When a SolidWorks OneBend feature's inner and outer face lists differed, or the sheet outline was rounded, the press-brake planner's SolidWorks import stopped with 'bend could not be matched.' It now tells bends apart using the measured bend axis, radius, angle and real sheet thickness. For the tooling catalogue, WILA's CAD needs a login and Rolleri's direct request returned 403, so only public spec data went in.
Recurring agent failure issue in gokworks (gkkizil)
What engineers report
A recurring agent failure problem in gokworks (gkkizil) that mostly hits the mechanical designer.
Failure pattern: validation / failure
Analyst note
From the Grok pain-radar digests, Nov 9-10 2026 (Nov 9 7:41 AM ET through Nov 10 7:41 AM ET digests plus the Haitch editions). Verified live 2026-11-10: 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 gokworks (gkkizil)
- a shaft design tool's "draw in SOLIDWORKS" button could return with no document while the UI kept saying it was preparing the connection (the host passed SolidWorks' interface id where it needed the application class id), and a second bug let the old phase overwrite the error on screen so the user never saw the failure.MCAD · impact 66
- SolidWorks automation could create a groove sketch with no successful cut, so a shaft keyway looked done and was not; the fix compares real volume removed against the analytic groove volume and rejects zero removal.MCAD · impact 66
