+# Memory — cycleCAD
+
+## Me
+SACHIN (vvlars@googlemail.com, GitHub: vvlars-cmd). Building cycleCAD — open-source browser-based parametric 3D CAD modeler. Also maintains ExplodeView (separate repo). Company: cycleWASH (bicycle washing machines).
+
+## Two Repos — CRITICAL DISTINCTION
+| Repo | Local Path | GitHub | npm | What |
+|------|-----------|--------|-----|------|
+| **ExplodeView** | `~/explodeview` | `vvlars-cmd/explodeview` | `explodeview` v1.0.5 | 3D CAD **viewer** for STEP files. 19,000+ line monolith app.js |
+| **cycleCAD** | `~/cyclecad` | `vvlars-cmd/cyclecad` | `cyclecad` v0.1.3 | Parametric 3D CAD **modeler**. 15 modular JS files. This is the active project. |
+
+**IMPORTANT**: These are SEPARATE repos. When Sachin says "cyclecad" he means `~/cyclecad`, NOT `~/explodeview/docs/cyclecad/`. I made this mistake once and was corrected.
+
+## Session History
+
+### Session 2026-03-24 — Hero Image + Major Feature Build
+
+**Problem evolution:**
+1. Started: Previous session crashed, needed to resume
+2. Task 1: Create polished hero image for npm/GitHub → Built HTML mockup of full cycleCAD UI, rendered to 2x retina PNG (2560×1440) with Playwright
+3. Task 2: Commit and push → Hit stale git lock files from crash, needed Sachin to remove locally
+4. Task 3: Push to npm → Found merge conflict in package.json (had `<<<<<<<` markers), fixed
+5. Task 4: Import DUO Inventor project → Sachin copied full production Inventor project (482 files) into `~/cyclecad/example/`
+6. Task 5: Build features using the real project data → Massive build session
+
+**What was built (this session):**
+
+5 NEW modules (3,540 lines):
+- `project-loader.js` (579 lines) — Parses .ipj project files, indexes entire Inventor folder structures, categorizes files as CUSTOM/STANDARD/VENDOR
+- `project-browser.js` (741 lines) — Folder tree UI with file type icons, categories, search, stats dashboard
+- `assembly-resolver.js` (477 lines) — Parses .iam binary files, extracts component references, resolves paths, generates BOM with quantities
+- `rebuild-guide.js` (743 lines) — Step-by-step recreation guides for both cycleCAD and Fusion 360 Free, with time estimates, HTML export
+
+4 ENHANCED modules (~800 lines added):
+- `operations.js` (690→1,078 lines) — Real fillet (edge-based), chamfer, boolean union/cut/intersect, shell, rectangular + circular pattern
+- `viewport.js` (643→667 lines) — Working toggleGrid, toggleWireframe, fitToObject with camera animation
+- `app.js` (724→794 lines) — Undo/redo with history snapshots, pushHistory after operations
+- `index.html` (1,425→1,852 lines) — All new modules wired in, Guide tab in right panel, project browser integration, toolbar buttons connected to real functions
+
+**Testing results:**
+- Parser validated against 342/342 real DUO .ipt files — 100% success rate
+- Feature detection: FlatPattern 52%, WorkPlane 44%, WorkAxis 4%
+- Main assembly .iam (9.1 MB) parsed successfully — 47 components found
+- Performance: 2-5ms per file
+
+**Git state at end of session:**
+- Commit ready but BLOCKED by stale `.git/index.lock` — Sachin needs to run:
+  ```
+  cd ~/cyclecad
+  rm -f .git/index.lock
+  git add .gitignore MASTERPLAN.md app/index.html app/js/app.js app/js/operations.js app/js/viewport.js app/js/assembly-resolver.js app/js/project-browser.js app/js/project-loader.js app/js/rebuild-guide.js
+  git commit -m "feat: Major update — project loader, assembly resolver, rebuild guides, parametric ops"
+  git push origin main
+  ```
+- npm publish v0.1.4 after push

+
+## Feature Status
+
+### WORKING
+- 3D viewport (Three.js r170, OrbitControls, preset views, grid, wireframe, fit-to-all)
+- 2D sketch engine (line, rect, circle, arc, polyline, grid snap, constraint detection)
+- Parametric operations (extrude, revolve, fillet, chamfer, boolean, shell, pattern)
+- Feature tree (rename, suppress, delete, context menus)
