Frequently asked questions
OSH Park scores D+ on Supergood's API Report Card. OSH Park publishes an upload API and ships Ruby and JavaScript clients, but full programmatic ordering requires emailing support for access. Docs are a single tips page and the clients have sat at 2014 code.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly. Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.
OSH Park is a United States based printed circuit board prototyping service. Customers upload Gerber or supported EDA design files, receive an instant quote, and order boards directly from the site, with OSH Park panelizing many small orders together.
Manufacturing, specifically PCB prototyping and small batch board fabrication. A team exports Gerber files from KiCad, Eagle or another supported tool, uploads them to oshpark.com, reviews the generated board preview, and places an order for a small run of boards.
OSH Park is a recognized community PCB prototyping service used by open hardware projects such as the Portland State Aerospace Society OreSat and ThunderScope, though no customer counts or market share figures are published.
The operating data held by OSH Park includes uploaded board designs and Gerber file sets, generated board previews and processing warnings, project records, quotes, order records and order status, and the historical trail of a hardware team's board revisions.
OSH Park has operated as an online PCB prototyping service for well over a decade, and its public client libraries on GitHub trace back to 2014 with a master default branch and an MIT license.
Common alternatives include JLCPCB, PCBWay, Seeed Studio, Sunstone Circuits. Graded alternatives appear under "More from the report card" below.
Supergood's grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? Supergood checks six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and rolls them into a letter grade. Supergood re-verifies grades, and they only move on evidence.
Not that we could find. There is no official OSH Park MCP server in any public registry, and no maintained community server we're aware of. We re-verify this periodically — report an inaccuracy below if we missed one.
Not natively. OSH Park doesn't publish an MCP server, so MCP clients like Claude, Cursor, and Codex have nothing to connect to out of the box. If that changes, this page will reflect it.
