Engine tests drew the same rectangle, square, L-shape and arc part in
private helpers across the Expander, golden-layout, fill-stack and
fixed-strategy tests. They now use TestDrawingFactory; files whose
helper had its own default size keep a one-line wrapper for it.

Private copies of tolerant box containment, box union, vector rotation and
the cutout proposals' coordinate-range check now use one helper each:
BoundingBox.IsWithin and BoundingBox.Union, Vector.Rotate, and
CutoutCoordinates.WithinRange. Tests pin the helpers bit-for-bit against
frozen copies of the removed bodies. No behavior change.

Equal-cost plans break ties by the largest edge offcut, from any of the
four edges. A caller that wants the leftover off one way, such as a
shop that keeps only end drops, or a benchmark scoring the used sheet
height, had no way to say so. On the converted Nestbolt jobs the
extended Irregular search then found plans whose larger offcut is a
strip down the side, which Nestbolt scores as worse: b-blaz1-strip
3.601 -> 3.867, b-shirts-strip 2.674 -> 2.995.
NestJobOptions.OffcutCut (a CutOffAxis, default null) counts only the
strips one cut along that axis frees, for salvage credit and the
compactness tie-break alike: Horizontal the full-width bottom and top
strips, Vertical the full-length sides. PlateRemnant.LargestOffcut takes
the axis; NestJobCost, the time limit and clamp-removal recovery pass
it on. Unset, nothing changes.
Benchmark manifests accept "offcutCut": "horizontal" or "vertical".
With horizontal, one CPU, 20 s limit, Default:
b-blaz1-strip 3.934 -> 3.333
b-shirts-strip 2.995 -> 2.610
m-box-deep 1.918 -> 1.276 (Nestbolt 1.251)
Manifests accept only the words horizontal or vertical (any case); a
list such as "horizontal,vertical" is rejected. PlateRemnant rejects an
undefined axis. Fixed strategies keep their own no-salvage tie-break
and ignore the option; desktop, Console and MCP do not offer it yet.
Mutation reds: 14/14 (offcut-mutations.py).
The repo mixed variants such as center/centre and color/colour, so a
name could be spelled either way and searches missed half the hits.
Standardize on the US spelling, matching .NET's own APIs (Color, Center).
Wire values owned by other systems keep their spelling: the material
ledger's "Cancelled" hold status and GitHub's "cancelled" job status.
No behavior change beyond the spelling of a few status messages.

FillItem_WithClampZones has flipped between two digests because each was
correct for the machine that pinned it. PairFiller sized its parallel
batches from Environment.ProcessorCount, and a batch shares the best count
and work area from before it, so core count decides which candidates are
tried. With 10+ logical processors candidate 9 runs before the area shrinks
and its 46-part layout wins for every comparer (9BF5FC7FC47364A9); with 8 or
fewer the area has shrunk, it can only reach 45, and Fill/Strip and Vertical
Remnant settle on different 45-part ties. 40 of the parts are kept either
way. So the same nest differed between shop PCs, and CI failed whenever the
digests were pinned on a 12-thread desktop.
Fix the batch at 8, which keeps the pins CI has always produced. Also claim
GridDedup keys in candidate order before the parallel loop: the claim was a
race inside a batch, seen as one candidate returning 42 parts and then 33
in the same process.

On a plate with clamps, MaterialsTooClose measured gaps on polygons faceted
at 0.001, which understate an arc gap by more than the 0.0005 slack. A pair
interlocked exactly at the spacing read as too close, so FillGroup discarded
every copy and the fill silently placed nothing. Confirm the gap on
NativeContours, as the layout check and pre-post review already do.

0719476 re-pinned the Fill, Strip and Vertical Remnant clamp-zone
characterization digests to 9BF5FC7FC47364A9, but that layout never
reproduced: CI and local Linux runs at that commit and since give the
previous digests unchanged, so Cross-platform tests has failed on every
push since. Clamp clearance defaults to the bottom edge spacing, which
these plates already used, so their layouts were never expected to move.
Checked the produced layouts before restoring them: all four strategies
place 40 parts inside the work area with no NestLayoutCheck violations
against the clamp clearance.
A clamp rail can now carry its own Clearance, the gap parts keep from
every clamp footprint, independent of part spacing. Unset, it keeps the
sheet's bottom edge spacing as before. Clamp blocks drawn under the
sheet can use close to zero so the laser only stays off them.
Plate.ClampClearance and NestPlateStock.ClampClearance resolve it once;
the engines, interactive fill/pack/push, the layout check, Expander walls
and automatic cut-off placement all read it. The interactive push now
holds clamps at their square clearance keep-out (the layout check's
shape) instead of the part spacing, so parts no longer tuck into its
corners; the clamped fill characterization digests are re-pinned after
checking the new layouts validate.
Persisted as an optional `clearance` on the .nest clamp rail and the
machine clamp settings; edited in Nest > Clamps and the machine's
Clamps tab.

