Ruled Surface: strips off an edge chain in normal, tangent, angle or direction mode, exact planes/cylinders/cones where possible, mitred or round corners, stitched into one surface body. SurfaceRuled is noted under format 21. Closes#762.
* Smart Extrude: direction from the picked side, Cut into a body stays a Cut (#1257)
- A sketch profile (or a thin extrude's curve) extrudes toward the side it was
picked from: from the bottom view it goes down. Body faces still go outward.
- The automatic operation is latched per side of the profile: a drag that starts
into a body is a Cut and stays one past the far side; a Join does not become a
Cut when it reaches another body. Passing through zero decides afresh for the
new side.
- An explicit operation, Direction or Reverse ends the automatic choices.
- auto_operation also looks just past the profile, so a long cut through a body
reads as a Cut from the start (the engine's operation: "auto" too).

#1164 joins a body that sits flush on a rounded rim into it. In seed 13 the
rectangular pattern's second box (x 5..7.5) sits flush on the half-ring's top
face with a 27 mm2 contact patch. It used to stay a separate shell (one body,
three shells); now it joins the ring (area -54 mm2, twice the patch). The
fillet edge and hole position the generator picks next come from the new
geometry, so the end state differs: 3 bodies, 2647.95 mm3 (was 4, 2300.91).
Every step stays a sound solid, and no other seed moves.

* Action matrix: nightly shards cut by measured cost, heavy designs in slices, and a determinism check
The full matrix ran as four fixed quarters of the corpus and two of them hit the 60-minute
job limit. Now action_matrix_shard runs shard k of n (ACTION_MATRIX_SHARD=k/n), planned from
tests/action_matrix/costs.json: designs that take more than five minutes are split into slices,
and the pieces go largest first to the least loaded shard. The nightly runs 12 shards and uploads
each one's outcomes and timings; cargo xtask action-matrix --from DIR --bless records them in the
baseline and costs.json without running the matrix again. action_matrix_determinism runs a sample
twice and lists any action whose outcome changed.

* Action matrix: costs measured on runners, 10 shards, determinism on the lighter designs
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
* Action matrix: baseline and costs from a full run on main, 16 shards, timeouts listed
The baseline is regenerated from the 10 shards' results of a full run on 01b1b705
(cargo xtask action-matrix --from DIR --bless): 8 new designs, 302 actions that pass now,
names that changed, and 40 actions that passed before and fail now, each listed in #1255
(22 fillets refused since #949, 4 hinge blends since #1101, 9 on the loft cut, 5 single).
costs.json now holds every design's measured time, and the nightly runs 16 shards of about
17 minutes. An action that passes in the baseline and times out is listed but not judged,
and stays passing when blessed: two runs of the same build differed only on 10 actions that
took 50-84 s against the 90 s limit.

* Action matrix: slice heavy designs by a hash of each action's name
Slicing by index gave some slices only fillets on oracle 41 (28 slices, a multiple of the
actions per edge), three times the planned time; two shards ran past their limit.

The preview builds only the tool; the boolean runs once on OK, off the window thread, with a Computing label while it takes a while. Follow-up to #1020.
Lands the Render workspace (R3), bounded preview-image jobs with cancellation and atomic PNG export (R4a), and opaque PBR looks as one change.
- Render workspace: an overlay-free product preview on the installed GPU device. Returning to Design restores its camera. render.scene and render.settings.apply are added.
- Image jobs: render.preflight/start/status/cancel/export run bounded CPU preview jobs. Export captures the job, overwrite choice and document, and checks the caller's file scope before writing.
- Opaque PBR: looks can carry metal fraction, roughness and dielectric IOR. The product viewport and preview PNG use them; geometry and mass are unchanged. The v1 catalog export refuses PBR rather than dropping it.
- Render setups and PBR looks are saved under design format 21. Labels are in en/de/ja/ko/zh/ru.
Supersedes #706 and #800. Refs #620, #673, #756, #1004.

Adds a French catalog as a partial locale (missing strings fall back to English, like Russian), registered in the language list, with tests and attribution.
A design carries metadata (format 21): project, part number, revision, author, organization, description and license, plus other tools' data under reverse-DNS keys, kept as written. Edited in the Design Properties window (Document Settings), set by document.metadata.set, reported by inspect_design, and written into STEP, IGES and 3MF where the format has a place for them. Translated, with tests.
The AMD FirePro D300/D500/D700 Metal driver hangs on the tessellation compute shader and macOS resets the GPU, freezing the desktop. Bodies are built on the CPU on that device, and SOLIDCRAFT_CPU_TESS=1 forces the CPU path on any GPU. The check is a tested predicate, and the troubleshooting guide documents the variable.
A crash inside a graphics driver left only "an unclean exit between
commands": no backtrace, no module, no hint that it was at startup.
- The crash journal now keeps the startup step the app is in (window,
graphics instance, surface, adapter request, adapter chosen, device
creation, renderer and viewport shader compiles, surface configure,
first frame and its present, running) and the renderer as soon as the
adapter is picked. egui-wgpu tells the app about its steps through a
small hook. An unclean exit before the first frame names the step.
- Windows: an unhandled-exception filter (src/native_crash.rs, the one
Windows-only module allowed unsafe) writes the exception code, the
faulting module and offset, and a minidump next to the journal; the
next start puts them into the report.
- The Windows CI job runs a child that faults on purpose and checks the
report.

