+  <documentation>
+    A composite block (non-empty composition) is a wrapper mb_block() with
+    nested child calls, inside a typed module named by FqnNaming.
+
+    Module body order:
+
+    1. Native parameters via mb_param_* getters.
+    2. Custom parameters via mb_param.
+    3. assembly = mb_assembly(config, settings, size, direction)
+       and renderGroups = mb_param_renderGroups(config, settings).
+    4. Wrapper mb_block with id, base false, studs false, size, align, offset,
+       direction.
+    5. One child region per composition child: part_/group_/ns_ locals, then
+       mb_block with id mb_block_id(...), render mb_group_render(...), size
+       expression, and assembly helpers from AssemblyPatterns.
+
+    Wrapper decision:
+
+    - 0 children and custom processor logic — that logic renders; no wrapper.
+    - 0 children and no custom processor — diagnostic MB_EMPTY_BLOCK.
+    - exactly 1 child — no wrapper; the child is rendered directly.
+    - 2 or more children — automatic wrapper. Children render inside it.
+
+    The wrapper always sets base false and studs false, ignoring the block's
+    own base and studs. The wrapper is a layout container. Geometry is the
+    children. The block's base and studs are passed to the NativeBlock children.
+
+        Cross.studs = true
+          wrapper: studs false (processor)
+          children: studs true (block property)
+
+    Composite blocks do not need to declare base false or studs false for the
+    wrapper. Those properties keep their meaning for the children.
+
+    The automatic wrapper is only the outermost container, once per processor
+    invocation. Nested blocks in the composition are real instances, not extra
+    wrappers.
+
+    Illustrative child settings (top part) include offset via
+    mb_assembly_offset and baseCutoutType via mb_assembly_groove. Bottom parts
+    include tongue via mb_assembly_tongue. Both forward baseAdjustment through
+    mb_params_filter with that part's namespace.

+
+    For each exposed property:
+
+    - Variable declaration with default value
+    - Inline comment with customizer dropdown syntax where it applies
+    - Group comment /* [Group Name] */ for property groups
+
+    The hidden section /* [Hidden] */ holds derived variables that combine

+    computations are never placed in the hidden section.
+
+    OpenSCAD customizer supports only flat primitives. The processor splits

+    Canonical BOM stores expressions as ExpressionValue { raw }. The expression
+    renderer obtains a typed AST via parseExpression() (a working-model utility,
+    not a canonical BOM field) and serializes it to SCAD.
+
+    Static: if the expression has no runtime-dependent roots, emit the resolved
+    value. ${ [1, 1, 1] } becomes [1, 1, 1].
+
+    Dynamic: if it references block properties or bml:with variables, emit a
+    SCAD expression. StructType members are addressed by name in BML. The
+    expression language rejects a numeric index on a StructType (size[0]).
+    A collection index (items[0]) stays an index.
+
+    When the property's SCAD form is a positional array, a named member becomes
+    the declaration-order index of that field. That is the default StructType
+    serialization and the V1 path. SizeXYZ declares x, y, z, so:
+
+        ${ [size.x, size.y, size.z - 1] }
+          -> [size[0], size[1], size[2] - 1]
+        ${ #math.max(size.z - 1, 0) }
+          -> max(size[2] - 1, 0)
+
+    When the property's SCAD form is an OpenSCAD object, the member stays
+    name.member. That form belongs to the future object() settings emitter.
+
+    Root mapping:
+
+    - myProperty -> SCAD local variable of that name
+    - myProperty.member on an array-form value -> name[declarationOrdinal]
+    - myProperty.member on an object-form value -> name.member
+    - items[i] on a collection -> items[i]
+    - withVariable -> SCAD local from the bml:with scope
+    - #math.min(a, b) / #math.max(a, b) -> min / max via the native map
+
+    V1 does not execute @bean calls or model bindings as SCAD. A TypeScript
+    implementation whose arguments are all literals is evaluated at compile
+    time and emitted as that literal. Any other @bean call is not emitted;
+    the diagnostic is BML_FUNCTION_NO_RUNTIME_IMPL. OpenSCAD capability
+    implementations (FQN-prefixed functions) are a later processor and are
+    not required for V1 block and set emit.

+    Every MBOM block class is identified by its definition FQN. This target
+    maps that FQN to a manifestation FQN, then to a module name and a file path.
+    The mapping is a MachineBlocks convention, not a BlockML platform rule.
+    Other targets do not replace a bml segment and do not emit one file per block.
+
+    Automatic mapping applies when targetOptions omit sourcePackage and
+    targetPackage. Split the FQN on "." and replace the one segment whose text
+    is exactly bml with scad. The match is case-sensitive and segment-wide.
+    mybml and bmlmodels are not bml. The replacement is not a substring search
+    and does not prefer the first or last segment.
+
+        Definition FQN:    com.machineblocks.bml.examples.Cross
+        Manifestation FQN: com.machineblocks.scad.examples.Cross

