Mechanical Tools Reducer CAD Assistant

Problem it solves

Reducer drawing design often depends on web forms, manual parameter entry, backend calculation, and manual review. Parameters in the JXT mechanical parts platform have calculation dependencies, and edits must stay consistent with the same Excel file. This skill turns that website workflow into a conversational API workflow: users provide parameters step by step, while the assistant calls calculation, preserves filename, displays results, and tracks the production order.

How it works

The skill uses https://jixietools.com/api/v1 and follows the reducer category ID 8 flow:
- List products: fetch reducer options first, then let the user choose by number.
- Collect parameters: ask for input_params one by one; for dropdown fields, precompute to retrieve dropdowns.
- Incremental calculation: first POST all parameters and save the returned filename; later submit only changed parameters to avoid overwriting unrelated cells.
- Review results: show input, debug, coefficient, and output parameters in tables, then let the user confirm or revise.
- Create and poll the order: use guest_code to query status every 5 seconds, displaying checklist and output_files.

Boundary: it supports login-free calculation and order tracking on the JXT platform, but does not replace local CAD modeling, assembly verification, or standard compliance checks. Parameters must come from the platform definition, and production usability should still rely on platform output files and human review.
