Machineworthy take

It combines executable geometry, local visual review and specialized CAD workflows rather than only generating a design prompt. Usage/crash telemetry is enabled by default with documented opt-outs; agent providers have separate data policies. The unauthenticated viewer must remain on loopback, and generated designs need human engineering review.

Access and pricing

Free MIT plugin and skills; CAD dependencies retain their own licenses. Agent/model usage, hardware and fabrication cost separately. On Windows with Smart App Control, use the documented WSL path rather than disabling security protections.

Verification notes

Official repository, privacy/security policies and October 18 v0.7.24 release checked on 2026-10-19; no installation or manufacturing-safety certification claimed.
