CLUSTER MODELS-SOLID-CAD · 4 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2021-01-31
Parametric CAD and 3D printing
This cluster comprises tools for parametric 3D modeling and CAD, including script-driven modelers, a node-based visual editor, and an MCP server for controlling Rhino via natural language. The dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from—only 2 dated entries exist. On traction, all named members (rhino-mcp, AdamPrint, openscad-nightly) have 0 stars, so no clear leader emerges.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 4 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
