CADForge: Agentic Single-View CAD Reconstruction with Explicit Geometry Reasoning
On the map: LLM agents and tool use → Multimodal and embodied agents
Abstract (arXiv)
Reconstructing editable parametric CAD models from a single-view image is of great practical value for modern manufacturing, yet remains challenging due to incomplete geometric observations and complex inter-part relationships. To address it, we propose CADForge, an agentic framework that progressively converts a single image into CadQuery programs. CADForge decomposes an object into CAD-meaningful components and performs explicit geometric reasoning for each component, a process that first identifies CAD-relevant constraints and then translates them into precise modeling parameters through mathematical code. The inferred parameters then drive component-wise synthesis of executable CadQuery programs, with a review agent evaluating the resulting geometry and providing targeted feedback for iterative refinement. To further improve robustness and efficiency, CADForge incorporates a failure-guided toolkit construction mechanism to distill accumulated experience into tools, and maintains a compact parametric CAD memory for retrieving modeling context on demand. Experiments on diverse single- and multi-part objects show that CADForge consistently outperforms existing baselines in reconstruction fidelity and perceptual quality, demonstrating an effective approach to accurate single-view CAD reconstruction.
