“We don’t fix the problem. We fix the reason the problem exists.”
Atlas Protocol is a modular, intent-driven digital design framework that flips the entire design paradigm.
Instead of designing parts and retrofitting them into systems, Atlas starts from intent and builds outward — generating digital twins, ripple-aware revisions, ERP integration, and Git-style versioning for the physical world.
Atlas isn’t just a tool — it’s a protocol for co-creating modular systems from input logic, material constraints, and ripple-safe propagation.
- Twin-first design (not model-last)
- Intent-based geometry generation
- Full part/assembly version control (via Enigma)
- Ripple conflict detection + auto-adjustment (via BOMBE)
- ERP-aware stock logic and BOM completion (via Relay)
- Real-world material availability forecasting (via Caladan)
- Performance comparison and stress testing (via Gauntlet)

OCC Wrapper
Built with Pybind11, currently functional with core modeling tools (box, fuse, cut, translate, etc.).
Provides direct access to OpenCascade geometry from Python without external dependencies like Conda. -
GUI
PySide6 + VTK viewer now renders geometry directly from Python modules (no intermediate STL/STEP files needed).
Live rescan function allows hot-loading of model modules from the/modelsdirectory.
- Expand OCC wrapper with advanced modeling operations (sheet metal bends, fastener library, etc.).
- Integrate automatic model scanning and intent parsing for richer model metadata.
- Add card-style panels, theme support, and more interactive GUI controls.
- Implement export pipelines for STEP, DXF, and drawing generation directly from the viewer.