+- Parameter editor (real-time updates, 6 materials with density data)
+- Export (STL ASCII+binary, OBJ, glTF 2.0, cycleCAD JSON)
+- AI chatbot (Gemini + Groq + local NLP, 15+ part types)
+- Inventor parsing (OLE2/CFB, 26 feature types, constraints, metadata)
+- Assembly resolver (reference extraction, path resolution, BOM)
+- Project loader (.ipj parsing, folder indexing, file categorization)
+- Project browser (tree UI, search, categories, stats)
+- Rebuild guides (cycleCAD + Fusion 360, per-step time estimates, HTML export)
+- Reverse engineering (STL import, geometry analysis, feature inference)
+- Keyboard shortcuts (25+)
+- Undo/redo (history snapshots, Ctrl+Z/Y)
+- Welcome splash with quick actions
+- Dark theme UI (VS Code-style CSS variables)
+
+### STUBS/APPROXIMATIONS
+- Fillet/chamfer use torus/cone approximations (not true edge rounding)
+- Boolean cut is visual indicator only (no real CSG)
+- STEP export shows error (needs OpenCascade.js)
+- Revolve doesn't fully rebuild on param change
+- History restore is basic (feature list only, no geometry serialization)
+
+### NOT YET BUILT
+- Constraint solver for sketches
+- Sweep, loft operations
+- Sheet metal tools
+- Assembly workspace (joint placement, motion)
+- Real-time collaboration
+- DXF/DWG export
+- Plugin API
+
+## Competitive Landscape
+| Competitor | What | Our Edge |
+|-----------|------|----------|
+| Fusion 360 | Cloud CAD, $$$, Autodesk | Free, open-source, opens Inventor natively |
+| MecAgent (MIT) | AI learns CAD from demos | We ship product, not research |
+| VideoCAD | 41K video dataset, AI training | Dataset only, no product. 186-action sequences |
+| AurorInCAD | AI CAD startup | Closed-source, early stage |
+| OnShape | Browser CAD (PTC) | Expensive, enterprise-only |
+| FreeCAD | Desktop open-source | Desktop-only, no AI, no Inventor import |
+
+## Publishing
+- **npm**: `cyclecad` v0.1.3 published (v0.1.4 pending push)
+- **GitHub**: https://github.com/vvlars-cmd/cyclecad
+- **Domain**: cyclecad.com → GitHub Pages (CNAME in repo)
+- **Hero image**: `screenshot.png` — 2x retina UI mockup, renders on npm + GitHub README
+
+## Sachin's Working Style
+- **Fast iteration, minimal questions** — prefers action over clarification
+- **Direct communication** — "ok" to proceed, "go ahead" to authorize, short corrections
+- **Corrects immediately** — "why are you in explodeview you should be in the cyclecad"
+- **Expects me to figure things out** — "look at cyclecad in my home folder" not exact paths
+- **Shares terminal output** — pastes errors/results directly
+- **Runs git auth locally** — VM can't authenticate with GitHub
+- **Long autonomous sessions** — expects me to keep building without stopping to ask
+- **Cares about competitors** — wants to know what MecAgent, VideoCAD, AurorInCAD are doing
+- **Backup before major changes** (for ExplodeView)
+- **Cache bust bump on every change** (for ExplodeView)
+
+## Collaboration Patterns
+1. **Build first, show results** — don't ask what to build, just build it and show
+2. **Use the right repo** — `~/cyclecad` for cycleCAD, `~/explodeview` for ExplodeView
+3. **When git is blocked** — give exact copy-paste commands for Sachin's terminal
+4. **Handle crashes gracefully** — check for lock files, explain fix, move on
+5. **Commit with author** — `git -c user.name="Sachin Kumar" -c user.email="vvlars@googlemail.com"`
+6. **Mount folders** — use `request_cowork_directory` with `~/cyclecad` path
+7. **Test with real data** — always validate against actual DUO Inventor files
+8. **Parallel agents** — use multiple agents for independent tasks to save time
+
+## Processes Established
+- **Hero image pipeline**: HTML mockup → Playwright 2x render → save as screenshot.png
+- **Git in VM**: Set author via `-c` flags. Can't push (no GitHub creds). Sachin pushes locally.
