Agent Skills: Enclosure Designer

Guides design and generation of 3D-printable enclosures for Arduino/ESP32/RP2040 projects. Use when user needs a case, box, housing, or enclosure for their electronics project. Provides parametric design guidance, OpenSCAD templates, STL generation tips, and print settings.

Skill Metadata

Name
enclosure-designer
Description
Use when users need a 3D-printable enclosure for an Arduino, ESP32, or RP2040 project and need help with measurements, cutouts, print settings, or environmental protection.

Enclosure Designer

Use this skill to design practical enclosures without loading a full mechanical guide up front.

Resources

  • assets/basic-template.scad - starting OpenSCAD template
  • scripts/generate_enclosure.py - enclosure generator script
  • references/design-workflow.md - measurement, parameter, and generator workflow
  • references/dimensions.md - common board and module dimensions
  • references/print-and-protection.md - wall thickness, print settings, ventilation, and waterproofing

When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks for:

  • an enclosure, case, box, or housing
  • mounting holes or cutout placement
  • OpenSCAD-based enclosure generation
  • board fit checks for Arduino, ESP32, or Pico-class boards
  • print-material or weather-resistance guidance

Workflow

  1. Gather the minimum physical inputs:
    • board dimensions
    • tallest component
    • connector locations
    • mounting method
    • environmental constraints
  2. Open references/design-workflow.md for the parameterization flow.
  3. Open references/dimensions.md if the user does not already have exact measurements.
  4. Open references/print-and-protection.md for material, wall, ventilation, or moisture guidance.
  5. Use assets/basic-template.scad or scripts/generate_enclosure.py when the user needs a concrete starting model.

Core Rules

  • Treat user measurements as authoritative over reference dimensions.
  • Add clearance deliberately for connectors, wiring, and print tolerance.
  • Separate fit problems from printability problems.
  • Do not promise waterproofing from geometry alone.

Verification

  • The board and connectors fit with explicit clearance.
  • Mounting points and cable exits are reachable.
  • The selected material and wall thickness match the use environment.
  • Print orientation and support strategy are named before finalizing the design.

Integration

  • Pair with battery-selector or power-budget-calculator if battery size drives the enclosure volume.
  • Pair with readme-generator when the enclosure should be documented for a project repo.
