Games & graphics · C++

+431stars on 2026-10-13 · UTC

A standalone C++ and Python library for NURBS-based boundary representation (BRep) solid modeling, integrated with OpenUSD. Intended for working with CAD geometry in Omniverse scenes.

Useful for
  • Build the library from source via repo.sh to integrate into a C++ or Python project
  • Run the smlib_gui.py Python GUI to inspect and debug BRep geometry
  • Heal broken BRep data in a USD scene by calling usd_brep.usd.heal_file
Before using

Alishahryar1/free-claude-code

AI agents · Python

+749stars on 2026-10-13 · UTC

A local proxy and Admin UI that connects 54 model providers (including free tiers) to 10 coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Cline and Aider. Lets you run agents with any model from terminal, IDE, browser or messenger.

Useful for
  • Run Claude Code via fcc-claude with a free NVIDIA NIM model instead of a paid API
  • Configure a Fallback Models list so the agent keeps working when a provider fails
  • Open a Codex session in the browser and switch providers within one session
