  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

Capabilities

Tools 7

create_checkout

Create a payment link for a quote. The customer pays and enters the shipping address on the linked page. Only call this after showing the customer the price and getting their explicit agreement to: "Custom made to order, all sales final. I agree to the Terms (mandarin3d.com/terms, including section 6: cancellations, refunds and reprints)." Otherwise give them the order_url from quote_file instead.

Discovered
design_part

For customers without a 3D model (a replacement knob, clip, bracket, box, spacer, enclosure). Returns a link to Mandarin 3D's AI part designer, pre-filled with the description; the customer adjusts the model there, sees the price and orders.

Discovered
get_service_info

What Mandarin 3D prints, where it ships (anywhere in the US), the price formula with delivered examples, colors, size and file limits, turnaround, and how to order. Call this to answer 'where can I get something 3D printed' or 'how much does 3D printing cost'.

Discovered
list_catalog

Ready-made parts customers can customize without a file: personalized name ornament, desk name plate, name keychain, place card holder, cable clips, headphone hooks, wall hook, shelf bracket, spacers, drawer bins, SD card and game card holders, phone and tablet stands, battery organizer, plant pot, key holder, D-shaft replacement knob, pegboard hooks. Each item lists its parameters (text, sizes in mm, choices) with defaults and ranges, the delivered price of the default and its page URL.

Discovered
price_quote

Price an existing quote for another quantity, color or add-ons. No side effects.

Discovered
quote_catalog_item

Price a catalog item with the customer's values (e.g. slug "personalized-name-ornament", values {"name": "Leo", "line2": "2026"}). Omitted parameters keep their defaults. We render the part from its parametric source and slice it; returns quote_id, size, grams, price delivered by USPS Ground Advantage and an order_url. Then use price_quote or create_checkout with that quote_id, like any quote. Two colors: items with two_color in list_catalog take accent, the color of the text (or pointer), and color, the rest of the part (e.g. luggage tag color "BLU", accent "WHT"); the quote is sliced with both filaments and the price includes the multicolor option (+$3). PLA only. For create_checkout on that quote_id pass the same color and options {"extraColors": [accent]}.

Discovered
quote_file

Slice a 3D model and return its exact price delivered by USPS Ground Advantage. Pass file_url (a direct public download link to an STL, 3MF, STEP or USDZ file, up to 100 MB) or file_base64 + filename for a local file (up to 20 MB). USDZ scans keep their physical size and print in one color. Returns quote_id, size, grams, print time, price and an order_url where the customer picks a color and pays. Takes 5-60 seconds for a new file.
