§1Prompt verbatim
Disc Ø 80 × 8 mm with central Ø 12 H7 bore, three Ø 6 H7 satellite bores on a 30 mm PCD at 0/120/240°, six M3 tapped holes on a 60 mm PCD at 30° offset.

Reference geometry is identical to MECH-027; this task evaluates paraphrase variance, not modelling skill.
§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.
