So not a 100% match but it checks several of your items. If you are considering something as remote as openSCAD, I think you should give a try to FreeCAD and look at a few tutorials (its workflow is not the most intuitive thing)

- ur-whale 5y ago> it allows to create constraints-based designs I've never seen an architect using a constraints-type CAD design workflow. I always thought constraint-based design is typical mechanical engineering thinking. Do architects work with constraints as well?

Take a look on PARAM-O[0], the visual scripting solution for Archicad powered by VisualScriptEngine.[1] Also, here is VisualScriptCAD[2], based on VisualScriptEngine.
