SmartCut API
SmartCut is a hosted cutting-optimisation (cutlist / nesting) API for sheet, linear and roll stock. This repository holds the OpenAPI specification, runnable examples and MCP configuration for integrating it into your own software.
What it does
modes for plywood, MDF, glass, plastic and sheet metal.
- Sheet optimisation — guillotine (edge-to-edge, saw-cuttable) and efficiency
waterjet and CNC routing.
- Linear (1D) optimisation for timber, bar, pipe and extrusion.
- True-shape nesting for irregular parts from DXF, for laser, plasma,
the length or width of the grain, or left free to rotate.
- Grain direction and per-part orientation locks, so a part can be pinned to
inputs, not post-processing.
- Edge banding, face finishes, blade kerf and stock trim as first-class
including PTX (Homag), Biesse XML and Mayer .may.
- Machine-ready exports — PDF, CSV, DXF, SVG, and native saw formats
- Printable part labels generated from the same result.
Quickstart
Get a key at , then:
curl -X POST https://api.smartcut.dev/v3/calculate \
-H "Authorization: $SMARTCUT_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d @examples/requests/guillotine.jsonThat returns a job id. Poll until it is ready, then fetch the result:
curl "https://api.smartcut.dev/v3/result/ready?id=$JOB_ID" -H "Authorization: $SMARTCUT_API_KEY"
curl "https://api.smartcut.dev/v3/result?id=$JOB_ID" -H "Authorization: $SMARTCUT_API_KEY"The result carries one entry per stock piece, each listing the parts placed on it with their positions, the cuts needed to produce them, and the offcut left over. Complete runnable versions in four languages are in examples/.
Authentication
Pass the raw API key in the Authorization header:
Authorization: YOUR_API_KEYThere is no Bearer prefix. This is the single most common integration mistake — a Bearer prefix returns 401.
Endpoints (v3)
<!-- This table is generated from the OpenAPI specification on release. Edits between the markers are overwritten. --> <!-- generated:endpoints -->

How the async model works
Optimisation takes longer than a request should block for, so /v3/calculate returns a job id immediately. You then either poll /v3/result/ready until it reports done, or register a webhook and let SmartCut POST to you when the result is available. Either way you fetch the payload from /v3/result.

- Yes, by our scan: it is graded A (85/100). Read the SmartCut safety report
- How do I install SmartCut?
- It runs remotely at api.smartcut.dev. Add it to Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Desktop with the snippets above, or call it through the mcp.market gateway without installing anything.
- Does SmartCut need an API key?
- Yes. The registry entry asks for
Authorization. - Is SmartCut maintained?
- The last commit was 63 days ago (2026-09-02). The latest release is v1.0.0.
- Is SmartCut up?
- 100% of our last 28 checks got an answer. We check remote servers about four times a day.
- What can I use instead of SmartCut?
- Servers from other publishers that do the same job: Memoire MCP server.
- How does SmartCut compare with other Developer tools MCP servers?
- safety score 85/100 (higher than 70% of 1,119 Developer tools servers); uptime 100% (of our recent checks; the typical remote Developer tools server answers 100%); response time 292 ms (faster than 43% of 443 Developer tools servers). Full comparison.
