The full story
A small Fusion 360 add-on that exports the active project as a STEP file and opens it in whichever slicer handles STEP files, such as Bambu Studio, adding it to the current plate. The maker says the first script took five minutes to build with Claude.
Scripts cannot be run from a shortcut, so it had to become an add-on. Adding a shortcut to the add-on itself did not work, so the maker used the separate AnyShortcut plugin instead.