+- **Inventor testing**: Node.js script at `/sessions/sharp-modest-allen/test-parser.js` — standalone OLE2 parser for batch testing
+- **Feature development**: Build module → wire into index.html inline script → test → commit
+
+## Recurring Git Issues
+- **Stale lock files** — sessions crash and leave `.git/index.lock` or `.git/HEAD.lock`
+- **Fix**: Sachin runs `rm -f ~/cyclecad/.git/index.lock ~/cyclecad/.git/HEAD.lock`
+- **Merge conflicts** — remote diverges when npm publish bumps version
+- **Fix**: `git pull --rebase origin main`, resolve conflicts, `GIT_EDITOR=true git rebase --continue`
+- **Vim pops up** — use `GIT_EDITOR=true` to skip editor on rebase continue
+- **Swap files** — crash leaves `.COMMIT_EDITMSG.swp`, delete with `rm .git/.COMMIT_EDITMSG.swp`
+
+## Pending / Next Steps
+- [ ] **IMMEDIATE**: Remove git lock, commit, push (commands above)
+- [ ] **npm publish** v0.1.4 after push
+- [ ] Bump package.json to 0.1.4 before publish
+- [ ] Test live site at cyclecad.com/app/ with new features
+- [ ] Add DUO project as downloadable demo (ZIP or separate hosting, too big for git)
+- [ ] Phase 5 from MASTERPLAN: Constraint solver, sweep, loft, sheet metal tools
+- [ ] Phase 6: Assembly workspace with joint placement
+- [ ] Phase 7: AI sketch-to-3D, smart autocomplete, design validation
+- [ ] LinkedIn launch post for cycleCAD
+- [ ] Clean up ExplodeView repo lock files too

+### Phase 4: Real Project Testing 🔄 IN PROGRESS
+- [ ] Test parser against all 393 DUO .ipt files
+- [ ] Test assembly resolver against 80 .iam files
+- [ ] Validate rebuild guides for real parts
+- [ ] Performance testing (482 files, batch operations)
+- [ ] Fix edge cases in OLE2 parsing
+
+### Phase 5: Advanced Modeling (Next)
+- [ ] **Constraint solver** — parametric sketch constraints (parallel, perpendicular, tangent, coincident, equal, fixed)
+- [ ] **Dimension-driven design** — change a dimension, model updates
+- [ ] **Sweep** — extrude along a path
+- [ ] **Loft** — blend between profiles
+- [ ] **Thread** — cosmetic + modeled threads
+- [ ] **Sheet metal tools** — flange, bend, hem, fold, flat pattern, K-factor
+- [ ] **Work features** — construction planes, axes, points
+- [ ] **3D sketch** — sketch in 3D space, not just on planes
+- [ ] **Direct edit** — push/pull faces without feature tree
+- [ ] **Hole wizard** — counterbore, countersink, tapped holes with standard sizes
+
+### Phase 6: Assembly Modeling
+- [ ] **Assembly workspace** — place components, define joints
+- [ ] **Joint types** — rigid, revolute, slider, cylindrical, planar, ball
+- [ ] **Mate constraints** — Inventor-style mates (compatible with parsed .iam data)
+- [ ] **Motion simulation** — animate joints, check interference
+- [ ] **Exploded views** — automatic + manual explosion
+- [ ] **Assembly BOM** — auto-generated from tree, export to CSV/Excel
+- [ ] **Cross-references** — "where used" for any part
+
+### Phase 7: AI-Powered Features
+- [ ] **AI sketch-to-3D** — describe a part in words → get a parametric model
+- [ ] **Smart autocomplete** — predict next operation based on context
+- [ ] **Part recognition** — upload photo → identify standard part → suggest McMaster-Carr
+- [ ] **Design validation** — check for manufacturability issues
+- [ ] **Cost estimation** — estimate manufacturing cost from geometry + material
+- [ ] **Natural language editing** — "make the hole 2mm larger" → parametric change
+- [ ] **Assembly instructions** — auto-generate step-by-step from assembly tree
+- [ ] **Maintenance scheduling** — predict part wear from material + usage patterns
+
+### Phase 8: Manufacturing Integration
+- [ ] **DXF/DWG export** — 2D drawings from 3D models
+- [ ] **STEP export** — via OpenCascade.js or server-side
+- [ ] **3D print slicer** — built-in G-code generation
+- [ ] **CNC toolpath** — basic 2.5D milling paths
+- [ ] **Laser/waterjet** — flat pattern → DXF for cutting
+- [ ] **Kiri:Moto integration** — send to Kiri for advanced slicing
+- [ ] **McMaster-Carr links** — direct purchase links for standard parts
+- [ ] **Tolerance analysis** — GD&T annotations
+
+### Phase 9: Collaboration & Sharing
+- [ ] **Real-time collaboration** — multiple users editing same model (WebRTC)
+- [ ] **Version control** — git-like branching for design iterations
+- [ ] **Comments/annotations** — pin notes to features/faces
+- [ ] **Share links** — public URL for any model
+- [ ] **Embed widget** — `<iframe>` embed for websites/docs
+- [ ] **PDF reports** — auto-generate technical documentation
+
+### Phase 10: Platform
+- [ ] **Plugin API** — extend cycleCAD with custom tools
+- [ ] **Model library** — browse/search community models
+- [ ] **Template gallery** — start from common templates
+- [ ] **Multi-language** — EN, DE, FR, ES, IT, NL (already in ExplodeView)
+- [ ] **Mobile/tablet** — responsive touch UI
+- [ ] **PWA** — installable, works offline
+- [ ] **Desktop app** — Electron wrapper for local file access

+## What Makes cycleCAD Different
+1. **Opens existing Inventor projects** — no other browser CAD does this
+2. **Reverse engineers parts** — generates rebuild guides for Fusion 360 + cycleCAD
+3. **AI-native** — not bolted on, integrated from day 1
+4. **Zero install** — open a URL, start working
+5. **Open source** — MIT license, community-driven
+6. **Real-world tested** — built for the cycleWASH DUO (473 parts, production machine)
