Parts manufactured with Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) often require Design for Additive Manufacturing (DFAM) modifications to ensure printability, structural integrity, and reduced post-processing. Current slicers identify defects such as steep overhangs but are unable to modify the underlying geometry. This work presents AgentsCAD, a multi-agent system that bridges raw boundary-representation (B-Rep) geometry and Large Language Model (LLM) reasoning to automate targeted DFM. The workflow begins by parsing a STEP file. The agentic system detects overhangs above a 45°threshold, constructs a face-adjacency topology graph, and optionally injects semantic feature labels from a GraphSAGE model trained on MFCAD++ (59,665 parts), before dispatching a Claude Sonnet design-reasoning agent that recommends reorientations, fillets, chamfers, and similar modifications. A GPT-4o vision-language verifier inspects rendered views to confirm geometric integrity. Outputs include a modified STEP file and a human-readable report. A test case on a birdhouse model demonstrates that the system correctly diagnoses overhangs, selects appropriate defect mitigation strategies, and proposes physically valid corrections, partially solving the geometry-to-language translation problem central to LLM-driven CAD modification.
