- solvecraft-cli fuzz / fuzz-one: seeded random modelling sessions (boxes, extruded profiles with arcs, revolves; joins and cuts of boxes, cylinders and spheres, fillets, chamfers, shells, holes, patterns) on a grid that makes coincident faces and tangencies common, every step checked (command ok, every body a sound solid via the new Body::validity, volume moving the right way), plus the boolean volume identity on random primitives; one process per seed with a time limit; failures minimised to scripts
- shell/offset: corners where a curved face meets another at an angle are refined onto the moved surfaces (Newton); edges that are neither lines nor arcs are rebuilt through their moved points; one shell per piece; faces that would cross say so (not supported yet) instead of leaving a cavity inside out; flat revolved faces count as planes; the unhealed body is tried when the healed one fails
- cylinders start their seams at an odd angle (grid-aligned seams broke booleans along them)
- partial revolves of profiles touching the axis build no zero-area face on the axis
- booleans on bodies in several pieces retry a piece at a time
- regression tests for each, and a fixed set of seeds in cargo test

blend_corner.rs rebuilds the planar faces at the ends of the filleted edges (three planar faces and three straight edges at each such vertex) and keeps the rest. One round at a vertex ends in the third face's exact section of its cylinder; two rounds with the third edge sharp trim each other (rolling ball: the crease from where their contact lines cross to the third edge for equal radii, else to the smaller round's contact line on the face that ends the larger one, which gets the exact section between); three rounds meet a sphere for equal radii, else a rational degree-4 patch through plane sections of the cylinders, the sections turned so that the cylinders' curvatures agree where two meet on a face and the patch fitted tangent to all three (within 0.01 degrees) and to the face at its closed corner.
kernel::fillet falls back to it when the local blends refuse: an edge that ends on an earlier round (any radius) takes the round off (delete_faces) and blends both edges together, so r3 next to r2 and a third edge into a mitred pair work. delete_faces: a gap stretch along several deleted faces keeps the corners between them (two rounds meeting in a mitre come off back to the sharp corner). splitface::fit is shared for the crease.
Tests: volumes against the strips-minus-overlap reference (exact strips, overlap integrated; checked against an independent 1D integral), the sphere-octant formula for three equal rounds, tangency along the patch, closed meshes, refusals without panics.

New kernel file blend_variable.rs. The hooks into blend.rs are visibility
only: plane_normal, vtx, rebuild_face and unsupported are now pub(crate).
- fillet_variable(body, edge, start, r0, r1) works on the same edge
configuration as the constant fillet (straight edge, planar faces, end
faces square to it). The radius runs linearly from the end nearest
`start`, and every section square to the edge is a circular arc. The
blend is an exact degree (2, 1) rational B-spline: arc control points
move linearly.
- fillet_chord(body, edges, chord): the radius per edge comes from its
face angle (chord = 2 r cos(phi/2)).
Fillet feature: style constant | chord | variable {radius2, start};
FusionFilletEdgesCommand takes type, radius2 and start.
Tests:
- Variable 2 -> 5 on a box edge removes (1 - pi/4) L (r0^2 + r0 r1 + r1^2)/3.
Starting from the other end gives the same solid; equal radii give the
constant fillet; too large is refused.
- Chord 4 on a right angle equals radius 4/sqrt(2).
- Engine: both types by command.

For solvecraft-params' Split Face feature:
- Sketch tools are chains of Seg2. A single line splits by its plane and a
single arc by its cylinder, exactly (a circular edge on a planar face);
longer chains and splines follow the curve.
- split_faces_with_map gives the source face of each face of the result.
- A listed face the tool misses is an error naming it (split_any keeps
the lenient form for Trim).

Kernel extend(body, edges, distance) moves the picked straight edges of a
planar surface outward in its plane, with neighbours meeting them. Doc
feature SurfaceExtend, engine FusionExtendCommand. Tests: 10x10 extended
by 5 past one edge gives 150, past two gives 225; the engine patch, trim,
extend and thicken gives 240.

