cli-anything-freecad

cli-anything-freecad is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HKUDS/CLI-Anything. It costs 185 tokens per session (4,365 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command-line tool for building parametric 3D computer-aided design models in FreeCAD. Parametric models are defined by editable measurements and constraints, so changing one part can update related parts.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create mechanical parts and assemblies, sketch constrained geometry, apply features such as holes and fillets, work with meshes, and capture or monitor model previews.
Why use it?
It allows 3D design work to be automated and inspected from the terminal, including operations normally performed across FreeCAD workbenches.

About the project

CLI-Anything turns software and services into command-line interfaces that AI agents can use to perform tasks and produce artifacts. It is intended for people building or using agent workflows with tools such as coding assistants, design software, and other applications. The catalogue entries are skills, commands, a plugin, and a rule for working with CLI-Anything.

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

cli-anything-freecad 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 8d ago.

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.

cli-anything-freecad

Complete CLI harness for FreeCAD — 258 commands across 17 groups covering ALL workbenches.

Prerequisites

FreeCAD must be installed: freecadcmd must be in PATH.

Installation

pip install -e freecad/agent-harness

Basic Usage

cli-anything-freecad --json <command>           # JSON output for agents
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json <cmd>  # With project file
cli-anything-freecad                            # Interactive REPL

Preview, Live Preview, and Motion

FreeCAD is currently the deepest preview integration in this branch.

Preview commands:

# List preview recipes
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview recipes

# Capture a real 4-view bundle
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview capture --recipe quick

# Start poll-mode live preview
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview live start --recipe quick --mode poll --source-poll-ms 500

# Query current live state without rendering
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview live status --recipe quick

# Stop live preview publication
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview live stop --recipe quick

Typical quick bundle artifacts:

  • hero.png
  • front.png
  • top.png
  • right.png

Live preview persists:

  • session.json
  • immutable bundle directories
  • trajectory.json

preview live status --json is intended for agents and includes a compact trajectory_summary in addition to _session_dir, current bundle refs, and _trajectory_path.

Viewer commands:

cli-hub previews inspect /path/to/bundle-or-session
cli-hub previews html /path/to/bundle-or-session -o page.html
cli-hub previews watch /path/to/session --open
cli-hub previews open /path/to/bundle-or-session

Motion commands remain separate from preview and are used for final truthful frame rendering and showcase videos:

cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json motion new --name spin --duration 6 --fps 24
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json motion keyframe spin --time 0.0 --part 0 --position 0,0,0
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json motion render-video spin output.mp4

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.
