 "repo_slug": "tangency-labs-solidcraft",
 "title": "Design a 3D-printable case for a dev board",
 "page_title": "How to design a 3D-printable case for a dev board with solidcraft",
 "summary": "Follow the README's Raspberry Pi style workflow: dimensioned sketch, shell, standoffs, port cut-outs, then export for printing.",
 "who": "Hobbyist who needs a custom case for a Raspberry Pi or similar board",
 "problem": "Off-the-shelf cases rarely fit your exact board layout, and mesh editors make small tweaks painful.",
 "outcome": "A parametric case where changing one height value rebuilds the whole part, exported as a printable file.",
 "steps": [
  "Open the desktop app and create a sketch using your board's dimensions as parameters.",
  "Extrude, then use fillet and shell to form the case walls.",
  "Pattern standoffs over the mounting holes and cut ports and vents.",
  "Export as STL or 3MF for your slicer."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using SolidCraft, walk me through building a case for <board name> with parameters for board length, width and wall thickness, and tell me which export format to use for 3D printing. Verify the wall thickness is a named parameter.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "1 hour",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README demo is a Pi 4 case; matching a different board means you must supply its real hole positions and port locations yourself.",
 "category": "Games & Hobbies",
 "tags": [
  "Games & Hobbies"
 ],
 "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"
