We present FoldingAgent, an agentic framework for inferring explicit parametric folding programs directly from origami demonstration videos. Our framework leverages the reasoning power of a pre-trained Vision-Language Model (VLM) equipped with a suite of specialized tools that enable the agent to simulate geometric transitions, verify physical plausibility, retrieve and compare visual content, and evaluate its own predictions. To translate visual content into folding programs, we define a parametric space that consists of the paper's geometry and a set of parametric folding actions. Unlike models that predict static crease patterns, our agent operates sequentially and possesses the ability to re-plan its actions, effectively mitigating the compounding errors inherent in multi-step folding. Our approach takes a step toward closing the gap between human origami knowledge, which is primarily shared through unstructured visual demonstrations, and computational methods, which typically rely on structured, parametric representations such as a crease pattern or an executable parametric plan. We evaluate our approach on PurelandFold, a newly curated benchmark of diverse Pureland origami videos with ground-truth geometry and action labels. Our results demonstrate that by combining VLM reasoning with a set of specialized tools and physical simulation, we can successfully transform unstructured visual demonstrations into executable, physically plausible folding procedures.
Recovering an executable parametric CAD program from an observed object is fundamentally ambiguous, because the same final geometry can result from different construction procedures. We study this problem from four types of input: natural-language descriptions, rendered images, point clouds, and STEP/B-Rep geometry. MIRAGE-CAD maps each input to a shared construction representation and mediates program generation through an explicit construction-plan interface. The resulting Python CAD code is executed by an OpenCASCADE kernel to build the solid and export it as STEP. On 2,500 held-out queries per modality, the system achieves 55.4-70.0% build success and 52.3-66.2% STEP export success without retrieval at inference. Controlled comparisons show that strong reconstruction does not depend on expressing the construction representation as text: a decoder conditioned directly on the continuous representation also reconstructs strongly, while an exposure-matched plan-based decoder shows no detected material loss in per-part geometric fidelity. The explicit plan instead provides a readable and separately measurable intermediate representation whose agreement with the reference construction is informative about downstream execution success. Finally, we show that executable validity, geometric fidelity, and parametric responsiveness can diverge substantially and should therefore be evaluated separately.
Automating industrial CAD design and manufacturing places distinctive demands on multimodal foundation models: the model must see engineering drawings and 3D geometry screenshots, write correct parametric-modelling scripts and Windows COM API code, and cover the full range from single parts to assemblies. General-purpose multimodal models fall short on these tasks, while single-task fine-tuning is too narrow to support the diverse calls that upper-layer agents issue. We build IndustryForge-27B on top of Qwen3.5-VL-27B by curating and integrating six industrial-CAD sub-corpora totalling $\sim$52k multimodal samples---CAD Visual QA (CAD-VQA), parametric CAD code (text2cadquery), assembly-level CAD code (text2cadquery-assembly), and three COM sub-corpora for Inventor / SolidWorks (com_2d / com_3d / com_assembly)---and training with a unified multi-task SFT recipe. Across four CAD-domain benchmarks IndustryForge-27B lifts the base model by $+33.65$~pp on average and outperforms the strong closed-source model GPT-5.4 on all four; across eleven general-capability benchmarks it retains, and slightly improves upon, the base model ($+1.56$~pp mean, no catastrophic forgetting). IndustryForge-27B will serve as the common substrate for downstream industrial-agent projects, providing a unified starting point for a full-stack industrial agent that spans from CAD design to industrial-software operation, from parts to assemblies, and from single-shot generation to closed-loop self-improvement.
Multimodal large language models can write code to produce complex programs as well as use programs to do 3D modeling, which opens up a new avenue for 3D generation powered by their priors, world knowledge and reasoning. Yet existing benchmarks rarely evaluate 3D modeling through code. Such modeling demands more than runnable code: from a text or visual specification, a model must generate a parametric 3D program that is geometrically precise, semantically aligned and assembly-consistent. We introduce P3D-Bench, a benchmark for parametric 3D generation. Unlike a 3D mesh, a parametric 3D program exposes explicit dimensions, construction operations and part relations, revealing whether a model recovers a design's structure, not just its appearance. Under a unified protocol, P3D-Bench covers three task families (Text-to-3D, Image-to-3D and Assembly-3D) and scores each output for executability, geometric fidelity, topology, text-grounded constraints, multiview semantic alignment and part-level structure. We evaluate frontier MLLMs and text-only LLMs on 400 text cases, 400 image cases and 203 annotated assemblies, with domain-specific models as reference points. Our extensive evaluation yields three findings. First, assemblies are the hardest setting, where models still fail to compose multiple parts into a coherent structure. Second, models can often recover the global shape and semantic identity of the target object, yet fail to reproduce the precise parametric geometry specified by the input. Third, part-level modeling remains weak on assemblies, where models recover neither the geometry of each part nor the right number of parts. These results position P3D-Bench as a benchmark for evaluating precise parametric geometry and part-level structure in parametric 3D generation.
