A correction, I saw a file uploaded from Cura to a snapmaker printer and
thought that it was natively supported.  It requires a plugin:

I'm not aware of a Snapmaker Plugin for PrusaSlicer - OpenBSD's only slicer.
My Sovol SV06 Ace runs octoprint and I was able to connect, via
Octoprint, to it and use the camera in OpenBSD.  Octoprint appears to be
an HTML/Web interface that I assume if the reason for the webkitgtk
dependency in PrusaSlicer.

Snapmaker is making a foray into OrcaSlicer:
