The end-to-end demo met a raw-CDT sliver that the validity gate accepted (exactly positive) and
the solver refused. Now:
- One validity criterion, `fieldcraft_model::admissible_jacobian` (normalized Jacobian above
1e-12), used by the implicit solver (fem `positive_inverse`), the explicit tet4/hex8
kinematics and the mesh gate, which proves it on the whole element (tet4: the solvers' own
Jacobian; curved kinds: a Bernstein floor), so whatever passes the gate passes the solvers.
- CDT rounding repaired by flips on the rounded mesh (Diazzi et al. 2023 §5.1) instead of the
±2-ulp nudge.
- `fieldcraft-mesh::tet`: a mutable tetrahedral complex whose every change is a checked
replacement (positive and admissible tetrahedra, faces matched with opposite orientation) with
an exact undo log; edge removal (Klincsek), multi-face removal, Delaunay insertion with
boundary faces, edge collapse; a curvature- and thickness-graded size field; constrained
Delaunay refinement with encroachment splits; ODT smoothing; the Klingner–Shewchuk schedule;
boundary vertices moved onto the exact B-rep surfaces at the end; tet10 with mid-edge nodes on
the geometry.
- `mesh.tet.generate` gains size, order, quality, quality_target, curvature_angle, grading,
max_passes, max_points and reports the CDT's and the mesh's quality; `solve.probe` takes a set
and reports its largest von Mises stress.
- Oracle cases filleted-bracket-fillet-stress(-coarse): the fillet's peak von Mises stress on
tet10 meshes of 2k and 13.5k elements, 213.3 MPa (a four-level study stays within 1.8%); the
CDT cases keep the raw tetrahedralization.
- Corpus quality columns: all 20 valid parts mesh and pass the gate.

Crates fieldcraft-*, binaries fieldcraft and fieldcraft-cli, the .fieldcraft file (format tag
fieldcraft/1, manifest fieldcraft.json), FIELDCRAFT_* environment variables, the MCP server
name, egui widget ids (fc_*), the app icon document FieldCraft.icon and its generated family,
docs and licences. No compatibility shim: no files of the earlier name exist.

* Renumber the layer table for solver crates: fem at L1, solver at L2, fsi at L3
L0 model -> L1 geometry, mesh, fem, decks, render -> L2 solver (explicit, lbm later)
-> L3 fsi (later) -> L4 doc -> L5 io -> L6 engine -> L7 ui-egui, mcp -> apps.
UI_MIN_LAYER moves to 7, the testkit sits above it.

* modelcraft-fem: element kernels for tet4, tet10, hex8 (full, incompatible modes), hex20 (full, reduced)
Shape functions, Gauss and conical-product quadrature, stiffness, consistent and HRZ-lumped
mass, body forces, consistent pressure loads on faces, integration-point stresses and their
least-squares extrapolation to nodes, isotropic and orthotropic elasticity. The element table is
one row per kind, so wedges, shells and beams are added locally.

* modelcraft-solver: linear static and frequency analysis with an analytic verification suite
Assembly from the resolved model on the node graph, boundary conditions by elimination,
consistent pressure, gravity and body-force loads, nested-dissection ordering, sparse up-looking
Cholesky with a factor-size cap, reactions, integration-point and nodal-averaged stresses, von
Mises; shift-invert block Lanczos with full reorthogonalization for natural modes, participation
and effective mass. ADR 0001 records the own-linear-algebra decision (determinism, wasm).
Verified against closed forms: displacement and traction patch tests for every element, cantilever
tip deflection (Timoshenko) with convergence rates, Lamé cylinder, Kirsch hole (Kt -> 3),
cantilever and free-free beam frequencies with six rigid-body modes.

* Engine: solve.static, solve.frequency and solve.probe; results kept in the session
Results are stored per step, restored on a failed command and cleared when the model changes.
Caps (degrees of freedom, factor entries, Lanczos vectors) may only be lowered; hostile parameters
are tested against a solvable session.

* Simplify the solver: shared face integration, block assembly, cached extrapolation
- model: one face integrator (nodal::face_normal_weights) for tractions and pressures
- fem: mid-side tables from ElementKind::edges, orthotropic via inverse3, symmetric
accumulation without a symmetrize pass, incompatible-mode recovery without K_uu, model's
coordinate check, dead table rows removed
- solver: one pattern search per node pair (block, scalar and diagonal adds), extrapolation built
once per element type, reactions from the prescribed rows only, matrices dropped after
restriction, the free-body shift keyed on the factorization error, step selection in the solver,
Error::Element naming the element
- engine: the solver owns the default step and the shift check; the model comparison runs once
