§1Prompt verbatim

Living-hinge 80 × 30 × 6 mm with two 40 × 30 × 6 mm leaves and a 0.5 mm hinge web. All overhangs ≤ 45° from build plate, single body, FDM-printable without support material on a 0.4 mm nozzle.

§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.
