High-genus subtraction (lattice block)

sha256:771ec0aa1bd2c6f3…

§1Prompt verbatim

Subtract a 7 × 7 × 7 array of 4 mm cylindrical holes from a 60 × 60 × 60 mm cube. Holes spaced at 8 mm pitch, fully through. Genus = 343.

§3Reference render

canonical reference · drag to orbit, scroll to zoom

Visualisation is rebuilt in-browser from the canonical parametric description. Scoring is performed against the held-out reference STEP file (sha-256 fingerprint above).

Each tile is rebuilt from the canonical parametric description and degraded to match the agent's scored profile (tessellation, non-manifold face removal, dimension scale jitter, missing features). Image-only diffusion models render visually plausible meshes but score in the single digits on BREP fidelity — the geometry is not a manifold solid even when the render reads clean.
