### OpenNest.Engine (class library, depends on Core)
Nesting algorithms with a pluggable engine architecture. `NestEngineBase` is the abstract base class; `DefaultNestEngine` (formerly `NestEngine`) provides the multi-phase fill strategy. `NestEngineRegistry` manages available engines (built-in + plugins from `Engines/` directory) and the globally active engine. `AutoNester` handles mixed-part NFP-based nesting with simulated annealing (not yet integrated into the registry).
- **Engine hierarchy**: `NestEngineBase` (abstract) → `DefaultNestEngine` (Linear, Pairs, RectBestFit, Remainder phases). Custom engines subclass `NestEngineBase` and register via `NestEngineRegistry.Register()` or as plugin DLLs in `Engines/`.
- **Engine hierarchy**: `NestEngineBase` (abstract) → `DefaultNestEngine` (Linear, Pairs, RectBestFit, Remainder phases) → `VerticalRemnantEngine` (optimizes for right-side drop), `HorizontalRemnantEngine` (optimizes for top-side drop). Custom engines subclass `NestEngineBase` and register via `NestEngineRegistry.Register()` or as plugin DLLs in `Engines/`.
- **IFillComparer**: Interface enabling engine-specific scoring. `DefaultFillComparer` (count-then-density), `VerticalRemnantComparer` (minimize X-extent), `HorizontalRemnantComparer` (minimize Y-extent). Engines provide their comparer via `CreateComparer()` factory, grouped into `FillPolicy` on `FillContext`.
- **NestEngineRegistry**: Static registry — `Create(Plate)` factory, `ActiveEngineName` global selection, `LoadPlugins(directory)` for DLL discovery. All callsites use `NestEngineRegistry.Create(plate)` except `BruteForceRunner` which uses `new DefaultNestEngine(plate)` directly for training consistency.
- **Fill/** (`namespace OpenNest.Engine.Fill`): Fill algorithms — `FillLinear` (grid-based), `FillExtents` (extents-based pair tiling), `PairFiller` (interlocking pairs), `ShrinkFiller`, `RemnantFiller`/`RemnantFinder`, `Compactor` (post-fill gravity compaction), `FillScore` (lexicographic comparison: count > utilization > compactness), `Pattern`/`PatternTiler`, `PartBoundary`, `RotationAnalysis`, `AngleCandidateBuilder`, `BestCombination`, `AccumulatingProgress`.
- **Strategies/** (`namespace OpenNest.Engine.Strategies`): Pluggable fill strategy layer — `IFillStrategy` interface, `FillContext`, `FillStrategyRegistry` (auto-discovers strategies via reflection, supports plugin DLLs), `FillHelpers`. Built-in strategies: `LinearFillStrategy`, `PairsFillStrategy`, `RectBestFitStrategy`, `ExtentsFillStrategy`.