PlateFillService throws for a plate with a sheet outline, but the desktop
swallowed it: Fill (Ctrl+F) caught every exception and showed nothing, and
Fill Area's async void either completed silently or let it escape.
PlateFillService.Refusal(plate) names the reason, and every caller checks
it first: Fill and Fill Area put it in the status bar and add nothing,
Pattern Tile offers a new plate only, the MCP fill/pack tools return it as
an Error result, and the console exits 2 with it unless --autonest is given.

NestPlateStock carries the outline; its usable material (less obstacles,
eroded by the largest edge spacing) becomes the FrontierPacker's
PackBoundary. The layout check and the runner's candidate validation
reject a part outside the outline or over an obstacle, area-based cost
and the area budget use the material area, salvage credits nothing, and
Rectangles, Circles, FlatBar and the fill strategies place nothing on it.

CutoutPackerProposal runs the Irregular engine's FrontierPacker on one
hole, frame-local, with the hole as its boundary and already seated
inserts as obstacles, for all six strategy variants; every pose is
certified with NestLayoutCheck.Clears against the frame, the occupants
and the other poses, and the variant seating the most copies wins, ties
going to the tighter layout. CutoutRouter keeps that proposal over the
lattice-and-NFP one when it seats more copies, or the same number more
compactly, so the pre-pass gets it on every non-round hole.
Two copies of a bar in a frame window, which the lattice never tried and
the sampled NFP search scattered across the window (one at the inner
fit's centre), now stand together against one wall. The test rebuilds
that frame and bar from embedded G-code; the residual-accounting
pipeline tests use a hole that holds one insert so their second copy
stays an ordinary requirement.

The cutout pre-pass offered lattice/NFP inserts only when they had no
cutouts at all, so a strap with 0.25" bolt holes was never tried in a
frame's window. On N26-264 that left both PT11s loose on the sheet and
Rectangles' staggered PT10s won, although both PT11s fit one PT10's end
window. Holes matter only if another part could land in them, so a part
whose every cutout is smaller in area than the job's smallest outline is
now an ordinary insert; proxies and parts with usable holes stay out.

FillItem_WithClampZones_PinnedLayout (Fill, Strip, Vertical Remnant) has
failed in the Engine.Tests CI job on every push since it was added in
ccd361d: the pinned digest 9BF5FC7FC47364A9 is not reproducible at that
commit or any later one, locally or on GitHub runners. The engine
deterministically yields 9B3EFF9B72243576 (Fill, Strip) and
039C0D607166D805 (Vertical Remnant) at ccd361d, 36c8de8 and master, so the
later filler consolidation is still layout-neutral for these cases.
Before repinning, all four strategies' layouts were checked: 40 parts, all
inside the work area, bounding boxes clear of both clamps, and no
overlapping parts.

DefaultPlateNester, StripPlateNester and RemnantPlateNester differed only
in the filler they built. They are replaced by one internal PlateNester
over a Func<Plate, PlateFiller>, which keeps the old Place exactly:
restricted rotation goes to OrderedPlateNester, and each trial gets a fresh
private plate and filler.
PlacementStrategies maps Fill (and its legacy "Default" alias), Strip and
both Remnants to a filler policy and layout. PlateNesterFactory reads it
case-sensitively and PlateFillService ignores case, as before; each keeps
its own error type and message. Nothing outside the Engine and its tests
used the three public nester types, so they are removed.
No layout changes: all 29 fill-stack pins pass with the pin file untouched.

DefaultPlateFiller becomes PlateFiller(plate, policy, layout); PlateFillerBase
and StripPlateFiller are gone. PlateLayout.FillThenPack is the old
orchestrator path (Fill and both Remnants); PlateLayout.Strips is the old
StripPlateFiller.Nest, and Strip is Fill policy plus Strips layout.
Lifetimes are unchanged: a strip-layout filler runs every Fill, group Fill
and PackArea on a fresh inner filler and gives each strip fresh remnant
fillers, so learned angles and PlateNumber never leak into them. The
comparer, preferred direction, trim axis and angle recording now read the
policy directly. The base class's unsorted two-angle BuildAngles is dropped:
only DefaultPlateFiller's pipeline called BuildAngles, and Strip never ran it.
Layout-neutral: all 29 FillStackCharacterizationTests pins pass unchanged.

Fill, Vertical Remnant and Horizontal Remnant are now three values of an
internal PlateFillPolicy that DefaultPlateFiller takes (Fill by default),
replacing RemnantPlateFiller and RemnantFillPolicy. The policy holds the
comparer factory, preferred direction, trim axis and angle mode; the
remnant angle mode still replaces the angle builder outright, and the
public FillPolicy that strategies read is unchanged. Layout-neutral: the
fill-stack characterization pins pass unchanged.

