The window built a deformed copy of the model for every results plot,
which drops the geometry surfaces, so after a fluid solve the bracket
vanished and nothing else was drawn.
A fluid step's plot keeps the part as it is and draws the engine's flow
display through it (the same scene as the headless pictures): the
field on a slice, the part coloured by the flow beside it and
streamlines. The legend shows the field with its bands and the cells
of its extremes (Max/Min mark and turn the view to them); the results
panel swaps the deformation rows for the slice's normal and position,
the obstacles' colours, the streamlines and a frame slider, all
running the results.* commands. The status line describes the new
commands.
Part of #193.
After solve.fluid the results view had nothing to draw: a fluid step's
fields are per cell, the view only knew nodal fields, and the deformed
display it built dropped the geometry surfaces, so even the part
vanished.
A fluid step now has its own display (`engine::flow`, on render's
flow display data), shared by the headless pictures and the window:
the part drawn as it is, its faces coloured by the field in the fluid
beside them, the field on a slice through the domain and streamlines
seeded on the inlet face upstream of the obstacles, coloured by speed
when the legend shows velocity. It is first shown with velocity
magnitude on a slice through the middle, normal to the horizontal axis
across the flow.
New commands: results.slice {step, field: velocity|pressure, axis:
x|y|z|none, position, frame}, results.surface {step, show} and
results.streamlines {step, show, count, max_steps, seeds | line,
frame}, which replies with what it traced. results.contour takes
velocity and pressure for fluid steps (a new `pressure` field) with
the usual bands and legend clamp, and results.frame walks a fluid
step's frames. Streamlines leave the coming-soon list. Hostile
parameters are refused, and the counts are capped.
Part of #193.
A fluid step's result is a field per cell of a regular grid, not per
node, so the contour machinery had nothing to draw it with and the
viewport showed nothing after a fluid solve.
Add `render::flow`, CPU display data for such fields with no solver
dependency (render stays at L1): an axis-aligned slice through the
cells as triangles carrying cell-centred values (interpolated between
the two layers either side, outer centres moved to the domain faces,
cells inside obstacles left out), the field sampled at a surface
beside the fluid cells for colouring an obstacle, and streamlines
traced through the trilinear velocity field by the midpoint rule,
seeded on a lattice upstream of the obstacles. Seeds, steps and the
total number of points are capped so hostile counts cost a bounded
time. `contour::banded` fans band pieces into scene triangles for the
callers.
Part of #193.
A new L7 crate: the CPU scheme's collision (TRT with Guo forcing), the
per-link streaming rules (bounce-back with Ladd's term, slip reflection,
open placeholders), the Zou–He boundaries and the momentum exchange per
force group as wgpu compute shaders, stepping the flow fieldcraft_lbm's
Flow prepared, through its Backend trait: populations stay on the device,
a chunk of steps is one submission, and only frames, forces and the
stability check come back. Populations are stored as deviations from
their weights, which keeps single precision honest: the verification
cases (Poiseuille with Λ = 3/16, Couette with wall forces, Taylor–Green,
a sphere's drag, a Zou–He channel) agree with the CPU to 2–5e-6 in
velocity, 1e-6 in density and 5e-5 in force, with those tolerances stated
in the tests. The rules are applied one thread per link rather than in a
per-cell loop, which lavapipe's JIT miscompiles (and which diverges on
real GPUs anyway). Native only for now; the browser registers nothing.
Part of #529.
The improvement objective was the smallest dihedral sine, which misses
needles: every dihedral angle fine while a corner is nearly flat, so
the corpus meshes had scaled Jacobians down to 0.01-0.07. The objective
is now the smaller of the dihedral sine and the scaled Jacobian at the
worst corner (the measure analysts check, Knupp 2001), weighted so a
Jacobian of 0.3 (the skill's limit) counts as a 30 degree dihedral
angle (the schedule's target): the Jacobian decides only near that
limit. The existing edge removal, multi-face removal, smoothing and
insertion then remove the needles.
Skill tet10 min SJ: sphere-on-plate 0.092 -> 0.335, filleted-bracket
0.021 -> 0.318 (both pass, nothing marked). Default-size tet10:
thin-ribs 0.240, shallow-groove 0.321, rounded-box 0.311.
The strong-relaxation test relaxes below 0.45: nothing is left below
0.3. Literature note in docs/meshing/literature.md.

