* Tangent hole contacts: every symmetric contact gives the same faces (#307) Three things made the four symmetric contacts of reference case 42 differ: - The 2D prism boolean's ray-parity test miscounted a ray grazing the bottom of a patterned hole, whose two halves are read back with centres a few ulps apart: one half counted the touch, the other missed it. The loop chaining then failed and those cuts fell back to the general boolean, which treats circles tangent within its tolerance as overlapping and splits the hole. The ray is now moved off vertices and arc extremes by far less than any modelling tolerance. - The prism result's volume check used a coarser mesh than the operands, so a plate with many holes read too large and correct results were rejected. - The merged topology did not join a hole's two pieces across the line where two tangent holes touch (four faces meet there). Case 42 now gives 39 faces (33 holes, 6 planes); its expected.json pins it.

Reference tests (the oracle)
Each directory is one case:
recipe.json: the part, written in SolidCraft's recipe format (sketches in sketch-local coordinates, features with their parameters, faces and edges picked by a world-space point).cargo xtask oraclereplays it through SolidCraft's command engine.expected.json: what the part must measure, and where those numbers come from.reference.stl(optional): a fine triangulation of the expected part, used to check the shape itself (surface distance), not only its totals.
Run every case with cargo xtask oracle; it writes docs/oracle.md.

| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
source |
"analytic" (closed-form geometry, worked out by hand; method gives the formulas) or "freecad <version>" (built from the same recipe by tools/freecad-oracle/). |
method |
How the numbers were obtained: formulas for analytic cases, the construction for FreeCAD ones. |
body_count |
Number of solid bodies. |
volume_mm3, area_mm2 |
Totals over all bodies. |
center_of_mass |
Volume-weighted centroid of all bodies (uniform density). |
bbox |
Axis-aligned bounding box of all bodies. |
faces |
Optional. Only where the geometry fixes the count: a face is a maximal smooth patch of one surface (a full cylinder side is one face; coplanar neighbours are one face). |
compare |
Optional. Restricts the comparison to these keys (for example ["volume_mm3", "area_mm2"] where kernels legitimately build different corner patches); note says why. |
tolerance |
Optional overrides: rel (volume, area; default 1e-3), abs_mm (centre of mass and bbox, default 1e-3 × the bbox diagonal), surface_mm (STL surface distance). |
note |
Optional remarks. |
No value here was measured in, or exported from, any commercial CAD product.
