TOOLCAD: Exploring Tool-Using Large Language Models in Text-to-CAD Generation with Reinforcement Learning

ArXi:2604.07960v1 Announce Type: cross Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is an expert-level task that relies on long-horizon reasoning and coherent modeling actions. Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown remarkable advancements in enabling language agents to tackle real-world tasks. Notably, there has been no investigation into how tool-using LLMs optimally interact with CAD engines, hindering the emergence of LLM-based agentic text-to-CAD modeling systems. We propose ToolCAD, a novel agentic CAD framework deploying LLMs as tool-using agents for text-to-CAD generation. Furthermore, we
