  • Planned 0 on the plan for the release it is filed under
  • Built 271 built and working in /lab (the dev builds). Whether the public has it is its reach: "in the lab", "Live" (the last gate) or "switched off"; see docs/REACH-LIVE.md
  • Partly built 1 part of it is built in /lab; the rest waits (see "Waits on")
  • Promised 0 the live site already says it is coming
  • Moved 0 moved here from an earlier release or wishlist
  • Found 0 bug found after a release shipped; fixed in a point release or the next one
  • Candidate 0 recommended in a spike or session log; owner to choose
  • Community please test 0 built and in /use; a Discord post gives the steps and the expected result and asks people to try it on their own devices, files or know-how
  • Decision Time 0 a decision, check, file, key, flag or go only you can give; folds into the list once answered

Built means built and working in the lab. Live means the public can use it, and is the last gate: 270 Built · Live, 1 Built · in the lab.

Every fix and feature

Grouped by track. App chips carry each app’s layer colour; Studio is in ink. "Waits on" names what has to happen first; the small lines under it say who asked and where the item is written up.

FeatureZA.1 Link to ZA.1Comment on ZA.1 South African market: SANS 10143 drawing practice + SANS 10400 building regulations

Sell into South Africa: local practice draws to SANS 10143 (building drawing practice) and builds to SANS 10400 (National Building Regulations). Full note for the 2026-10-26 meeting: docs/0.8-ZA-STANDARDS.md. Today: no SA support. BimCraft residential is hard-coded to US codes (res-stair.js IRC stair limits, res-framing.js 2x lumber + US header table, US egress window, US electrical symbols). Suggested order: 1. Built on REG.1: regulations by jurisdiction as library packs; ZA.1 delivers the South African country packs. 2. SANS 10143 drawing pack: metric mm dims, levels in m, A-series sheets, SA title block (erf, SACAP reg. no.), hatches, symbols, D1/W1 marks. 3. SA residential defaults: 230/280 cavity masonry, SA brick and block, 38x114/38x152 timber, trusses, IBR/tile roofs; Part M stair and Part O window-area checks. 4. Part XA energy check (climate zones 1-6, fenestration, R-values) and an SA municipal submission set export. The differentiator. 5. CivilCraft: Hartebeesthoek94 Lo zones with the Y-westing / X-southing axis flip; SANS 10142 electrical symbols. Business: SANS texts are copyrighted (buy, encode, cite clauses, edition dates); POPIA; ZAR + 15% VAT, regional pricing?; offline/load-shedding is a selling point. Meeting questions: 0.8 market or later? Buy the SANS set? An SA reviewer? Regional pricing? Drawing pack or XA first? Afrikaans? All SANS figures are from memory; check against purchased copies before shipping. LAB SAMPLE (2026-10-25): a small South African pack (stairs, room height, window and openable area) can be seen in /lab/bimcraft under Settings > Building regulations. Its numbers are unchecked.

FeatureRL.1 Link to RL.1Comment on RL.1 /download: "Where we release" with current and planned release streams

A tabbed section on /download (#release-streams): Current release streams (this page, the browser at /use, updates inside Studio, GitHub releases) built from Downloads, so a channel shows only with real files; Upcoming and planned streams (Microsoft Store, winget, the signed Windows package, npm/npx, Apple App Store, Homebrew, Google Play, Flathub), no dates. Source: Catalog::releaseStreams() + RELEASE_STREAMS_PLANNED; component core/components/release-streams.inc. TestFlight is not a release stream (owner). Tests: bin/test-product.php.

FeatureFX.7 Link to FX.7Comment on FX.7 Tutorials: search bar on /tutorials, each app's help and the basics

A server-side search (no JavaScript) over the compiled help: every word must match, title and keyword hits rank first, highlighted snippets, result pages noindex (Help::search, help-search.inc). Not added to single topic pages. Checked over HTTP on live pages; no automated test written.

FeatureAPI.1 Link to API.1Comment on API.1 Developer API: keys for licensed accounts, api.getcadcraft.com/v1, categories

The CadCraft API for people's own systems, on its own host. Licensed accounts make keys on /account/developers: scopes per category, one-workspace limit, expiry, allowed addresses, roll and revoke; the key is shown once. Categories: account, licenses, education, library, storage, projects, meta. Rate limits per key, Idempotency-Key on writes, cursor paging, and a log of each key's calls. Thin wrappers over the same services the website uses, so a key can never do more than its account. Test bin/test-a Discord member-api.php --http.

FeatureAPI.2 Link to API.2Comment on API.2 Developer area: /developers overview, guides, generated reference, console, changelog

Public docs at /developers, in the footer, sitemap and llms.txt. The reference is generated from the one endpoint catalogue the server routes by, with curl, PHP, Python and Node samples. The console makes real calls with your own key, run on our server so the browser never calls the API; a live key needs a tick before it changes anything.

FeatureAPI.3 Link to API.3Comment on API.3 API: seats and license counts (Team Cloud Plan + SuperCad Studio)

License counts per workspace; list Team Cloud Plan seats; assign, unassign, or give a seat to an email address (invited with the seat held). SuperCad Studio: list seats and move one under the website's waiting-time rule. Buying or removing seats stays on the website.

FeatureAPI.4 Link to API.4Comment on API.4 API: cloud storage use and project lists

A workspace's space and use plus the account's own folder; projects, one project with members, and its drawings (names, apps, versions and sizes, never the files).

FeatureAPI.5 Link to API.5Comment on API.5 Teachers enroll a class: invite, active on the click (API + /account/students)

An active teacher in the Student Program enrolls a list, on /account/students or POST /v1/education/students (the same service): up to 200 a call, 500 invites a day, 300 students unless staff raise it. Each student gets one email; /education-join needs a real click, then the license is active with no staff review, prices locked as at apply. Invites expire after 30 days. List, edit, resend, CSV; a student can say "This isn't for me" and is not invited again. Taking a student off the list: an unanswered invite ends; someone who joined keeps the versions covered until then and new versions stop, and they can answer a new check if they are still a student. Real mail to a student has not been sent yet (tests only log it).

FeatureAPI.6 Link to API.6Comment on API.6 API: upload library blocks, choose what to add, see where they stand

POST /v1/library/uploads takes a DWG, DXF or library .json (50 MB, 20 an hour, as on the website) and answers with the blocks found; commit the ones to add with a category, license, source and the rights confirmation, or abandon. Public items wait in the same staff review as website uploads; team library items need a seat in force. Also lists the account's items with their versions and review state. Tested over HTTPS with the DXF fixture; a real DWG has not been sent through the API.

FeatureAPI.7 Link to API.7Comment on API.7 API: a sandbox of your own for cck_test_ keys

Sandbox keys run every call against a practice team, class, SuperCad Studio license and projects in a second database: real writes, but no mail is sent, nothing is charged and uploads never reach the real Library. Each developer's sandbox is apart from everyone else's. Helpers read its mail, play a student or the reviewer, and start over; page /account/developers/sandbox.

FeatureAPI.8 Link to API.8Comment on API.8 API: webhooks, so we call your server when something happens

Add an endpoint on /account/developers or with POST /v1/webhooks and hear students join, seats move, SuperCad Studio seats change and library reviews finish. Signed, retried for about 2.7 days, paused with one email when an endpoint keeps failing. Sandbox endpoints hear the sandbox, so you can build against it first. Private addresses and our own server are refused.
