The project developed around constraint-based sketches, a rebuildable feature timeline, parameters and expressions, solid modeling, and portable native and web front ends. The project was previously released under another product name. Its compatibility documentation preserves earlier designs and settings, while newer designs use the `.sc` filename extension. Public development continues through frequent GitHub releases and an openly maintained roadmap. ### Adoption history SolidCraft is distributed as a desktop application, browser application, headless CLI, and MCP server. That range supports interactive modeling, scripted validation and export, and CAD workflows driven by AI agents. Official documentation describes SolidCraft as early software: core sketching, solid modeling, parameters, assemblies, sheet-metal work, and a subset of enclosure design are available, while surfaces, drawings, CAM, and simulation remain roadmap work. ### How it is used Users create constrained sketches, turn profiles into solids, organize features on a timeline, and drive geometry with unit-aware expressions and named parameters. Changing a parameter rebuilds dependent features. Automation users run `solidcraft-cli` command scripts for headless modeling, measurement, and export, or connect an AI client to the MCP server. Designs are stored in `.sc` files, with older `.solidcraft` files retained for compatibility. ### Why package nerds care SolidCraft is interesting to package maintainers because it is a pure-Rust parametric CAD stack spanning native GPU-rendered desktop builds, WebAssembly, a headless CLI, and MCP automation. It offers an unusually modern systems-language approach to a software category commonly built from large C++ geometry and GUI stacks. Its command architecture is also distinctive: toolbar actions, dialogs, scripts, the CLI, the control channel, and MCP all invoke the same JSON-parameterized command engine. ### Timeline - 2026: SolidCraft documentation described native desktop, browser, CLI, and MCP interfaces under the SolidCraft name. - 2026: Public releases continued the project's early 0.x development and backward compatibility with designs saved under its previous name. ### Related projects - FreeCAD is used by SolidCraft's official reference tests when checking modeling results. - SolidCraft's MCP server exposes its modeling command engine to compatible AI clients. ### Sources - - - - ## Security Notes No matching local secret-handling manifest was found for solidcraft.
