Hi all, repo author here, appreciate the kind words and feedback!

I'm brushing up on robotics after spending the last 10 years working in software land. After being humbled by modern CAD tools like Onshape, I built this harness / skill to help me generate some basic CAD models for a 7dof robot arm I'm designing.

It ended up working much better than I expected, particularly on the latest GPT 5.5 and Opus 4.7 models. It's been a lot of fun to work on. I've learned a lot about how STEP files work (opencascade, breps, etc) as well as 3d rendering tools like threejs.

I don't have much intention of turning this into a business, it's really just a fun open source tool that I'll continue to maintain as long as myself and others find it useful. Very open to ideas and contributions.

P.S. I just pushed a major update that improves the workflow and scripts/tools for the CAD skill. I also added some basic benchmarks to start measuring performance over time.
