Moonraker

Purpose

Control a Klipper-based 3D printer through the Moonraker API server (the backend behind Mainsail, Fluidd and RatOS): read server and print status, list and upload gcode files, start/pause/resume/cancel prints, trigger the emergency stop, toggle smart-plug devices, and (gated) run raw G-code. Use when the user mentions Moonraker, Klipper, Mainsail, or Fluidd.

Tooling

All commands go through bin/moonraker.py. --host points at Moonraker (default $MOONRAKER_HOST or http://localhost:7125); --insecure skips TLS verification for self-signed reverse proxies. --api-key attaches the stored custom.moonraker credential; omit it on the default no-auth LAN setup.

bin/moonraker.py auth --host http://printer.local:7125   # server info; never needs a credential
bin/moonraker.py status                                   # print state and temperatures
bin/moonraker.py files                                    # list gcode files

# MEDIUM: --confirm "<exact effect>" on first use per printer, then proceed
bin/moonraker.py upload --path ./benchy.gcode --confirm "upload benchy.gcode to printer.local"
bin/moonraker.py print-start --filename benchy.gcode --confirm "start printing benchy.gcode on printer.local"
bin/moonraker.py print-pause --confirm "pause the print on printer.local"
bin/moonraker.py print-resume --confirm "resume the print on printer.local"
bin/moonraker.py print-cancel --confirm "cancel the print on printer.local"
bin/moonraker.py emergency-stop \
    --confirm "emergency stop on printer.local: halt all motion and heaters"
bin/moonraker.py device-power --device enclosure --action on \
    --confirm "turn smart-plug device enclosure on on printer.local"

# HIGH: raw G-code needs BOTH --enable-raw-gcode AND --confirm on EVERY call
bin/moonraker.py gcode-script --script "G28" --enable-raw-gcode \
    --confirm "run raw G-code script: G28"

MEDIUM first-use confirmations are recorded locally (~/.cache/muse-connectors/moonraker/confirmed.json).

Auth

  • Provider id: moonraker (credential is collected as custom.moonraker)
  • Collection: Moonraker has no auth on the LAN by default, so most installs need nothing stored at all. If the printer enables [authorization] API keys, store the key via the secure credential flow (credentials.request_api_access) as custom.moonraker and pass --api-key on each call. The key is never passed on the command line, in the environment, or in a file: --api-key is a flag that takes no value.
  • Allowed hosts: the hostname from --host (validated per call; the surrogate is only ever swapped on egress to that host)
  • Status check: bin/moonraker.py auth (must return "ok": true; also reports whether an API key is stored)
  • Remote access: Moonraker is LAN-first. Reach it remotely through the OctoEverywhere relay, a VPN, or a reverse proxy; the connector does not implement any relay itself.

Operating Rules

  1. HIGH: raw G-code (gcode-script) can physically damage the printer. The CLI requires both --enable-raw-gcode (explicit capability flag) and --confirm "run raw G-code script: <script>" naming the exact script, on every call. Prefer the high-level print commands whenever they cover the need.
  2. MEDIUM: print start/pause/resume/cancel, emergency stop, file upload, and smart-plug power move or heat physical hardware. They need --confirm naming the exact effect on first use per printer. Emergency stop halts all motion and heaters instantly; reach for it when a print is failing rather than using it as a casual pause.
  3. There are no vendor quotas, but do not hammer the printer's host: keep status polling to a few times a minute at most.
  4. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates. Do not print, log, or transmit any key value.

Maturity

๐Ÿงช Draft: written from Moonraker's public API docs; not yet live-tested end-to-end.

Honesty flags: endpoint paths (/server/info, /printer/objects/query, /server/files/list, /server/files/upload, /printer/print/{start,pause,resume,cancel}, /printer/emergency_stop, /printer/gcode/script, /machine/device_power/device) follow the official Moonraker reference. Raw G-code is HIGH and doubly gated (--enable-raw-gcode plus per-call --confirm). The [authorization] API-key placement is configured in the credential store at collection time; if Moonraker expects the key somewhere other than the default header placement, reconfigure the credential rather than passing the key on the command line.