Suppresses the SolidCraft features named (holes filled, fillets and chamfers back to
their sharp edges, bosses removed) and rebuilds the design; a feature that cannot be
suppressed alone is merged into its neighbour for meshing only. Kept in the model,
replayed on open, undoable; geometry.defeature.delete turns them back on.

SolidCraft lists a solid's faces in a different order from run to run
(the rounded box, for one), which reordered the triangle soup and the
face tags with every coordinate the same; welding keeps the first copy
it meets and every later stage visits ids in order, so the tet mesh
changed between runs. CanonicalSoup sorts the triangles by their
coordinates, numbers vertices by first use and face tags by first
appearance, and maps the tags back; mesh.tet.generate and the corpus
use it.
Tests: the washer's tet10 mesh has a fixed fingerprint (identical on
arm64 and x86-64 builds); a reordered, renumbered input gives the same
mesh; heavy: rounded-box and filleted-bracket mesh bit for bit the same
on repeated runs and with 1 and 8 threads.
The bracket oracle cases stay unfrozen: SolidCraft's tessellation
itself differs in the last bits between arm64 and x86-64. The coarse
case moves to 203.6 MPa with the canonical order; its band is 5%.

mesh.size.set adds a size control on faces, bodies, a box or a sphere;
mesh.size.growth sets the growth rate; mesh.size.clear and
mesh.size.list. The tet mesher bakes the controls into its graded field,
the hex meshers, cells and the octree take the graded RegionSize, and
the block projection and mesh plans divide their edges by it.

The thinnest wall (measured to a facing wall) and narrowest patch give the cell size the grid
needs; the requested size refined that deep comes first, a root shrunk so one level fewer is
exact second; beyond the levels or cells allowed meshing fails at once naming the wall, levels and
cells. max_depth is a cap (default 4); rebuilds stay within the planned levels; lattice positions
no longer depend on the lattice depth; the report gives root size, levels, wall, patch and cells
per level before and after closure.

For a body with features the sweep cannot mesh, mesh.plan replies a

A face merge may keep one of its faces' names (Merge::into, model
FaceMerge::into): absorbing a tiny face leaves the neighbour by its own
name, so sets on it still select it. Shape::absorbing_neighbour finds
the face a tiny one shares the longest edges with. geometry.face.absorb
absorbs one face (into a named or the best neighbour) or, from_check,
every small and sliver face the last geometry.check marked; check marks
now carry the small face they found.

egui-wgpu's startup hook and the app's own steps (window, app setup, viewport
pipelines, first frame, running) go into the journal. On Windows,
native_crash.rs (adapted from SolidCraft, the only module allowed unsafe code;
the app crate now denies instead of forbids it) writes the exception code,
faulting module and offset and a minidump. A nightly/on-demand CI job runs the
app's tests on Windows, including a child that faults on purpose.

#445 also closed the window on SIGHUP, which overrides the SIG_IGN that
`nohup fieldcraft &` sets so the app outlives its terminal. A safe API cannot
ask whether a signal was ignored at launch, so SIGHUP keeps its default.
SIGTERM and SIGINT still close the window the normal way.

SIGTERM, SIGINT and SIGHUP ended the process on the spot: no last autosave,
and the crash journal left behind became an unclean_exit report at the next
start. The report on #248's machine ("ended without a clean exit between
commands (last: control ui.capture)") has that exact signature and is
reproduced by kill -TERM after a capture; 500 captures of the solved
crank-mirror (50 app runs), 30 CLI snapshots and 250 MCP headless
screenshots exited cleanly. The first signal now asks the window to close;
a second ends the process with the signal's default action.

The section comes from a set (a 2D mesh or element faces), the mesh already
on the source faces (tagged, or a neighbouring body's boundary lying on
them, whose nodes are shared so the meshes conform), or a fresh quad mesh
of one planar face. Target and side faces project through the tet mesher's
B-rep projection. Replaces the body's mesh like the other meshers, tags the
body's own source, target and side faces, and is on the MCP mesh tool as
hex_extrude.

Deleting, suppressing or editing a partition (or its datum), or cutting a
meshed body, removes the meshes of the bodies that are gone, reported as
replaced, in the same undo step. model.check lists meshes of partition
cells the open design no longer has (a model saved before the cut
changed), and mesh.clear removes them, or the meshes of named bodies.
