Hi Nicholas,
The ChimeraX OBJ reader is all in Python with source code included in the distribution.
Windows chimerax/bin/lib/site-packages/chimerax/wavefront_obj
Linux chimerax/lib/python3.6/site-packages/chimerax/wavefront_obj
Mac ChimeraX.app/Contents/lib/python3.6/site-packages/chimerax/wavefront_obj
The ChimeraX git repository is here
https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/trac/ChimeraX/browser https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/trac/ChimeraX/browser
I don’t think the repository can be cloned due to access restrictions, but here is some info about that and you can try and see if it works.

Hi,
I took ChimeraX for a spin and when I save out to OBJ, the geometries looks connected up wrongly.
I was hoping I can take a look at the source code to attempt to fix it myself.
I see git being mentioned in the documentation. Is there a git repo I can clone and contribute to?
If I need to sign any documents before contributing, let me know :-)
I have other geometry format I'd like to write out to and also I am hoping to write out quads rather than triangles for use with OpenSubdiv in rendering software like RenderMan, Arnold, Mantra etc.
Cheers
