovery document: /.well-known/mcp.json.

  3. Ask your AI for a board

    "Find Thai fabricators for a 6-layer FR-4 board and publish a request for 500 pieces to Munich." It calls pcb_suppliers_search, pcb_materials_search and pcb_request_create; quotations arrive through pcb_request_get.

Tools

Available tools

Input schemas come from tools/list. Public tools are marked; the rest act as the token owner.

pcb_suppliers_search
public		Search the directory of Thai PCB fabricators compiled from public sources: site, board types, layers, finishes, reported certificates, site status and sources.
pcb_materials_search
public		Search 253 laminate, prepreg and finish records with Tg, Td, Dk, Df, CTE and IPC-4101 references.
pcb_request_create
token · writes		Publish a Thailand PCB manufacturing request (layers, size, thickness, material, finish, quantity, lead time, destination) as the token owner.
pcb_requests_list
token		List the token owner's PCB requests with quotation counts.
pcb_request_get
token		Read one request with every quotation: supplier, price, lead time, MOQ, tooling, terms.

Client configuration

Configuration examples

The same endpoint serves every client. Replace mpbx_… with your token. Keep it out of shared files: it acts as you.

The CLI reads Gerber ZIPs on your machine and talks to the same MCP endpoint; it needs Node 20 or later.

Data handling

Where your files are processed

DrawingsGerber ZIPs are read and rendered in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.
PDF and image drawingsRead by your AI, then entered into a request by you or through pcb_request_create.
Contracts and photosReviewed by you, or by your AI with your files. MPBxChange stores the record.
Your tokenStored as a hash. Every call is logged to your account and can be revoked at any time.
