Open-source Wright reverse-engineers Tesla's SteveCAD robot prototype from public footage
burhop · x · 2026-10-21
Developer burhop open-sourced Wright (MIT, alpha) — an AI-powered "digital engineer, designer, and mechanical analyst" — and used it to reverse-engineer 10X Engineering's SteveCAD, a Tesla robot prototype, from public footage.
- The demo illustrates why Musk avoids sharing early robot prototype photos: exposed designs can be AI-assisted and replicated
- The GitHub repo ships a full engineering structure: agent skills, benchmarks, sandboxes
- The author invites others to reverse-engineer Wright itself
