Anglepoise lamp: the agent's report (summary)

Round 1. Brief: an anglepoise desk lamp as a rig with three joints, poses and an animation, from the docs alone. The agent's report was not kept verbatim; what follows is the list of friction it raised, as recorded when the fixes were made, and what changed because of it. The program is the agent's, with set pose reading written the way the docs showed (which did not work at the time, see below).

Friction raised

• set pose reading failed with 'reading' is not defined; only set pose "reading" worked, and the docs showed the bare word. Fixed: a bare word after set pose and set focus is the name.
• No --pose flag, and check ignored set pose, so a posed rig's sizes could not be read. Fixed: --pose NAME on render and check, with check printing the posed sizes.
• poses.png and anim_*.png were too small to verify a pose. Fixed: meshed finer and framed from their meshes; a full-size check of one pose is --pose.
• The posed report, sheet title and floor grid used the loose bounds of turned joints. Fixed: they read the surface extent.
• The sign of rotations, the origin of helix (y from 0 to h) and of extrude (centred), and the text profile's padding were undocumented. Fixed: all stated.
• A thin shell wall, text weight or tube radius inside a thick part was never warned about, because bounds cannot see it. Fixed: shapes carry their thinnest feature and check warns from it.
• Small parts were illegible on the sheet. Fixed: --focus.
• Slices of a posed rig cut through the rest pose's centre. Fixed: the slices cut the posed model.
• The bounds after a difference were loose. Documented.
• A worked rig snippet was missing from the skill. Fixed: added.

Not done

• A full-size pose_<name>.png per pose; --pose does one at a time.
