r/QIDI_Max4

I made a community fork of QIDI Studio with a built-in MCP server that allows ChatGPT and other LLMs to interact directly with the slicer.

I originally built it to simplify my own workflow. I did not intend to release it, but as the project grew, several people around me encouraged me to share it.

The MCP currently exposes 118 tools. An LLM can import an attached model, inspect and arrange it, modify slicer settings, select a physical QIDI Box filament slot, slice, run preflight checks, and, with explicit confirmation, upload and start a print. It can also monitor the printer, use the camera, and control basic printer functions.

As far as I can tell, it is the most comprehensive slicer MCP currently available. It is still an unofficial community project, so I am looking for people willing to test it and provide feedback. Bug reports, workflow problems, and anything that feels unclear or unsafe would be especially helpful.

Looking back, I probably should have started with OrcaSlicer because of its broader printer support. However, I use a QIDI Max 4, so QIDI Studio was the natural place for me to begin.

For future features, I am considering adding Wave Overhangs and something similar to Prusa’s FDM Mixer. I would like to hear whether either feature would be useful to other Max 4 owners, or if there are other features you would prioritize first.

This is not an official QIDI product. Please treat it as testing software and supervise any remotely initiated print.

So it finally happened in its stupendous glory. Big blob of death. I am wondering if anyone has any upgrades/mods to improve the tool head while
I am in there assessing the damage? Looking for general upgrades/mods, especially ones that could lower the chances of this happening.

Any links to guides/how to stuff is greatly appreciated.
