Validation record

Two things cannot be automated and are release gates for any version that changes the unrolling or export path (PRD 13.6):

  • T6 — Handedness. Print a template, wrap it, scribe, cut, and offer the tube up to the one it must meet. This is the only test that can catch a mirrored template, which looks perfect on screen and on paper.

  • T8 — Print fidelity. Measure the calibration rectangle on the printed sheet, across several printer and driver combinations, including both “actual size” and default settings.

Each run is recorded here with photographs, the template PDF, the measured misfit, the add-in version and the Fusion version it was produced with. The L4 live-adapter report from tools/fusion_exec.py is committed alongside it, so there is an auditable record of which Fusion build each release was verified against (PRD 14.4).

Runs

No release has been validated yet. M2 produces a printable template and one has been exported and inspected by a human, but L5 — print it, wrap it, scribe it, cut it, offer the tube up — has not been run, and it is a release gate for any version that changes unrolling or export (PRD 13.6). That is why 0.1.0 is unreleased and untagged. The first L5- entry lands with the first version that passes T6 and T8.

The L4- records below are a different thing and do not wait for a release — each is a re-confirmation of the Fusion API facts in CLAUDE.md section 6 against a named build, so a Fusion upgrade that breaks an assumption is caught against a dated baseline.

The glob is deliberate, and it is one pattern rather than two. A record added here is wired into the documentation tree by the fact of its filename, so sphinx-build -W cannot fail on toc.not_included the next time someone records a run — which is how L4-2704.1.53-2026-09-05.md arrived orphaned. Name files L4-<fusion version>-<ISO date>.md and L5-<add-in version>-<ISO date>.md; both match L*-*.

A separate L5-* pattern would be the obvious way to write this and is a trap: a glob that matches no document is itself a -W failure, so an empty L5-* would fail the docs gate every day until the first L5 record lands.
