A 60 percent keyboard PCB and its case disagreed in three places: the plate's NPTH clearance was -1.71 mm, the stock 12.8 mm USB-C notch was -0.67 mm against the plug, and the J3 pocket had 0.33 mm. All three got fixed as new variants, and a check_mechanical_fit.py script now reports 19 pass. The evidence had been sitting in a gitignored workspace until this PR.

maru60 (minpeter)ECADAgent failureMedium confidence

What engineers report

A recurring agent failure problem in maru60 (minpeter) that mostly hits the electrical engineer.

Failure pattern: validation / failure

Analyst note

From the Grok pain-radar digests, Nov 10-11 2026 (Nov 10 8:41 AM ET through Nov 11 7:41 AM ET digests plus the Haitch editions). Verified live 2026-11-11: issue/PR read; title and state confirmed.

What it costs a team

Modeled annual cost

$30,000

For a team of 5

Prototype delay

3 days

Modeled schedule slip per occurrence

Time lost

240 min

Per engineer per month, about 1 incidents

How the cost is modeled

240 min/month × 5 engineers × 12 months = 240 hours × $125/hour = $30,000

A modeled estimate with medium confidence. Swap in your own team size and loaded rate to size it for your team.
