A lot of semiconductor EDA / CAD tools use Tcl as the built in scripting language. Our CAD flows are thousands of lines of Tcl code that are both wrappers around the tools and scripts for the tools to execute that set options and run various commands generate reports

OpenCASCADE, the C++ CAD library used by FreeCAD and others, has official bindings available in Tcl. (Bindings, for example, in Python, are available from 3rd parties.)
