* Structured hex meshing: multi-level extrude and revolve, one-to-one sweep, mapped blocks (M5) modelcraft_mesh::hex::hex_mesh meshes a face-tagged boundary surface with hexahedra by the first structured method that fits: a straight or rotational multi-level sweep (imprinted cross-section arrangement, cuts at reflex corners, mapped/annulus/free regions), a one-to-one sweep through rings of linking faces (least-squares affine layers with residual correction), or a mapped logical cube (trivariate transfinite interpolation). Interval assignment couples shared curves; boundary quads carry B-rep face tags; the certified validity gate, a tiling check and a fidelity check guard the output; hex20 mid-edge nodes go onto the faces. Shape::face_surfaces exposes the analytic face surfaces; the corpus runner gets a structured hex column.

The quality pass certifies each element once and feeds the validity gate (quality::validity_gate_checks). Shape::size gives the cached body size for defaults instead of a full measure.

The corpus reports hex8 and hex20 quality.

The planned M6 octree entry moves to mesh.hex.octree (its icon renamed with it). docs/features.md regenerated.

Edge triangles come from the feature edges, layer counts go through size::edge_divisions, sweep residual weights are computed once per node, flux shape functions live on the stack, and the arrangement's exact side test and distances serve the region probe. The engine takes the boundary options mesh.tet.generate takes and names unnamed faces by index like it; the corpus hex20 run reuses the winning method; the mapped entry lists mesh.hex.generate too; the octree icon is redrawn under its new id.

ModelCraft
An open-source, clean-room CAE modeling application in pure Rust: geometry to analysis-ready finite element models, with robust tetrahedral and hexahedral meshing, solver decks for Abaqus, Nastran and LS-DYNA, and its own linear static and modal solver. Desktop, browser and AI agents drive the same commands.
Status: early. The workspace, quality gates, the FE model, the command engine and the geometry boundary (SolidCraft's kernel and tessellator) are in place; meshing is next. See ROADMAP.md.
Build
cargo xtask ci # fmt, assets, licences, layers, clippy, tests, wasm

cargo run -p modelcraft-cli -- commands # every command and its parameters
cargo run -p modelcraft-cli -- run script.json # run a command script
cargo run -p modelcraft-cli -- mcp # MCP server on stdio for AI agents (docs/mcp.md)
Rust 1.95 or later, with the wasm32-unknown-unknown target for cargo xtask ci.
