AutoCAD AI features
AutoCAD AI features from Bonfire Terminal add on-device intelligence to your CAD design work. Drawing on your Autodesk context, agents help summarize projects, organize layers, and prep revision logs while proprietary drawings stay local on your machine.
What Bonfire can do in AutoCAD
Real actions from the AutoCAD API that a Bonfire agent can run on your behalf, on-device.

AutoCAD — questions
Can Bonfire automate AutoCAD?
Yes. Bonfire runs on your machine, holds your AutoCAD credentials locally, and a connected model (Claude, GPT, Gemini or Grok) drives the AutoCAD API to run the actions you ask for in chat.
Does my AutoCAD data go to the cloud?
Bonfire runs on your desktop and keeps your keys local — it isn't a SaaS holding your data. Only the specific request you approve is sent to your chosen AI model.
Which AI models can I use?
Any connected model — Claude, GPT, Gemini or Grok. A fully offline Llama model runs locally for private reasoning but can't reach live APIs.
