Recurring brepax (lv416e) errors, by impact

  1. 1A fresh install of the published package picked up OCCT 8 bindings and failed importing its STEP reader.MCAD · Agent failure · 1 report66
  2. 2prepare_hole_edit rejected through-holes because "STEP exporters commonly split a full cylinder into two half-cylinder faces." The fix unifies same-domain faces first, behind an opt-in flag, with a tolerance bound on volume and area change. Geometry that's fine in the source tool arrives in a shape the next tool can't reason about.MCAD · Agent failure · 1 report66
  3. 3The rebuild check compared whole-solid volume and center of mass from OCCT, but on parts with B-spline faces a no-op edit shifted volume by up to 2e-7 relative, so good edits were rejected. The fix compares only the changed regions.MCAD · Agent failure · 1 report66
