Zoo Design Studio includes AI-assisted workflows for geometry creation, design analysis, and iterative refinement.
Most in-app ML and AI workflows route through Zookeeper, Zoo Design Studio's conversational CAD agent. Start there for the main user workflow around AI-assisted geometry creation, modification, and design reasoning.
Queue and Steer
AI Chat is not limited to one prompt at a time. While Zookeeper is reasoning, creating geometry, or editing the model, you can keep writing follow-up prompts instead of waiting for the current action to finish.
Queue follow-up prompts while Zookeeper works, then steer the active task when direction changes
Queue
Queue adds a follow-up prompt to the list of tasks Zookeeper should handle next. Use it when you already know the next step, such as changing a dimension, applying a color, adding another feature, or asking for a check after the current edit finishes.
Queueing keeps the modeling flow moving. CAD tasks are often incremental, and each step depends on the model state produced by the previous step. A queue lets you capture those next instructions while they are still fresh.
Steer
Steer promotes a queued prompt into guidance for the work already in progress. Use it when the current task is still running and you want to correct, narrow, or redirect it without starting the conversation over.
Steering matters because AI-assisted CAD can take several steps: reading the model, planning an edit, changing KCL, validating geometry, and reporting back. If your intent changes mid-run, steer lets you add that context while Zookeeper is still working.
