Rhino Geometry
Rook covers the whole Rhino geometry engine — more than 250 tools, from a single point to a lofted SubD to a block instance. You don’t reach for them by name; you describe the result and Rook routes to the right one.
“Loft these curves into a SubD and fillet the seams.”

| I/O | DWG · DXF · OBJ · STL · 3DM · STEP · IGES · Materials · Textures |
How it routes
Section titled “How it routes”Most operations have a dedicated, typed endpoint that validates inputs and returns a structured result — so when you ask for a box or a boolean, Rook runs the safe path rather than scripting blindly. You get the breadth of Rhino without learning the command palette.
