CAD & Generative Design Essentials
A starter pack for designers and engineers who want Claude to think in geometry, parameters, and material. Programmatic art, scientific figures, and a builder for hooking up your own CAD tools via MCP.
Install the whole bundle
5 skills into ~/.claude/skills/. Free.
Paste into your terminal. Restart Claude Code afterwards — new skills are picked up on startup.
This copies each skill's full folder (SKILL.md plus any supporting scripts, reference docs, or asset templates) so every skill works out of the box. Safe default.
Faster alternative (instruction-only skills)
Skips the git clone and downloads only each SKILL.md. Avoid if any skill in the bundle ships Python scripts, reference markdowns, or asset templates — they'll be missing and the skill will fail when it tries to load them.
