Written in Korean. The CAD spec checker uses the rounded bbox, volume and mass values meant for the agent's summary as the real measurements, so requirements can pass or fail wrongly, and moving a shape can flip the bbox verdict.
Recurring agent failure issue in barocss (barocss)
What engineers report
A recurring agent failure problem in barocss (barocss) that mostly hits the mechanical designer.
Failure pattern: agent / failure
Analyst note
From the Grok pain-radar digests, Nov 8-9 2026 (Nov 8 8:41 AM ET through Nov 9 6:41 AM ET digests plus the Haitch editions). Verified live 2026-11-09: 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

Evidence
More recurring errors in barocss (barocss)
- A deleted detail view's dimensions can silently reattach to a new view that reuses its letter.MCAD · impact 66
- A suggested general tolerance drops its mm unit when saved, so an inch drawing could read it as plus or minus 0.2 inch.MCAD · impact 66
- Barocss BOM code starts each part at mass 0 and skips evaluation failures, so a failed part lands as a normal-looking row with 0 g, or drops out, and the total rolls up into the assembly. The panel shows the total and offers a purchase export. Source-inspected only; no real purchase or user harm was observed.MCAD · impact 66
- Rerunning auto-dimension can drop a tolerance the user typed onto an auto dimension, so the same measurement can come back without its tolerance.MCAD · impact 66
- This research note compares their CAD path with the Construct project, asking whether you can keep 'what source this part was authored from' separate from 'which CAD checks it actually passed', and trace both through author, diagnose, fix and visual review.MCAD · impact 66
