-## Functions
-
-### Fasteners & Hardware
-
-Pre-built fastener shapes and hole helpers. Access via `lib.*`.
-
-#### `lib.boltHole()`
-
-```ts
-lib.boltHole(diameter: number, depth: number): Shape
-```
-
-Through-hole cylinder centered at origin, intended as a cutter (subtract from part).
-
-#### `lib.fastenerHole()`
-
-```ts
-lib.fastenerHole(opts: FastenerHoleOptions): Shape
-```
-
-Standardized metric fastener hole (through-hole/tap drill + optional counterbore/countersink). Returns hole geometry intended as a cutter (subtract from part).
-
-<details><summary><code>FastenerHoleOptions</code></summary>

-
-#### `lib.hexNut()`
-
-```ts
-lib.hexNut(acrossFlats: number, height: number, holeDia: number): Shape
-```
-
-Hex nut via intersection of three rotated slabs with a center bore.

-#### `lib.thread()`
-
-```ts
-lib.thread(diameter: number, pitch: number, length: number, options?: { depth?: number; segments?: number; }): Shape
-```
-
-External thread via twisted extrusion — no SDF grid artifacts. The idea: build a cross-section that's a circle at the root diameter with one trapezoidal bump out to the crest diameter. Then twist-extrude it so the bump traces a helix. Manifold's extrude+twist produces clean structured geometry — quads split into triangles that follow the thread. Returns a threaded cylinder along +Z from z=0 to z=length.

+## Constants
+
+### `lib`
+
+Pre-built parametric parts available in user scripts as `lib.*`. **Details** Every key in this object becomes a method on the `lib` namespace exposed to `.forge.js` scripts. The catalog includes: **Fasteners:** `bolt`, `nut`, `washer`, `fastenerSet`, `fastenerHole`, `boltHole`, `counterbore`, `hexNut`, `holePattern` **Structure:** `tube`, `pipe`, `bracket`, `pipeRoute`, `elbow`, `tSlotProfile`, `tSlotExtrusion`, `profile2020BSlot6Profile`, `profile2020BSlot6` **Threads:** `thread` **Gears:** `spurGear`, `bevelGear`, `faceGear`, `sideGear`, `ringGear`, `rackGear`, `gearPair`, `bevelGearPair`, `faceGearPair`, `sideGearPair` **Utilities:** `explode` Extend this by adding new entries here and registering the corresponding runner binding in `runner.ts`. Sizes outside the supported ranges will throw at runtime with a descriptive error.
+
+- `boltHole(diameter: number, depth: number): Shape` — Simple cylindrical through-hole cutter centered on Z=0. Subtract the result from a part to produce a plain cylindrical clearance hole. For ISO metric sizes with fit classes and counterbore/countersink, use {
+- `fastenerHole(opts: FastenerHoleOptions): Shape` — ISO metric fastener hole cutter with optional counterbore or countersink. **Details** Returns a cutter shape (subtract from a solid to produce the hole). Sizes outside M2–M10 will throw. Extend `METRIC_HOLE_TABLE` in this file to add new sizes. **Example** ```ts const plate = box(60, 40, 8, true) .subtract(lib.fastenerHole({ size: 'M5', fit: 'normal', depth: 8 }) .translate(15, 10, 4)); ```
+- `counterbore(holeDia: number, boreDia: number, boreDepth: number, totalDepth: number): Shape` — Counterbore hole cutter — through-hole with a wider cylindrical recess at the top. Use for socket-head cap screws that must sit flush. Subtract from a solid. For ISO metric sizing and fit classes, prefer {
+- `tube(outerX: number, outerY: number, outerZ: number, wall: number): Shape` — Rectangular hollow tube (thin-wall box section). Both the outer and inner boxes are centered on the XY plane with their base at Z=0.
+- `pipe(height: number, outerRadius: number, wall: number, segments?: number): Shape` — Hollow cylindrical pipe. Centered on the XY plane, extending upward along +Z from z=0 to z=height. For complex routed pipe geometry, see `lib.pipeRoute`.
