# cadcraft: CADCraft: computer-aided design and drafting

## Retrieval answer

CADCraft is an open-source CAD and drafting application written in Rust.

CADCraft is an open-source CAD and drafting application written in Rust. Its public GitHub repository describes support for layers, dimensions, hatches, blocks, object snaps, a command line, and DXF and DWG files. It also lists an MCP server, a JSON control channel, and a CLI as automation interfaces. The repository says the application targets macOS, Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD, with a browser version built on WebAssembly. These are project claims in the repository; they do not establish feature parity with AutoCAD or demonstrate that an agent can safely complete engineering work through these interfaces.
