StatiCAD with AI: Overview
The built-in assistant, the Claude Code, ChatGPT Codex and Google Antigravity agents, and computer use: what each one is for, what can be used with each StatiCAD edition, costs, security and where to start.
Built-in AI Assistant (with an API Key)
The AI Assistant (AI Console) in StatiCAD Ultimate and Hybrid: getting a Claude, OpenAI or Gemini API key, entering it in the program, choosing the service and model, first requests, files and voice, costs, limitations and troubleshooting.
StatiCAD with Claude Code
Claude subscription, installing the Claude desktop app and Git for Windows, opening StatiCAD with the terminal channel (--term), the first prompt, permissions, using it together with computer use, and troubleshooting; step by step.
StatiCAD with ChatGPT (Codex) and Google (Antigravity)
Operating StatiCAD with OpenAI Codex (with a ChatGPT account) or Google Antigravity instead of Claude Code: account and plan, installation, permission mode, first prompt, computer use and comparison.
Computer Use: Letting the AI Use the Screen
The AI agent looks at screenshots and uses the mouse and keyboard: when it is needed, how to turn it on in Claude and Codex, prompts for StatiCAD editions without a terminal, security and troubleshooting.
Ready-to-Use Prompt (Command) Examples
Prompts you can copy to have the AI do StatiCAD work: starting a session, a new project (masonry, reinforced concrete, timber), an existing project, a project from a DXF plan, results, reports and drawings, the built-in assistant and safety sentences.
Structural Project from an Architectural DXF Plan
An AI agent reads and interprets an architectural DXF plan and produces the structural model, calculation report and structural drawings in StatiCAD: preparing the DXF (cleanup, PURGE), coordinates, a four-stage workflow and prompts.