+- `hexNut(acrossFlats: number, height: number, holeDia: number): Shape` — Generic hex nut with a cylindrical bore. Constructed via intersection of three rotated rectangular slabs, then a bore is subtracted. Centered at origin, height along Z. For standard ISO metric nuts by thread size, use `lib.nut` instead.
+- `bracket(width: number, height: number, depth: number, thick: number, holeDia?: number): Shape` — L-shaped mounting bracket with optional through-holes. Produces a right-angle bracket: a horizontal base plate and a vertical wall. Both legs share `width`. Optional holes are drilled through the base (along Z) and the wall (along Y).
+- `holePattern(rows: number, cols: number, spacingX: number, spacingY: number, holeDia: number, depth: number): Shape` — Rectangular grid of cylindrical hole cutters. Returns the union of `rows × cols` cylinders laid out on a regular grid. Subtract from a solid to produce the full pattern. **Example** ```ts const pattern = lib.holePattern(3, 4, 20, 20, 4, 10); const panel = box(80, 70, 10, true).subtract(pattern.translate(-30, -30, 5)); ```
+- `thread(diameter: number, pitch: number, length: number, options?: { depth?: number; segments?: number; }): Shape` — External helical thread — clean mesh, no SDF grid artifacts. **Details** Builds a cross-section with a single trapezoidal tooth from the root radius out to the crest radius, then twist-extrudes it so the tooth traces a helix. Manifold's extrude+twist produces structured quad-based geometry that follows the thread profile cleanly. Returns a threaded cylinder along +Z from z=0 to z=length. **Example** ```ts const t = lib.thread(5, 0.8, 12); // M5 × 0.8 pitch, 12 mm long ```
+- `bolt(diameter: number, length: number, options?: { ... }): Shape` — ISO-style hex bolt with real helical threads. **Details** The hex head sits from z=0 up to z=headHeight. The shaft extends downward along −Z by `length` mm. An unthreaded shank section is included when `threadLength < length`. Default proportions follow ISO 4762 loosely: pitch ≈ 0.15×diameter, head height ≈ 0.65×diameter, across-flats ≈ 1.6×diameter. For standard M-size bolts pre-configured for a complete joint, use { **Example** ```ts const b = lib.bolt(5, 20); // M5 × 20 mm ```
+- `nut(diameter: number, options?: { pitch?: number; height?: number; acrossFlats?: number; segments?: number; }): Shape` — ISO-style hex nut with a threaded bore. **Details** Constructed from the intersection of three rotated slabs with a cylindrical bore subtracted. The nut is centered at the origin, height along Z. Default proportions follow ISO 4032 loosely: height ≈ 0.8×diameter, across-flats ≈ 1.6×diameter. The bore is a clearance bore (not modelled with helical threads) for rendering efficiency. For standard M-size nuts pre-configured for a complete joint, use { **Example** ```ts const n = lib.nut(5); // M5 nut ```
+- `washer(size: MetricSize, options?: { standard?: WasherStandard; segments?: number; }): Shape` — ISO metric flat washer (DIN 125-A). **Details** Returns a flat ring centered at the origin, thickness along Z. Dimensions are taken from { **Example** ```ts const w = lib.washer('M5'); // DIN 125-A M5 washer ```
+- `fastenerSet(size: MetricSize, boltLength: number, options?: FastenerSetOptions): FastenerSetResult` — Complete ISO metric fastener set — bolt, nut, optional washers, and matching hole cutters. **Details** Returns all geometry for one bolted joint: the bolt, nut, up to two washers, a clearance-hole cutter, and a tap-drill cutter. All shapes are returned **un-positioned** (each on the Z-axis). Place them with `.translate()`. Sizes outside M4–M10 are supported for the washer (M2–M10); unsupported combinations will throw. **Example** ```ts const hw = lib.fastenerSet('M5', 20); const topPlate = box(60, 40, 8, true) .subtract(hw.clearanceHole.translate(15, 10, 0)); const botPlate = box(60, 40, 8, true).translate(0, 0, -16) .subtract(hw.tappedHole.translate(15, 10, -8)); return [ { name: 'Top Plate', shape: topPlate }, { name: 'Bot Plate', shape: botPlate }, { name: 'Bolt', shape: hw.bolt.translate(15, 10, 4) }, { name: 'Nut', shape: hw.nut.translate(15, 10, -19) }, ]; ```
+- `pipeRoute(points: [ number` — Route a pipe (solid or hollow) through 3D waypoints with smooth bends. Each interior waypoint gets a torus-section bend. Straight segments connect them. Returns a single unioned Shape.