Kernel (surfaces):
- Bodies with an open shell are surface bodies (Body::is_surface).
- patch_region: a planar patch of a sketch region. patch_edges: a planar
patch filling a closed loop of a body's edges.
- copy_faces: faces copied out as a surface.
- stitch: sew surfaces along coinciding edges, turning faces to agree; the
result is a solid when it closes.
- trim: cut a surface by a plane or face and keep one side.
- thicken: offset planar and circular-cylindrical faces along their
normals (one side or symmetric) into a solid. Plane copies slide;
cylinder copies scale about the axis, exact for NURBS circles. Free
edges get ruled walls. Faces meeting at a sharp edge are refused.
Doc features Patch, Stitch, Thicken (with operations) and SurfaceTrim;
engine commands FusionSurfacePatchCommand, FusionSurfaceStitchCommand,
FusionSurfaceThickenCommand and FusionSurfaceTrimCommand.
Tests (volumes):
- A 10x10 patch thickened by 2 gives 200, also symmetric.
- Half a cylinder side thickened outward gives half a ring; both halves
inward give the full ring.
- Six faces of a box stitched back give 6000; an open box with its top
patched from the edges, stitched, gives 6000.
- Trim keeps 30 or 70 of 100.
- Engine: patch, trim, thicken gives 140.

split_body(body, tool) divides every face where the tool meets it and
closes each side with the piece of the tool surface inside the body.
- Patches have outer loops and holes.
- Bands go round a cylinder or another surface of revolution.
- Each side falls apart into its connected parts.
- A body the tool misses comes back whole.
Faces that are B-spline sheets but really planes or circular cylinders
(extruded faces) split as the whole plane or cylinder: the tool is
extended, and the field is exact and cheap.
Tests (volumes): a box split by a plane (2400/3600); a holed plate split
through its hole into two equal halves; a box split by a cylinder's side
into the core (pi*16*30) and the rest; a plane that misses.

split_faces(body, faces, tool) divides the chosen faces where the tool
meets them and leaves the solid unchanged. It handles:
- lines across a face;
- closed lines inside a face (a disc inside a ring);
- lines that run into a hole (the face is divided around it).
Edges the line ends on are cut in every face that uses them. The tool's
zero set is traced on a finely divided triangulation of the face, each
point is placed exactly on the surface by bisection in its parameters,
the ends are placed exactly on the boundary edges, and a cubic is fitted
through the points (a line when they are straight).
Tests: a box top split by a plane (areas 80/120, later booleans still
work); a cylinder side split by a sketch line; a cylinder top split in
ring and disc by a smaller cylinder's face; a plate top split through
its hole into two equal halves; a tool that misses is an error. Volume
and area are unchanged in every case.

- IGES import (kernel iges_in, from the published specification). The file
is restated as STEP and read by the STEP reader, so an IGES file becomes
the same Import base feature.
- Manifold solid B-reps (186/514/510/508/504/502).
- Trimmed (144), bounded (143) and bare B-spline surfaces, sewn into a
solid by shared edges, with face orientation made consistent.
- Curves: lines, arcs, ellipses, composite and rational B-spline curves.
- Surfaces: planes, analytic surfaces 190-198, B-spline surfaces,
surfaces of revolution and tabulated cylinders.
- Transformations, units, colours, names (406 form 15 or labels).
Open, insert and drop .igs/.iges like STEP.
- IGES export (kernel iges_out): each body as a manifold solid B-rep on the
surfaces a STEP export uses, with name properties and colours.
ExportCommand to .igs.
- OBJ import as mesh bodies: objects/groups, polygons fanned, negative
indices, bad lines reported.
- STL: binary files whose header starts with "solid" and those with a zero
triangle count read as binary; non-finite vertices dropped; facet
normals ignored; ASCII with non-UTF-8 names. Mesh bodies get consistent
winding (stray inverted facets turned over).
- Tests: primitives and features round-trip through IGES (volume, area,
name, colour). Six trimmed patches sew into a closed box. Hostile IGES,
OBJ and STL inputs never panic. STL quirks. The engine exports a design
to IGES and opens it again. All 76 oracle parts round-trip through IGES
with matching volume (local check).