Colour vision modes (Protan, Deutan, Tritan) in Preferences > Graphics, with palettes, shader and icon colours adapted per mode, translations and tests.
render.settings.set saves validated named render setups (camera, output size, exposure, environment) as one undo step, and render.settings.get reads them back without applying a camera. When validated render settings are the only change, the engine keeps the evaluated model instead of rebuilding it. Setups are saved under design format 21; format-20 designs read as having none. Fixes#658; refs #620.

Publishing a non-prerelease release runs winget.yml, which opens the
winget-pkgs pull request for bherbruck.SolidCraft with Komac (pinned
2.16.0 binary, SHA-256 checked) from the three versioned MSIs. It skips
cleanly without the WINGET_TOKEN secret or before the package's first
version is in winget-pkgs. docs/releasing.md has the one-time token
setup; the README's Download section gains the winget install line.

* Windows: start Direct3D 12 first, and Vulkan only without a D3D12 GPU
wgpu started Vulkan, D3D12 and OpenGL together and preferred Vulkan, so
every Windows start loaded all installed Vulkan drivers. An old Intel
Vulkan driver (igvk64.dll) crashed 0.10.1 at startup inside the driver.
The app now probes D3D12, then Vulkan, then OpenGL, one backend at a
time, and starts only the first with a hardware adapter (WARP when none
has one). WGPU_BACKEND still wins; graphics.json's "backend" sets the
order by hand; the software renderer (safe mode, the retry) uses D3D12
alone. A new Windows CI job starts the real app under several settings.

WARP's shader JIT (d3d10warp.dll) crashed twice in 124 runs of the gpu
tests with four test threads, with a null read inside its own optimizer
while several devices compiled compute pipelines at once. Serial runs
did not crash.

Trimmed faces are cut into four-sided patches (squares around holes, butterflies for round faces, motorcycle traces from concave corners) and each is meshed as a Coons grid, with a cut grid as the fallback; cells are at most 2:1 along straight directions. Folded blends are refused rather than overlapped. The README lists display meshes and the gpu crate.
When projecting a face's boundary loop onto its surface fails from an unhinted first point, the walk is retried once from the first point an unhinted search does find; a walk that succeeds is unchanged. A fillet strip on an extended surface now meshes, so the rim cut in the reported case builds in one boolean.
The screenshot controls, the submission steps and the Open GitHub draft button stay outside the scrolling review; the clipboard fallback is explained before a long draft opens; text fields leave a pixel of room so the window no longer widens while idle at 140% scale. Instructions in en/de/ja/ko/zh.
A large design showed nothing but a progress bar until it had rebuilt completely. While
it rebuilds, the evaluation now offers the model built so far (placed as the design
places it) every 1.5 s to a window that asks, and the open card draws it as a small
picture on a thread of its own, the way it shows a saved preview. The bodies' meshes
made for it are the ones the finished model shows, so little is done twice. A design
that opens within the first interval shows none.

A primitive's `targets` live in the feature's participants beside its kind; renaming a body now renames them too, so a box or cylinder cutting the renamed body no longer fails with unknown body.
* Viewport: keep the model scene in blocks and upload only what changed
Every change rebuilt the whole model scene (every body's triangles and edges) and
uploaded all of it again, so a design an agent builds one body at a time paid for the
whole model on every command. The scene is now built in blocks of a few bodies, cut
where a body's own key says, and each block's bytes and GPU buffers are kept while the
block comes back unchanged. Body boxes (fit, picking, ground shadow) are kept per mesh.
Rendering is unchanged: the bicycle from bench-agent opens to a byte-identical
screenshot.

* Browser: find an occurrence's placed bodies by name, not by search per row
Each body row of a placed component searched the placement's bodies for its own, every
frame: quadratic in the component's bodies (720 for the bench-agent bicycle's hardware).

The reader converts each item once, but every instance made its own display mesh
(tessellation, seam and tangent flags), the most expensive step of opening a large
assembly. A later instance of an item now shows its first instance's mesh, placed by
the difference of the two placements. Only rigid placements share; split lines and
any operation drop the link. Measurements and export read each instance's own
geometry, so eval output is unchanged.
Generated assemblies: mesh phase 2,215 -> 139 ms (901 bodies) and 1,028 -> 85 ms
(5,401 bodies), with the same triangle counts.

sheet.export_dxf writes an AutoCAD 2000 drawing with ELLIPSE and SPLINE entities for ellipses, splines and text outlines instead of chords, with curves: arcs for machines that read only lines and arcs. Perforation circles go through the same writer. Closes#1089.
Rectangular and circular sketch patterns stay linked to their source: editing the pattern's count, spacing or the source geometry updates the copies, and the copies keep their point and radius relations. Patterns are saved under format 20; older designs keep their independent copies.
PathScope::check reports a missing folder inside the scope as NotFound with the nearest existing folder, instead of calling it outside the allowed folders. Paths outside the scope and dangling links are still refused. Fixes#1077.
