 "title": "Generate a STEP file from a JSON command script",
 "page_title": "How to generate a STEP file from a JSON command script with solidcraft",
 "summary": "Run a saved JSON command list from the CLI so the same part can be rebuilt on demand, no GUI.",
 "who": "Developer or engineer who wants repeatable CAD output in a build pipeline",
 "problem": "Clicking through a CAD GUI cannot be versioned, reviewed or automated.",
 "outcome": "A text script in git that deterministically produces a STEP file you can hand to a manufacturer.",
 "steps": [
  "Build from source: cargo run --release -p solidcraft-cli -- commands to list available commands.",
  "Study the example script at examples/bracket.json.",
  "Run it: cargo run --release -p solidcraft-cli -- run examples/bracket.json --out bracket.step",
  "Edit a dimension in the JSON and rerun to confirm the output changes."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the solidcraft repo, read docs/scripts.md and examples/bracket.json, then write a new script for <part description> and run it with solidcraft-cli to produce a STEP file. Verify the output file exists and opens.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "1 hour",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Scripts are a list of the same commands the UI runs, so you need to look up command names from the registry rather than guess them.",

 "tags": [
  "Software & DevOps"
 ],
 "lang": "rust",
 "requirements": [
  "Windows, macOS or Linux desktop, or just a modern web browser (no install needed)",
  "Rust toolchain only if building from source",
  "An MCP-capable agent such as Claude Code only for the agent-driven uses",
  "No paid keys or accounts"
