🛠️ CAD Skills: Generate CAD & Robotics with AI

AI agents generate, inspect, and fabricate CAD models, robot files, and G-code from text prompts.

CAD Skills is library of agent skills for physical product design. Provides modular workflows for generating, inspecting, and slicing CAD and robot-description artifacts from local project files. Install via Skills CLI or provider plugins to let AI agents handle CAD, robotics, and fabrication tasks.

✨ Highlights

• CAD Generation: Creates and edits CAD models from plain-language or image requests, with STEP as main output, plus STL, 3MF, and GLB export.
• step.parts: Finds off-the-shelf STEP parts like screws, bearings, motors, and connectors.
• DXF Drawings: Creates 2D DXF drawings like profiles, templates, gaskets, and cut layouts from Python or CAD geometry.
• URDF & SRDF: Writes robot structure files, adds MoveIt planning groups, end effectors, and collision rules.
• SDF Simulation: Creates simulator models and worlds with frames, physics, sensors, and lights.
• G-code Slicing: Slices mesh files into validated, printer-profiled FDM .gcode using real slicer CLIs.
• CAD Viewer: Shows local browser previews for CAD, G-code, and robot files.
• SendCutSend Validation: Checks DXF and STEP files before upload to SendCutSend.

💡 Why it matters

CAD Skills gives AI agents direct access to physical design and fabrication workflows. Replaces monolithic CAD software with modular, scriptable skills that bridge natural language to production-ready formats like STEP, URDF, and G-code. Ideal for mechanical engineering, robotics simulation, and automated fabrication pipelines.
