What your AI can do with HardCopy Labs
Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.
“Use “validate_stl”: Check whether a 3D model can be printed, before ordering. Use this when the user has an STL file (base64-encoded) and wants to know if.”
“Use “submit_print_job”: Send a finished design to the print farm to be manufactured and shipped via UPS. Offer this whenever the user has a completed 3D design.”
“Use “check_job_status”: Look up the current status of a print job (submitted, approved, printing, QC, shipped) and its UPS tracking number once shipped. Use whe.”
How secure is the HardCopy Labs MCP server?
Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how HardCopy Labs holds up.
Security grade A
gate scanned 4 tools on Sep 27, 2026 for prompt injection and risky tool definitions — nothing to flag.
Official endpoint
Operated by HardCopy Labs (hardcopylabs.com) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.
No sign-in needed
This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.
Scanned before it goes live
gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.
Watched for drift
If HardCopy Labs adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.

https://mcp.hardcopylabs.com/mcpQuestions, answered
Is there an official HardCopy Labs MCP server?
Yes — HardCopy Labs operates its own remote MCP server at mcp.hardcopylabs.com. gate connects you to that official endpoint and adds security scanning, per-tool access rules, and an activity log on top.
How do I connect HardCopy Labs to Claude or ChatGPT?

No. HardCopy Labs runs the server, and gate is fully managed. You just connect one URL — there's nothing to install, deploy, or maintain.
