// cómo funciona

Cómo funciona

  1. Describe the part

    Decide the part, dimensions and export format (STEP for CAD, STL for printing) you need.

  2. Get text-to-cad

    Install it through your agent app - plugin directories for Codex/Claude Code, or a config entry for Claude Desktop.

  3. Connect the CAD server

    The plugin starts the local CAD server via uv; make sure uv is installed.

  4. Generate your first model

    Ask the agent for a part and review it in the CAD Viewer before exporting.

// características

Por qué gusta tanto

Agent-native CAD generation

Your agent writes and runs CAD code (via the cadgen tooling) instead of producing a static mesh image.

Real engineering formats

Exports STEP/STP and STL files usable in downstream CAD and 3D-printing workflows.

In-chat CAD viewer

Models appear as viewer cards you can orbit and inspect where the host app supports it, or via a browser link.

Broad agent support

Documented installs for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor, Grok Build, Gemini and other MCP clients.

Skills included

Ships skills that teach the agent the CAD workflow and conventions.

Local execution

Generation runs locally through uv; your files stay on your machine (telemetry is optional and can be turned off).

Ejecútalo tú mismo

  1. Clone the repository

    Get the source code from GitHub and enter the project directory.

    git clone https://github.com/earthtojake/text-to-cad.git
    cd text-to-cad
  2. Add it to Claude Desktop

    Add the CAD server to Claude Desktop's config (Settings > Developer > Edit Config), then restart the app - the config pins a cadgen release run through uvx.

    # Paste the server config from the README's Claude Desktop section, then restart Claude Desktop
  3. Manage telemetry and updates

    Telemetry can be disabled from the command line, and updates follow the per-host instructions in the README.

// preguntas frecuentes

Preguntas frecuentes

Who maintains this project?

It is maintained by earthtojake and contributors on GitHub.

Is it free to use?

Yes - text-to-cad is MIT licensed and free to use.

Does it need a paid API key?

The CAD tooling runs locally for free; the agent driving it (Claude, Codex and so on) uses your own subscription or API access.

How does it compare to alternatives?

Compared with image-to-3D generators, text-to-cad produces code-based, parametric CAD with real STEP exports through your existing agent, rather than one-shot meshes.

How do I get started?

Install it from your agent's plugin directory (or add the server config in Claude Desktop), restart the app, and ask for a simple part.
