 "title": "Run a JSON script to export a bracket as STEP",
 "page_title": "How to run a JSON script to export a bracket as STEP with Solidcraft",
 "summary": "Use the headless CLI to run a script and write a STEP file without opening the app.",
 "who": "An engineer or pipeline owner who needs the same part regenerated on demand whenever a spec changes.",
 "problem": "Rebuilding a part by hand each time a value changes wastes time and invites mistakes.",
 "outcome": "A bracket.step file produced from a versioned JSON script that can be rerun.",
 "steps": [
  "Clone the repo from github.com/tangency-labs/solidcraft and install Rust.",
  "Check the available commands with `cargo run --release -p solidcraft-cli -- commands`.",
  "Run the example script with `cargo run --release -p solidcraft-cli -- run examples/bracket.json --out bracket.step`.",
  "Open bracket.step in any tool that reads STEP files to confirm the geometry.",
  "Copy examples/bracket.json, change a value in the copy, and rerun the command with a new output name."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the tangency-labs/solidcraft repo, run examples/bracket.json with solidcraft-cli and write <output-file>.step. Expected output: a STEP file at that path. Verify the file exists, is not empty, and that the command exits without errors.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "45 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README describes the script format but does not describe the geometry the bracket example produces, so check the output yourself.",

 "lang": "rust",
 "requirements": [
  "Windows, macOS or Linux desktop, or a web browser for the browser app",
  "Rust toolchain and the repo cloned from github.com/tangency-labs/solidcraft for the cargo commands",
  "Claude Code installed for the MCP registration step"
