OpenSuperCAD
AI-powered native editor for OpenSCAD where an agent writes parametric code, renders it from multiple angles and iterates with git checkpoints.
What it does and how it connects
OpenSuperCAD is an AI-powered native editor for OpenSCAD, written in Rust with a GPU-accelerated UI for Linux, macOS, and Windows. The user describes what they want and an agent of their choice writes the parametric OpenSCAD code, renders it, looks at it from several angles, and iterates with them. Every iteration is checkpointed in git, so any step can be rolled back, and diffs show exactly what an iteration changed.
It speaks the Agent Client Protocol, so Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, Goose, OpenCode, or the user's own agent can drive it with whatever model they prefer. A built-in MCP server gives the agent tools to render, take snapshots from any camera angle, read and tune customizer parameters, export, and manage checkpoints, and a design skill loads automatically so the agent knows the loop. The MCP server also works outside the app, through an opensupercad-mcp command.
It is still OpenSCAD underneath: the upstream openscad binary does the geometry, so every language feature, export format, and option works, and the customizer, view presets, and F5, F6, and F7 keys behave as expected. The README states the project is early, moving fast, and released on every merge to main. It is dual-licensed MIT or Apache-2.0, at the user's option.
