cad-gcode-skill

cad-gcode-skill is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from darellchua2/opencode-config-template. It costs 53 tokens per session (1,441 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A skill that turns 3D mesh files into G-code using a slicer and a specified printer profile. A slicer converts a model into the layer-by-layer instructions a 3D printer follows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Slicing STL, OBJ, 3MF, PLY, GLB, or GLTF models into printer-profiled G-code.
Why use it?
It provides inspection, dry-run, and validation steps before generating the printer instructions, without contacting a printer.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cad-gcode-skill scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/gcode_tool.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 143 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

G-code

Provenance: maintained in earthtojake/text-to-cad. Use the installed local skill files as the runtime source of truth; the repository link is only for provenance and release review.

Use this skill for plain .gcode generation from mesh files. It is printer-agnostic and never uploads, starts, or packages print jobs.

Workflow

  1. Confirm the input is a supported mesh: .stl, .obj, unsliced .3mf, .ply, .glb, or .gltf.
  2. Require an explicit printer/profile wrapper JSON. Do not invent real-printer profiles.
  3. Discover slicer backends when the backend is unknown:
python scripts/gcode_tool.py discover
  1. Inspect the input:
python scripts/gcode_tool.py inspect --input path/to/model.stl --json
  1. Dry-run the slicer command before executing:
python scripts/gcode_tool.py slice \
  --input path/to/model.stl \
  --output /tmp/model.gcode \
  --profile path/to/profile.json \
  --backend auto \
  --dry-run
  1. Execute only after the dry-run command and profile are appropriate:
python scripts/gcode_tool.py slice \
  --input path/to/model.stl \
  --output /tmp/model.gcode \
  --profile path/to/profile.json \
  --backend auto \
  --execute
  1. Validate the generated G-code:
python scripts/gcode_tool.py validate \
  --gcode /tmp/model.gcode \
  --profile path/to/profile.json \
  --json

CAD Viewer Handoff

After completing G-code work that creates or modifies a plain .gcode, you must ALWAYS hand the explicit file path to the cad-viewer-skill (load via skill tool) when that skill is installed. the cad-viewer-skill (load via skill tool) must start CAD Viewer if it is not already running and return link(s) to the relevant created or updated file(s); the preview is diagnostic only and does not replace this skill's static validation. If the cad-viewer-skill (load via skill tool) is unavailable or startup fails, report that instead of silently omitting the handoff.

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