+- `elbow(pipeRadius: number, bendRadius: number, angle?: number | { ... }, options?: { ... }): Shape` — Pipe elbow — a curved pipe section (torus arc) for connecting two pipe directions. By default creates a bend in the XZ plane: incoming along +Z, outgoing rotated by `angle`. The bend starts at the origin, curving away from it.
+- `tSlotProfile(options?: TSlotProfileOptions): Sketch` — Build a 2D T-slot cross-section sketch. Default parameters describe a 20x20 B-type profile with slot 6. Use this when you want a drawing-ready profile sketch before extrusion.
+- `tSlotExtrusion(length: number, options?: TSlotExtrusionOptions): Shape` — Build a T-slot extrusion from the generated 2D profile. Extrudes along +Z by default.
+- `profile2020BSlot6Profile(options?: Profile2020BSlot6ProfileOptions): Sketch` — Accurate-ish 2D profile for 20x20 B-type slot 6. Returns a drawing-ready Sketch centered at origin.
+- `profile2020BSlot6(length: number, options?: Profile2020BSlot6Options): Shape` — 20x20 B-type slot 6 extrusion with profile-accurate defaults. Pass option overrides if your supplier's profile differs slightly.
+- `spurGear(options: SpurGearOptions): Shape` — Involute external spur gear with optional center bore. Specify module, teeth, faceWidth as required parameters. Optional tuning includes pressureAngleDeg (default 20), backlash, clearance, addendum, dedendum, boreDiameter, and segmentsPerTooth (default 10).
+- `bevelGear(options: BevelGearOptions): Shape` — Conical bevel gear generated from a tapered involute extrusion. Specify pitchAngleDeg directly or derive it from mateTeeth + shaftAngleDeg.
+- `faceGear(options: FaceGearOptions): Shape` — Face gear (crown style) where teeth are on one face (top or bottom) instead of the outer rim. Uses the same involute tooth sizing as spurGear, then projects the tooth band axially from one side. Alias for sideGear (which is kept for backward compatibility).
+- `sideGear(options: SideGearOptions): Shape` — Crown/face style gear where the teeth project from one side of the disk instead of the outer cylindrical rim.
+- `ringGear(options: RingGearOptions): Shape` — Internal ring gear with involute-derived tooth spaces. Specify rimWidth or outerDiameter for the annular body.
+- `rackGear(options: RackGearOptions): Shape` — Linear rack gear with pressure-angle flanks. Use with spurGear for rack-and-pinion mechanisms.
+- `gearPair(options: GearPairOptions): GearPairResult` — Build or validate a spur-gear pair and return ratio, backlash, and mesh diagnostics. Accepts either shapes from spurGear() or analytical specs for each member. When place is true (default), the gear is auto-positioned at the correct center distance.
+- `bevelGearPair(options: BevelGearPairOptions): BevelGearPairResult` — Build or validate a bevel-gear pair and return ratio diagnostics plus recommended joint placement vectors.
+- `faceGearPair(options: FaceGearPairOptions): FaceGearPairResult` — Build or validate a perpendicular pair between a face gear and a vertical spur gear.
+- `sideGearPair(options: SideGearPairOptions): SideGearPairResult` — Pair helper for side (crown/face) gear + perpendicular "vertical" spur gear. Auto-placement rotates the spur around +Y and positions it to mesh at the side tooth band.
