# Fusion Bridge - Verb Reference

Every verb the Adom Desktop Fusion 360 Bridge exposes, by category, with what it does, its arguments, and an example call. Invoke any verb as `adom-desktop <verb> '<json-args>'` (Adom Desktop proxies the `fusion_*` prefix to the bridge).

## Lifecycle: launch, documents, windows

### `fusion_activate_document`

Switch to an open document tab by name or type

**Args:** `documentType` (optional: Electronics|PCB|FusionDesign|Drawing), `name` (optional substring match)


### `fusion_close`

Close Fusion 360 gracefully


### `fusion_close_all_documents`

Close all open documents

**Args:** `saveChanges` (optional bool (default: false))


### `fusion_close_document`

Close a document without save dialog (avoids modal blocking)

**Args:** `name` (optional (default: active)), `save` (optional bool (default: false))


### `fusion_close_window`

Close a specific Fusion dialog window by sending WM_CLOSE (equivalent to clicking its X button). Works on dialogs that Escape doesn't close - e.g. 'Recovered Documents'.

**Args:** `hwnd` (required - HWND from fusion_window_info or fusion_dismiss_blocking_dialogs remaining[])


### `fusion_dismiss_blocking_dialogs`

First-class blocking-dialog killer. Enumerates all Fusion Qt windows, matches them against a known list of blocking/picker patterns ('What do you want to design?', error toasts, recovery prompts, etc.), and sends Escape to each offending HWND until the add-in main thread reports responsive. Whenever any fusion_* command returns errorCode 'fusion_addin_not_responding', call this FIRST before retrying.

**Args:** `extraPatterns` (optional array of case-insensitive title substrings to also treat as blocking), `maxAttempts` (optional int (default 5) - retry loop cap)


### `fusion_document_info`

List all open document tabs with cloud metadata for active doc


### `fusion_get_app_state`

Query open documents, active workspace, Electronics status


### `fusion_start`

First-class Fusion 360 startup. Discovers Fusion360.exe via glob (so version-indirected webdeploy hashes don't matter), verifies it exists BEFORE spawning (no 'Windows cannot find' GUI dialogs), launches it if not already running, waits for the AdomBridge add-in to come online, and auto-dismisses any blocking dialogs via fusion_dismiss_blocking_dialogs. Returns when Fusion is fully ready.

**Args:** `dismissBlockingDialogs` (optional bool (default true) - auto-clear the 'What do you want to design?' picker, error ), `timeoutSeconds` (optional int (default 120) - total wait for add-in + dialog dismissal)

```
adom-desktop fusion_start '{}'
-> { "addinReady": true, "status": "ok" }
```

## Cloud search & files (APS)

### `aps_auth`

Interactive Autodesk sign-in (opens the system browser, 3-legged PKCE OAuth). One-time per device; tokens cached in ~/.adom/aps_tokens.json and auto-refreshed. Requires aps_client_id to be configured.


### `aps_hubs`

List the Autodesk hubs (teams) the signed-in account can see.


### `aps_projects`

List projects in a hub (default: first hub).

**Args:** `hubId` (optional - default first hub (aps_hubs lists ids))


### `aps_search`

FAST indexed cloud-file search via Autodesk Platform Services (APS) Data Management API. ~Instant server-side index - NOT folder-walking. Works even when Fusion is CLOSED. Prefer this over fusion_search_cloud_files whenever APS is configured.

**Args:** `hubId` (optional - exact APS hub id (default: first hub); aps_hubs lists ids), `projectId` (optional - exact APS project id (overrides projectName); aps_projects lists ids), `projectName` (optional - substring match against your project names (default: search all projects, up to), `query` (required case-insensitive substring of the file's displayName)


### `aps_status`

Is native APS cloud search available on this box? Non-prompting discovery check - call this FIRST to decide between aps_search (fast) and fusion_search_cloud_files (slow fallback).


### `fusion_check_recovery`

Check if a cloud file has crash recovery data

**Args:** `fileName` (required), `folderPath` (optional), `projectName` (optional)


### `fusion_create_cloud_folder`

Create folder (idempotent)

**Args:** `folderName` (required), `parentPath` (optional), `projectName` (optional)

Export active document to local file (step/stl/f3d/iges/sat/smt)

**Args:** `format` (optional (default: step)), `outputPath` (required)


### `fusion_list_cloud_files`

List files and subfolders in a cloud project/folder

**Args:** `folderPath` (optional), `projectName` (optional)


### `fusion_list_cloud_projects`

List all cloud projects in user's hub


### `fusion_open_cloud_file`

Open a cloud file by name. STOPS if recovery exists - you must specify recovery='open' or recovery='discard'

**Args:** `fileName` (required), `folderPath` (optional), `projectName` (optional), `recovery` (optional: open|discard)


### `fusion_save_to_cloud`

Save active document to Fusion cloud

**Args:** `description` (optional), `folderPath` (optional), `name` (required), `projectName` (optional)


### `fusion_search_cloud_files`

Search a cloud project / subfolder by file-name substring. Returns matches + a detailed scope analysis. Use this for targeted lookups; for exhaustive whole-cloud walks prefer fusion_walk_cloud_tree.

**Args:** `folderPath` (optional starting subfolder (default: project root). NARROW THE SCOPE HERE - naming the ri), `folderTimeout` (optional int seconds per-folder cloud-API timeout (default 30)), `maxDepth` (optional int (default 2, no upper cap)), `maxFolders` (optional int (default 10, no upper cap). For exhaustive 100+ folder searches consider walk), `maxResults` (optional int (default 20, no upper cap)), `projectName` (optional (defaults to active project)), `query` (required case-insensitive substring of the file name), `recursive` (optional bool (default false). false = root folder only (fast); true = descend into subfol), `searchTimeout` (optional int seconds overall wall-clock timeout (default 120). If you set this >180, also )


### `fusion_walk_cloud_tree`

Walk a cloud folder tree iteratively (BFS) and return a flat list of folders + files with full paths.

**Args:** `extensions` (optional list of extensions to include, e.g. ["f3d","fprj"]), `folderPath` (optional starting folder (defaults to root)), `includeFiles` (optional bool (default true) - set false for folder-only tree), `maxDepth` (optional int (default 10)), `maxFolders` (optional int (default 500, truncates if exceeded)), `nameContains` (optional case-insensitive substring filter on file names), `projectName` (optional (defaults to active))
