Overview

Kinkajou Bridge

Kinkajou Bridge is a local multi-printer hub that connects 3D printers to Streamer.bot and other tools through a shared HTTP and WebSocket API. Windows users can install a packaged app; Mac and Linux users run Bridge from source.

What it does

Connects services (for example Bambu Lab cloud), printers (cloud or LAN), and integrations (Streamer.bot)
Supports multiple printers and mixed connection paths at once
Fires Streamer.bot DoAction on Kinkajou Bridge (with event_name / printer args) when Streamer.bot is connected
Serves OBS overlays and a local API so on-stream widgets, bots, and other apps use the same hub
Runs as a system tray app and optionally headless (--service)

Streamer.bot is optional. Bridge can integrate with Streamer.bot for automation, but built-in and custom overlays talk to Bridge directly — they do not require Streamer.bot.
