Parametric Sensor Mount in OpenSCAD with Claude Code: A Home Assistant 3D Print

The pad fails the first time you move house or the wall is cold and damp, and the sensor ends up behind the radiator. A printed bracket fixes that, but I’d rather not spend an evening in CAD for a plastic box. OpenSCAD is the opposite of CAD.
