Large language models struggle to generate accurate OpenSCAD code for 3D architectural models due to issues with spatial reasoning, coordinate frame confusion, and understanding constructive solid geometry operations. The author found that LLMs often produce code that parses and renders but contains subtle geometric errors. A more effective approach involves having the LLM generate a structured intermediate representation, such as JSON, which is then translated into OpenSCAD code by a deterministic script, simplifying the LLM's task to a 2D spatial problem.
