The first run asks whether to share anonymous usage (only when the host
says this run may), the answer and a random install id are kept in the
preferences, and Help › Settings… changes it. Commands are counted by
where they came from (ui, palette, script; mcp when the MCP server says
so), and cancelled forms and clicks on commands that cannot run yet are
recorded. The preferences go through a PrefsStore (a file, or the
browser's storage). Control channel: ui.settings, ui.prompt answers.

fieldcraft_engine::usage holds the events docs/privacy.md lists, typed so
that only registry names (command ids, sample names, requirements) and
durations can go in them, a bounded queue that records nothing until the
host enables it, and the PostHog batch body. Session::execute counts each
top-level command of a session with an origin (ui, palette, script, mcp):
its id, kind, duration and error class, and the funnel's milestones and
opened samples. Nothing here touches the network.

A datum plane is drawn as the model's extent within it (where it cuts the
model's box, in the plane's axes) plus a 5 % margin, a datum axis along the
model's extent plus the margin, instead of squares 1.2 diagonals wide.
Fit, Home, the standard views and headless pictures frame the model

selected in the browser is drawn highlighted and on top, even when hidden.

The desktop app installs the crash reporter and a log file at start
(both in a temporary folder in --control and CI runs, #266), journals
the window's commands (background jobs included) and every control
request's method, and ends the journal on a clean exit. A start after a
crash asks: "FieldCraft closed unexpectedly", Report It… or Not Now.
Help › Report a Bug (also Tools › Help and ui.start
diagnostics.bug_report) shows exactly what the GitHub bug form will be
filled with: the version, the OS, the last error, and for a crash where
it happened. Share my session adds the replayable commands, Include the
model file the model. Open GitHub Issue opens the form in the browser
through the system's opener; files to attach are saved to
bug-reports/<time>/ and a long session goes on the clipboard. Nothing is
sent without that click and the user's submit on GitHub.
The control channel answers the new prompts (crashed: report, close;
report_bug: set, close) and ui.inspect shows the draft; it never opens
the browser.

crash: a panic hook and a locked per-run command journal (adapted from
SolidCraft's crash reports). A panic in a command becomes a report with
the model from before it and the command; one outside commands, or an
unclean exit found at the next start (abort, segfault, a crash in a
graphics driver, a kill: what #248 needs), a report with the model the
journal starts from (autosave, file or a copy) and the commands since,
the last control request and the dead run's log lines. Reports are
bounded, deduplicated by signature and replayable (crash::replay, with
writes confined to a scratch folder). The crash folder follows the
automation temp area in --control and CI runs.
logfile: a small size-rotated file logger behind the log facade.
bug_report: GitHub bug-form drafts. Version, OS and what happened by

crank-arm (and crank-mirror, kept as the same model under the name of
its mirror workflow) now cut the crank on its symmetry plane and the
half into seven cells: across the arm at x = 30, 60, 110 and 148, and on
two diagonals radial to the pocket's corner fillets. Every cell's
cross-section maps (four-sided blocks, the half O-grids round the bores,
triangle primitives at the pocket's corners); exact edge seeds give each
cut the same divisions on both sides, so mesh.cells merges all six cuts
and mesh.mirror reflects the half: 7 710 hex20, scaled Jacobian min 0.37
(was 0.17, and 0.009 for the swept mirrored half), edge ratio at most
7.0. Root σxx ±62.43 MPa against M/Z 62.6 MPa, the spindle carries the
1500 N. The test asserts the quality floor. Gallery images regenerated.

A cross-section region with three corners (a fillet's quarter disk, a
pocket corner cut off by a partition) was left to the free all-quad
mesher. It now gets midpoint subdivision's triangle primitive (Tam and
Armstrong 1991; Li, Armstrong, McKeag 1997): lines from a centre to a
node on each side split it into three mapped blocks, the interior then
smoothed and every quadrilateral checked (a fold falls back to free).
Interval assignment gains dominance constraints (a side shorter than
the other two together) so the split always exists.

Boundary condition, load and interaction symbols are wireframes (thin lines,
no shaded cones), so they never hide the mesh or a contour plot:
- a crossed wire triangle per constrained translation, tip on the node,
coming from outside the part where the set's faces say which side that is;
a held rotation adds a smaller triangle behind it (the double mark); fixed
shows all three axes, a symmetry plane only its normal;
- forces as open-headed arrows ending on the node, as long as four support
units at one place and 2.5 over a set, so loads and supports stay in
proportion (#78); moments as an axis line and a right-handed curved arrow
(#79); contact and tie surfaces as small squares on their faces;
- a constant size on screen at any zoom (#80): the symbol unit is the size
setting (View > Symbol size, `ui.set {symbol_size}`, 14 pt by default)
times the model length a pixel spans, rounded to a quarter of a doubling;
- spread evenly on a grid a few symbol units across, so their density follows
the screen, never more than 400 per definition;
- a layer of their own on the desktop (GPU and CPU): zooming rebuilds and
uploads the symbols only, never the mesh's scene; framing leaves them out;
- colour per kind from the theme's tokens (a new contact colour), and the
definition selected in the browser drawn in the selection colour, wider;
- depth-tested against the model with the line bias that keeps them on their
own surface; a load at a reference point or a single node and a reference
point's cross are drawn over the part (#78).
Headless pictures (MCP screenshot, `ui.render`) frame the camera first and
draw the symbols at the default size for it.

A scene's `on_top` lines are drawn after every depth-tested layer, over the
model, so a concentrated load at a point inside the part can be seen from any
side (#78). `render_layers` takes a list of overlays (the setup's symbols and
the selection highlight become separate layers), and draws every layer's
labels. `Camera::length_per_pixel` is the model length a pixel spans at the
target: the scale symbols of a fixed screen size are drawn at.

An orbit turns about the model point under the press (the pick ray's
first hit on the plot, the mesh or the design), or the centre of what is
drawn when it starts on empty space, keeps that point still on screen and
marks it while orbiting. The wheel and a pinch zoom toward the point
under the cursor; the wheel's delta is read as it arrives, so a notch
zooms in full in orthographic and perspective views alike (#273).
Mouse presets and reverse zoom come from SolidCraft (prefs.rs NavPreset,
NAV_PRESETS; MIT OR Apache-2.0): FieldCraft's own (left drag per the
navigation bar) stays the default, Ctrl + left drag from empty space
orbits in every preset. They are chosen in the display menu, settable
with ui.set and kept in prefs.json beside recent.json (the browser build
keeps them for the page's run); an older prefs.json still loads.

The distance and the target follow from the eight corners' exact
projections, for orthographic and perspective cameras and any direction of
view, so a long beam seen side on fills the width instead of a sphere
around it the height (#147). The free part is given as fractions of the

Camera::fit is fit_in over the whole of a square view, and the headless

Zoomed in on the hex20 crank arm, the element edges and the shaded faces
did not meet (#260). The mesh is conforming; the display drew each hex20
face and edge as straight chords between corners while the mid-side
nodes lie on the curved surface (up to 0.44 mm off the chord at 3 mm),
and drew the geometry's face boundaries from the design tessellation,
off both.
Now a quadratic face is cut into triangles whose vertices are its
corners and mid-side nodes, each edge is drawn as its two halves, and
over the mesh the geometry's edges (and a hovered design edge) are drawn
as the element edges on geometry edges (`DisplayEdge::feature`), so
faces, edges, feature lines and the highlight share their vertices.

`quality::conformity` checks a solid mesh for cracks: the free faces must
close up (every corner edge on exactly two), no two distinct nodes may

7274 hex20 is conforming (#260: the disjoint lines are a display issue).