- Bodies carry a Paint for export (opacity, per-face colours), set by
Document::painted from the appearance model. The paint comes from a
face appearance, a body/component appearance's opacity or a material
look (Glass), and falls back to the paint the body was imported with.
- STEP: faces with colours of their own get a STYLED_ITEM on their
ADVANCED_FACE. See-through looks add SURFACE_STYLE_TRANSPARENT.
Differently coloured pieces are not merged into one face.
- STEP import reads face styles and transparency. The reader tracks the
file face of each kernel face (bands split in two keep it), so imported
face colours land on the right faces; the design shows them through
face_colors.
- 3MF: per-triangle colours (pid/p1 into the base materials, carried
through welding) and the object's alpha (#RRGGBBAA).
- Tests: a blue half-transparent cube with a red top exports, re-imports
with its opacity and the red top face, and keeps it when opened and
exported again. 3MF writes the alpha and the face entry.

- Surfaces of revolution follow ISO 10303-42 strictly in reader and writer: the
normal is d/d(angle) x d/d(profile), the opposite of truck's revolution, as
Fusion reads it (fixes Fusion inverting fillet sphere corners and the dimple).
step_orientation_errors flags faces whose loop runs clockwise round their
normal; engine, oracle and kernel round trips assert it.
- Revolved faces with analytic profiles are written as native PLANE,
CYLINDRICAL/CONICAL/SPHERICAL/TOROIDAL surfaces, and the pieces truck splits
a revolution into are merged back into one face per surface (with a seam
edge for full turns), so face counts match other systems.
- A horn torus (tight sweep: tube touching its axis) is written as one rational
B-spline face whose loop passes the pole twice, with truck's zero-length pole
edges collapsed, instead of a degenerate surface of revolution; the reader
starts such figure-eight loops off the pole (Fusion's own part 50 now imports
with the right volume).

Our writer assembles the file: AP242 header and contexts, a product per part
(or per component, with NEXT_ASSEMBLY_USAGE_OCCURRENCE and item-defined
placements per occurrence), named solids, surface colours as styled items,
ADVANCED_FACE for advanced breps. truck now writes only each body's B-rep,
which we copy in; identical geometric entities are written once and shared.
Designs with components export as assemblies (bodies in component frames).
step_validate also rejects unreferenced non-root entities. Tests: the sample
plate and a component assembly export, validate and read back with no
warnings and the same volume, area and face counts; the oracle replay checks
area and faces too (39 rebuildable cases pass). An independent Part 21
parser (step-p21, run outside the repo) accepts our exports.

Vendored truck-stepio (writer only): an intersection curve's second surface
was written at the first one's id (duplicate ids for every boolean edge),
and revolved surfaces lost their orientation (the modeling-surface sense was
always true; inverted or mirrored revolutions came out inside out). Export
now writes intersection edges as C1 cubic B-splines through exact points,
so files carry plain 3D curves and no redundant surfaces.
Vendored truck-meshalgo: hinted parameter searches that run off a B-spline's
domain are rejected or clamped (meshing their grid never finished).
STEP import: straight revolution profiles are bounded in the meridian plane
and stop at the axis; loops on revolutions start away from the axis; face
extents include edge end points. Edges between pieces of one split surface
draw as seams.
kernel::step_validate checks a STEP file (duplicate ids, dangling
references, dense numbering); the oracle replay now exports every rebuilt
part, validates it and re-imports it with no warnings and the same volume
(all 32 rebuildable cases pass).

breps with voids, faceted breps, shell models; units (SI prefixes, conversion
based), product names, colours, assemblies (NAUO + item-defined

that cannot be read are left out and reported. Faces that wrap around a
closed non-periodic direction (pipe tori, revolved B-spline bands) are split

The kernel moved from monstertruck to truck: truck's booleans handle blind
holes, pockets and bosses that monstertruck's did not (see the ADR). Fillets
and chamfers on straight convex edges between planar faces are our own exact
local B-rep operation. The document holds parameters with unit-aware
expressions and a timeline that re-evaluates incrementally.
