TOOL_PACKS=all (default) | comma list of core,pid. core is everything not
claimed by another pack and can never be dropped; unknown entries are
ignored with a warning. Pack hiding composes with TOOL_PROFILE=lean (the
lean set now carries pid_symbol_insert / pid_line_draw / pid_graph, 50
tools) and ENABLE_3D. system_about reports {enabled, available, ignored};
cad_batch's unknown_tool rejection names the TOOL_PACKS gate.

Tool count 131 -> 154; 474 -> 1242 collected tests.
The release exists for two measured reasons. A 149-tool catalog costs a client
~40,300 tokens before it has asked for anything, and a drafter searching the way
drafters think -- FILLET, BPOLY, QSELECT, WBLOCK -- scored df=0 against the stock
index, because those words were simply not in the data.
Discovery and batching
- DISCOVERY_MODE=search replaces the catalog with search_tools + call_tool,
ranked over an AutoCAD command and synonym corpus (discovery/aliases.py) on
top of fastmcp's BM25 index. Measured: 40,305 -> 356 tokens advertised.
- cad_batch runs a step list in one round trip; fields= projects result-heavy
responses. The `core` profile is gone -- discovery replaced it.
Honesty debt (Tier 0)
- OCS/ECS: `extrusion` appeared nowhere in this codebase, so mirrored and
rotated geometry reported coordinates that were quietly wrong. backends/ocs.py
translates at the backend boundary; every tool coordinate is WCS on both
engines, and a tilted plane refuses rather than answering with a number that
looks fine.
- drawing_save_as(fmt="dwg") wrote DXF bytes to a .dwg path. drawing_audit never
repaired. analysis_measure_area shoelaced points the caller typed in.
- ezdxf calls gained a per-call timeout, so one hung call can no longer wedge a
server whose document lock is a single asyncio.Lock.
Architecture
- The 1854-line backend ABC is 19 contract modules; @capability(key, reason=)
makes optional methods declarative and a gate fails on undeclared holes.
- 8 layout/viewport tools, CHSPACE, CAD_PROGID escape hatch.
- Wave A: selection filters, boundary tracing, hatch depth, annotation objects,
measurement -- 13 tools of a planned 39. The REGION and 2D-boolean family was
cut on evidence: add_region() yields zero ACIS bytes and the greiner_hormann
substitute loses 28.2% of the area on a square with one semicircular edge.
Verified against a live AutoCAD 2026, which found four COM defects no amount of
reading would have caught -- AcadPViewport has no ViewCenter, and the line that
set it had been swallowed by a bare except since v1.4.
Benchmark v3 (15 tasks) and what it caught
- v2 scored this server 10/10, which carried no information: every task in it
exercised something the server was built around. Five tasks were added because
they can fail, and three did while being written -- a hatch could not be
measured though the refusal listed HATCH as measurable, the boundary tools and
the measure tool disagreed about the same shape (139.2177 vs 139.2699), and a
circle stored as two bulged vertices measured 0.0.
- Competitor reports are NOT re-scored. They are pinned v1.4 runs against v2 and
were never asked these five questions; the chart shows those rows `not run`.
- Correctness A/B: 21/24 -> 24/24, zero regressions.
Performance, stated plainly
The published v1.4 perf report was recorded on CPython 3.14 and the new one on
3.11.15, so the apparent 2-6x speedup is the interpreter, not this release.
Re-measured on one interpreter, v1.5.0 is 28% slower creating entities and 22%
slower on the 10k roundtrip. Fully attributed: EZDXF_CALL_TIMEOUT=0 restores
v1.4.0's exact numbers. That is the deadlock fix being paid for, the knob is
documented, and winning it back is on the 1.6 roadmap.

- TOOL_PROFILE=lean|core|full applied in the lifespan via server-level enable/disable; system_about reports the active profile; opt-in solid_* tools are hidden while ENABLE_3D=false
- layouts: layout_list/create/set_current + viewport_create (scaled model viewports) on both backends; drawing_export_pdf(layout=...); ezdxf uses TILEMODE + active-layout binding, COM switches ActiveLayout and restores it
- ISO 286: engineering/fits.py authored IT4-11 + fundamental-deviation tables (1-500 mm; shafts d..p/h/js, holes D..H/JS) with clear out-of-scope errors; dimension_linear/radius/diameter gained fit= resolved from the measured nominal
- tolerances: DIMTM now signed in deviation/limit modes so double-positive fits (p6 +0.035/+0.022) render correctly; legacy positive-magnitude contract preserved
- solids: solid_box/cylinder/extrude/revolve/boolean native on COM (AddBox/AddCylinder/AddRegion+AddExtrudedSolid/AddRevolvedSolid/Boolean); ezdxf reports the honest solid_3d capability boundary
- capability maps: paper_space native, new viewport_render feature, ENABLE_3D-gated solid_3d
- 60 new tests (profiles, layouts, viewports, layout PDF, fits, gating); version pins in tests now read version.__version__