+
+    Zero bml segments: MB_TARGET_PACKAGE_UNDETERMINED. The message names the
+    source FQN and tells the caller to pass --target-package and, if needed,
+    --source-package. More than one bml segment: MB_TARGET_PACKAGE_AMBIGUOUS.
+    The message names the source FQN. Neither case writes a file.
+
+    Explicit mapping applies when both sourcePackage and targetPackage are set.
+    A definition FQN equal to the source package, or starting with that package
+    plus a dot, keeps the remainder and swaps the root:
+
+        sourcePackage com.example.models
+        targetPackage com.example.scad
+        com.example.models.bricks.MyBrick
+          -> com.example.scad.bricks.MyBrick
+
+    The bml-to-scad replacement is not applied on top. A selected block outside
+    the source package is MB_SOURCE_OUTSIDE_ROOT. A referenced FQN outside the
+    source package (an import or a child module) uses automatic mapping instead.
+    If that automatic mapping fails, the compile fails and the host writes nothing.
+
+    Preset JSON uses the same manifestation with extension .json.
+    The output root is the configured blocks directory (srcDir), not a guessed
+    dist, build, or scad directory.
+
+    Name rules:
+
+    - Segments separated by double underscore (__)
+    - Packages lowercase
+    - Class names PascalCase
+    - Subclasses: additional PascalCase segment
+    - Private helpers: __help__camelCase (not a block)
+    - Private functions: __func__camelCase (not a block)

+
+        com.machineblocks.bml.bricks.Standard

+
+    The names help and func are reserved and cannot be subclass names.

+
+    The assembly helpers and mb_group_render read assembly mode or
+    renderGroups.
+
+    mb_block_id is str(blockId, "/", part). blockId comes from
+    mb_param_id(config, settings, fqn) and can be overridden from outside, so
+    the renderer emits the call. NativeBlock documents the part id as
+    "blockId/partName".
+
+    Decided — mb_params_filter(baseAdjustment, namespace, overrides?):
+    The parameter name is baseAdjustment. Core 3.0.0 renamed it from
+    baseSideAdjustment. When the map is the runtime parameter (config or
+    customizer), emit the call. When the map is a static literal, emit the
+    filtered pseudo-map. The optional third argument applies fixed overrides
+    after the namespace filter. Entries without a namespace and entries with
+    numeric keys are ignored.
+
+    mb_parts_total_size(parts) is the SCAD bounding box of the parts after
+    direction resolution. Each entry is [id, size, direction, offset], the
+    same layout as a STEPS row. id is required. size, direction, and offset
+    are indexes 1, 2, and 3. The renderer emits the call:
+
+        size = mb_parts_total_size(parts);

+    Every generated file imports the MachineBlocks V3 library and the project
+    config. Paths are relative to the output file, using mbLibPath from
+    targetOptions under the key machineblocks-v3-scad. The compiler
+    RenderSession has no mbLibPath field. When mbLibPath is absent this slice
+    returns files: [] and diagnostic BML_MB_LIB_PATH_MISSING.
+
+    Standard imports (angle brackets are SCAD include syntax):
+
+        use <{relative_path_to_scad_lib}/lib/block.scad>;
+        include <{relative_path_to_scad_lib}/config/mb_config.scad>;
+
+    Ordinary composite compositions render leaf instances as mb_block()
+    (NativeBlock). They do not use-import dependency block SCAD files.
+
+    Sets (com.machineblocks.bml.core.Set) reference typed block modules by the
+    placed part's type FQN. The set processor emits a use import for each
+    distinct type file, for example use <../wall/Wall.scad>, and each instance
+    module calls that type's manifestation module.
+
+    When expressions reference a #built-in call that is not a native SCAD
+    mapping, the processor adds a use import for that service file, and only
+    when the service is actually used:
+
+        use <{relative}/blocks/org/blockml/bml/service/Math.scad>;
+        use <{relative}/blocks/org/blockml/bml/service/Strings.scad>;
+
+    Service SCAD files live in @machineblocks/core at
+    blocks/org/blockml/bml/service/ (Math.scad, Strings.scad, Numbers.scad,
+    Lists.scad, Bools.scad). They are pre-rendered artifacts. BML service
+    definitions in @blockml/core are the SSOT. Import paths are always relative
+    to the output file directory.

+    Purpose and place of the MachineBlocks SCAD render target
+  </is>
+  <documentation>
+    This target serializes MBOM blocks into MachineBlocks V3 SCAD files.
+    It is a product render target, separate from @machineblocks/core and from
+    the BlockML toolchain targets (blockdoc, xsd, fatblock).
+
+    @machineblocks/core holds the domain BML, documentation, the SCAD runtime
+    (lib/block.scad and related files), and example pairs such as
+    com.machineblocks.bml.examples.Cross with
+    blocks/com/machineblocks/scad/examples/Cross.scad. This package reads that
+    library; it does not vendor it.
+
+    Output is MachineBlocks World interpretation: SCAD mb_block() calls. That is
+    not a BlockML platform rule. Other targets may emit React, KiCad, or Python
+    with no block concept. Mapping used here:
+
+    - BML NativeBlock — mb_block() at the leaf (explicit 1:1)
+    - BML composition — nested mb_block() tree
+    - Domain types such as Wall — lowered to mb_block() settings
+    - BML Set — STEPS array plus view submodules
+
+    All MBOM-to-SCAD mappings are declarative. Processors do not hardcode
+    parameter inventories. Native parameters come from NativeBlock.bml.
+
+    The target is browser and Node compatible. No Node-only APIs.
+    Host entry for users is @machineblocks/cli.
