Preview, Live Preview, and Motion
FreeCAD is currently the deepest preview integration in this branch.
Preview commands:
# List preview recipes
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview recipes
# Capture a real 4-view bundle
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview capture --recipe quick
# Start poll-mode live preview
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview live start --recipe quick --mode poll --source-poll-ms 500
# Query current live state without rendering
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview live status --recipe quick
# Stop live preview publication
cli-anything-freecad --json -p proj.json preview live stop --recipe quick
Typical quick bundle artifacts:

Live preview persists:
session.json- immutable bundle directories
trajectory.json
preview live status --json is intended for agents and includes a compact
trajectory_summary in addition to _session_dir, current bundle refs, and
_trajectory_path.
Viewer commands:
cli-hub previews inspect /path/to/bundle-or-session
cli-hub previews html /path/to/bundle-or-session -o page.html
cli-hub previews watch /path/to/session --open
cli-hub previews open /path/to/bundle-or-session
Motion commands remain separate from preview and are used for final truthful frame rendering and showcase videos:
