Open-source project
kernelCAD
Headless-first CAD platform for AI agents and human visual review.
CADAI agentsTypeScript
Proof points
- Scriptable geometry generation with OpenCASCADE.
- Visual debugger for reviewing generated 3D models.
- STEP/STL export from deterministic code.
What it is
kernelCAD is a headless-first CAD platform for AI agents. Agents use a scriptable API to generate, analyze, and modify 3D geometry, while humans can review the output in a web-based visual debugger.
Why it matters
The project treats CAD as deterministic code first, not manual clicking. That makes generated geometry easier to inspect, test, export, and revise.
Technical judgment
The platform is built around OpenCASCADE via Replicad, with a TypeScript/Node API, web workers, and a React Three Fiber viewer.
