≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

SCAD Library Round-Anything Skill
Use Round-Anything when the runtime prompt lists use <Round-Anything/polyround.scad> or use <polyround.scad> and the requested part is naturally built from rounded 2D sketches extruded into 3D.
Import
Use the exact include/use statement shown by the runtime prompt. Common forms are:
use <Round-Anything/polyround.scad>or:
use <polyround.scad>Best Uses
- Use
polyRound()for rounded polygons instead of manually approximating rounded corners. - Use
polyRoundExtrude()for rounded plates, brackets, tabs, bezels, lips, and soft rectangular profiles. - Use
shell2d()patterns for open shells and wall outlines when the part is sketch-driven. - Use rounded profiles for stress relief and visual polish.
- Prefer Round-Anything over
minkowski()for complex 2D outlines that need controlled corner radii.
Generation Pattern
Represent profile points as [x, y, radius] and keep radii parameterized:
use <Round-Anything/polyround.scad>
/* [Profile] */
width = 70; // min: 20 max: 180 step: 1
depth = 42; // min: 15 max: 120 step: 1
thickness = 5; // min: 1.2 max: 20 step: 0.5
corner_radius = 5; // min: 0 max: 20 step: 0.5
profile = [
[-width/2, -depth/2, corner_radius],
[ width/2, -depth/2, corner_radius],
[ width/2, depth/2, corner_radius],
[-width/2, depth/2, corner_radius],
];
polyRoundExtrude(profile, thickness, corner_radius, corner_radius, fn=32);Quality Rules
- Keep each radius less than half the adjacent segment length.
- Use smaller radii on tabs, clips, and screw ears than on cosmetic outer corners.
- Prefer a simple rounded profile plus boolean cutouts over many nested hull operations.
- Keep profile arrays readable and derived from top-level parameters.
Avoid
- Do not use
minkowskiRoundby default; it is slow and fragile for generated models. - Do not use Round-Anything for pure cylinders or simple cuboids if BOSL2 can express the shape more clearly.
- Do not copy library source into generated SCAD.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
