Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription

Get detailed info about a named body or sketch

create_sketchB

Create a new sketch on xy/yz/xz plane, optionally offset

draw_rectangleA

Draw a rectangle in the most recent sketch

draw_circleB

Draw a circle in the most recent sketch

draw_lineB

Draw a line in the most recent sketch

extrudeC

Extrude a sketch profile

revolveB

Revolve a sketch profile around an axis

filletB

Round edges of a body

chamferC

Chamfer edges of a body

shellB

Hollow out a body by removing a face

mirrorB

Mirror a body across a construction plane

move_bodyB

Translate a named body by (x, y, z)

export_stlB

Export a named body as an STL file

boolean_operationB

Combine two named bodies (join/cut/intersect)

delete_allA

Clear the design (delete all timeline items)

undoB

Undo the last operation

execute_codeA

Run arbitrary Python in Fusion 360. The last expression's value is returned (REPL-style). Pre-defined names: app, ui, design, component, adsk, math.

sweepB

Sweep a sketch profile along a path (sketch curve)

loftB

Loft between two or more sketch profiles

create_polygonB

Draw a regular polygon in the most recent sketch

draw_arcB

Draw an arc in the most recent sketch (center + start point + sweep angle)

create_holeB

Create a hole feature on a body face

rectangular_patternB

Pattern a body in rows and columns

circular_patternC

Pattern a body around an axis

create_componentB

Create a new component (sub-assembly) in the design

add_jointB

Add a joint between two components

list_componentsB

List all components in the design

export_stepB

Export a body or component as a STEP file

export_f3dA

Export the design as a native Fusion 360 archive (.f3d)

get_parametersB

List all user parameters in the design

create_parameterB

Create a new user parameter

set_parameterB

Update the value of an existing user parameter

delete_parameterB

Remove a user parameter

add_constraintB

Add a geometric constraint in the active sketch. Entities are referenced by index within the sketch.

add_dimensionB

Add a driving dimension to constrain sketch geometry. Value is in cm for distances, degrees for angles.

create_construction_planeB

Create a construction plane for sketching

create_construction_axisC

Create a construction axis

draw_splineA

Draw a spline in the most recent sketch. Use fit_points for a curve through points, or control_points for a control-polygon spline.

offset_curveB

Offset connected sketch curves by a distance. Direction is determined by the direction_point.

trim_curveA

Trim a sketch curve at its intersections. The segment nearest to the given point is removed.

extend_curveA

Extend a sketch curve to the nearest intersection. The end nearest to the given point is extended.

create_threadA

Add threads to a cylindrical face (cosmetic or modeled)

draft_facesB

Add a draft angle to faces of a body (for mold release / injection molding)

split_bodyB

Split a body using a plane or face

split_faceB

Split faces of a body using a plane

offset_facesB

Push/pull faces of a body by a distance

scale_bodyB

Scale a body uniformly or non-uniformly

create_boxC

Create a box primitive (non-parametric via TemporaryBRepManager)

create_cylinderC

Create a cylinder primitive (non-parametric via TemporaryBRepManager)

create_sphereB

Create a sphere primitive (non-parametric via TemporaryBRepManager)

create_torusB

Create a torus primitive (non-parametric via TemporaryBRepManager)

create_as_built_jointC

Create a joint from components' current positions (easier than geometric joints)

create_rigid_groupB

Lock multiple components together

measure_distanceB

Measure minimum distance between two entities

measure_angleB

Measure angle between two entities

get_physical_propertiesB

Get mass, volume, surface area, center of mass, and density of a body

create_section_analysisB

Cut a section plane through the model

check_interferenceB

Detect collisions between components/bodies

set_appearanceB

Assign a material appearance to a body, face, or component from the Fusion appearance library

project_geometryB

Project edges or bodies onto the active sketch plane

suppress_featureB

Suppress (disable) a feature in the timeline

unsuppress_featureB

Unsuppress (re-enable) a feature in the timeline

patch_surfaceB

Create a patch surface from boundary edges

stitch_surfacesB

Stitch surface bodies into a single body

thicken_surfaceB

Thicken a surface body into a solid

ruled_surfaceB

Create a ruled surface from an edge or sketch curve

trim_surfaceB
