AgentCAD (lizaixi01)MCADConfidence: Medium

In a rerun (Codex, A3 sheet, 1:2 viewport) dimensions printed at 1.75 mm against a 2.5 mm minimum. The agent saw PRINTED_TEXT_TOO_SMALL and left it on purpose, because the task said not to change dimensions and both suggested fixes would break that, while the right fix, DIMSCALE, only re-rendered dimensions in the tool's own style.
