Progressive Loading Guide

Load ONLY what you need for the current task:

Level 1: Status Check (most common)

bambu status          # full status overview
bambu status --json   # programmatic access
bambu temp            # just temperatures  
bambu ams             # just AMS/filament info
bambu errors          # any active errors

Level 2: Print Operations

# Start a print from SD card
bambu print "filename.3mf"

# Upload and print in one step
bambu job upload-and-print ./my-part.3mf

# Control running print
bambu pause
bambu resume  
bambu stop

# Live monitoring (streams progress)
bambu watch

Level 3: Hardware Control

# Temperature
bambu heat nozzle:220 bed:60
bambu cooldown

# Fans (0-100%)
bambu fan part 80
bambu fan aux 50
bambu fan chamber 30

# Lights
bambu light on
bambu light off

# Movement
bambu home
bambu move x:10 y:20 z:5
bambu gcode "G28"

Level 4: AMS Filament Management

# Check what's loaded
bambu ams

# Load specific tray (0-3)
bambu load 0
bambu load 2

# Unload current filament
bambu unload

Level 5: File Management & Calibration

# SD card files
bambu files
bambu upload ./part.3mf
bambu delete old-print.3mf

# Calibration
bambu calibrate bed
bambu calibrate vibration
bambu calibrate flow
bambu calibrate all

Common Agent Workflows

"Print this file"

bambu job upload-and-print ./part.3mf
bambu watch  # monitor until done

"Check if printer is ready"

bambu status --json | jq '.gcode_state'
# IDLE = ready, RUNNING = busy, FAILED = needs attention

"What filament is loaded?"

bambu ams --json

"Preheat for PLA"

bambu heat nozzle:210 bed:60

"Preheat for ABS"

bambu heat nozzle:260 bed:100

"Something went wrong"

bambu errors --json   # check HMS error codes
bambu status          # full state overview

"Finish up and shut down"

bambu cooldown
bambu light off

Output Modes

• Default: Human-readable, emoji-prefixed, compact. Optimized for LLM context windows.
• --json: Raw JSON for programmatic parsing. Use with jq for field extraction.

Safety Notes

• bambu status, bambu temp, bambu ams, bambu errors, bambu version, bambu files are read-only and always safe.
• bambu print, bambu stop, bambu heat, bambu move, bambu gcode control the printer physically. The nozzle is 200°C+. Use judgment.
• bambu calibrate moves the printer head. Ensure bed is clear.
• bambu gcode sends raw G-code. Know what you're sending.
