Use when the user wants to create, edit, or print a parametric 3D model from a natural-language description — "phone stand", "wall mount", "honeycomb tray", "GoPro adapter", "vase" — or to tweak, re-render, or fix an existing CadQuery `.py` part for hobbyist 3D printing.

Enrich a short or vague 3D-object prompt into a detailed, print-ready design brief before modeling. Use when the user asks for an object in a few words — "phone stand", "wall hook", "pen holder", "planter", "GoPro mount" — and the request lacks dimensions, features, style, or ergonomic detail. Analyzes the intended shape and returns a structured brief with popular, well-considered defaults so the generated object comes out refined and appealing rather than generic.

Use when the user asks to develop, build, implement, or add a new FEATURE end-to-end in the Panda desktop app and wants it taken all the way to a pull request. Triggers on "build/add/implement a feature", "ship this", "take it to a PR" for multi-step work touching the viewer / cadpy / cadjs / tauri / skills layers. NOT for one-line fixes, bug triage, questions, or edits with no PR.

Use when launching, starting, running, or driving the Panda desktop app (Tauri shell + Vite viewer) — to see a change live, smoke-test the chat/CAD UI, or keep the app running across steps. Covers cargo-not-on-PATH, the blank-window dev port footgun, and detached/persistent launch.

Start or reuse CAD Viewer and return review links for explicit CAD, robot-description, and G-code files. Use when visually reviewing `.step`, `.stp`, `.stl`, `.3mf`, `.gcode`, `.dxf`, `.urdf`, `.srdf`, or `.sdf` files, especially when handed off from CAD, URDF, SRDF, or SDF generation skills.

Find, evaluate, and download common purchasable CAD parts from step.parts, including named off-the-shelf actuators, servos, motors, electronics boards, connectors, screws, bolts, nuts, washers, bearings, standoffs, and other catalog components. Use when Codex needs to search the hosted step.parts catalog before creating simplified placeholder geometry, resolve fuzzy part names, standards, aliases, or dimensions, choose a matching part, fetch a canonical .step file, verify checksums, or use the step.parts API/OpenAPI/catalog endpoints for standard part discovery.
