+

+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+### Three.js Dependencies
+All modules use THREE.js r170 from CDN:
+```javascript
+import * as THREE from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/three@0.170.0/build/three.module.js'
+```
+
+### Material Density Table
+Built-in for mass calculations:
+- Steel: 7.85 g/cm³
+- Aluminum: 2.7 g/cm³
+- ABS: 1.05 g/cm³
+- Brass: 8.5 g/cm³
+- Titanium: 4.5 g/cm³
+- Nylon: 1.14 g/cm³
+
+### Error Handling
+All functions include:
+- Parameter validation
+- Try-catch with fallback
+- User-friendly error messages
+- Console logging for debugging
+
+### Async Pattern
+All heavy operations are async:
+```javascript
+try {
+  const result = await meshModule.reduce(meshId, options)
+} catch (error) {
+  console.error('[Mesh] Error:', error.message)
+}
+```
+
