Find existing PartCAD parts and assemblies in the catalog that match a natural-language query, using the PartCAD CLI (`pc search`), then present the matches and optionally inspect or render a chosen one. Use for /pc:search or when the user asks to search, find, look up, or discover a part or assembly.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# pc:search Find existing PartCAD **parts and assemblies** that match a query, using PartCAD's own `pc search`. The text after the command (`$ARGUMENTS`) is what to look for — a natural-language description or a set of keywords. Present the matches and, when the user points at one, act on it (inspect or render). This searches the existing catalog; it does **not** create anything — to generate a new object, use `/pc:gen` instead. ## 1. Understand the request - `$ARGUMENTS` is the query. `pc search` matches a **single keyword** as a case-insensitive substring against each object's name, its configured fields (`desc`, `type`, `path`, …), and the contents of its source file. It does not parse natural language and does not rank by relevance. - So distill the query into a few concrete terms — e.g. "M3 hex standoff" → `standoff`, `hex`, `m3` — search each, then union the results yourself. - Decide the scope. The default is the local/root package (`//`); the public PartCAD registry and other imported packages are only reached by naming the package with a `...` suffix, which means that package and every package below it. ## 2. Make sure PartCAD is available …

How to install
mdr add partcad/partcad/search@sha256:c896c6e2e95ba6d4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.9f2d5f9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
