redrob-cad
Agentic 2D drafting app where an AI agent draws, edits, and checks DWG and DXF drawings over MCP.
Summary rewritten from the vendor site because the catalog version did not match it.
What it does and how it connects
Redrob CAD is an agentic 2D drafting app that lets an AI agent draw, edit and check DWG and DXF drawings. It is written in Rust and runs natively on macOS, Windows and Linux. Agents drive it over MCP, and the README lists two planned next steps, one pull request each: Redrob Code as the built-in agent, talking to the app over MCP, and Connect device, so the app signs in to a Redrob workspace.
The README states the status as early. The v0.0.9 release cut the link to the CADCraft upstream and renamed the project to Redrob CAD. The repo carries a NOTICE file for code origin and attribution, and the license is MIT or Apache-2.0 at the user's option.

Not verified
- Pricing: none stated on the repo or the redrob.io homepage as read; the homepage URL is from the repo metadata and its page content was not separately fetched.
- Real user voices: no real linked post read for this page; recent repo activity is maintainer and bot pull requests.
- A named individual builder beyond the redrob-labs organization.
- The catalog one-liner calls this an agentic parametric 3D modeller; the README describes a 2D drafting app for DWG and DXF, so the one-liner was rewritten from the README.
- Tool type commercial-product is the catalog label; the repo itself is open source (MIT OR Apache-2.0).