NestLayoutCheck rejected Fill layouts whose interlocked arcs sat exactly
at the part spacing: its SpacingOutline circumscribes arcs by up to 0.001
each, more than the 0.0005 slack, so facing arcs overlapped. The runner's
placement validator measured inscribed 0.001 polygons instead and so
accepted gaps up to ~0.002 under the slack.
Both now find candidates with SpacingOutline and confirm them on
NativeContours, the native contours flattened at a twentieth of the slack
(moved out of PartSpacingReview, which keeps using them). The runner calls
NestLayoutCheck.KeepsSpacing, the same outline, tie rule and
confirmation, so the two validators accept exactly the same pairs.
Clears stays unconfirmed and stricter for engine certification. No
tolerance changed.
FixedStrategyEngine_IrregularJob pins now assert LayoutAssert.Valid with
unchanged digests; the NativeU 70-part grid's 28 reports were the same
cause and its test now requires none.

BestFitFinder gathered each rotation strategy's candidates, and PairEvaluator
gathered evaluated results, in ConcurrentBags, so their order depended on which
worker finished first. The stable area sort then broke equal-area ties in that
arbitrary order, and fills, which try candidates in order and keep the first of
equal layouts, could nest the same parts differently between runs.
Both now fill index-addressed slots: candidates keep rotation-angle and
slide-offset order, results keep candidate order, and ties break the same way
every run. The candidates produced and their scores are unchanged.
The Strip whole-job pin in FillStackCharacterizationTests is re-pinned
(A66602F707290A36 -> FD03A4529D37E32C). That job ties between best-fit
pairs; the old pin recorded whichever tied pair the bag happened to return
first. The new layout places the same 26 parts, passes LayoutAssert.Valid
and gave the same digest in five separate test processes. The other 28
pins are unchanged.

StripPlateNester sent every request to the strip fills, which try two
classification angles and ignore rotation bounds. With a fixed or bounded
rotation at quantity above one they proposed forbidden poses, the job
validator threw "Candidate rotation is not allowed for the requirement."
and the whole Strip job failed. Strip now uses the same guard as
DefaultPlateNester and hands such plates to OrderedPlateNester.

Characterization digests for the interactive PlateFillService surface and
the fixed-strategy whole-job engines on L-shaped, notched, arc, bar and
chevron parts: single-item fills, whole-plate nests (including one where
learned angles change the layout, guarded by a full-sweep comparison),
fills beside clamp zones, and one job per Fill/Strip/remnant engine.
They let the planned filler/nester consolidation be shown layout-neutral.

Every whole-job engine chooses among the offered stock sizes, and on the
synthetic benchmark nests Default matched or beat StockLadder on all 18
runs (saved sizes, a six-size pool, with and without salvage credit),
costing 30-40% less in total with mixed sizes. Its sheet-swap step never
produced a win over Irregular's tail re-plan.
The registry maps "StockLadder" to Default so saved selections, scripts
and API requests keep working. OrderedPlateNester stays: Fill and the
remnant strategies use it for restricted rotations, and its golden layout
is now pinned through NestJobRunner with the parts requested largest
first, as StockLadder requested them.

Auto Nest's Stock Options gets a Load from ledger button that reads the nest
material's free sheets and drops from MaterialLedger's API-key-protected
GET /api/stock/opennest. Ledger rows are request-local: the engine sees them as
ordinary NestPlateStock rows with ledger:{n} ids and finite quantities, and they
are never written to Nest.PlateOptions.
- OpenNest.Data/MaterialLedger: settings file, read-only client (X-Api-Key,
5 s timeout, closed LedgerStockResult set) and LedgerStockMapper (bundles and
sheets one row each, same-size drops grouped with ordered item codes, unknown
shapes and too-small items skipped, inch/mm conversion).
- Options: MaterialLedger URL and API key (DPAPI, CurrentUser) with Test.
- Auto Nest grid: Use, Qty and Source columns for every row; PlateOption gains
request-local Quantity and Id, which NestStockBuilder passes to the engine.
Ledger rows score by area; hand-typed costs stay saved.

Without salvage credit (desktop Auto Nest on a single plate size) every
complete one-sheet layout costs the same, so engines kept whichever layout
came first. N26-23S nested 27.86" long when turning two parts fits it in
21.3".
NestJobCost.CompactnessOffcut measures the largest full-width/full-length
edge offcut as salvage does, whatever the salvage rate. Default and Circles
(CandidateScore), Rectangles and Circles sheet choice (SheetByStock) and
Irregular sheet and plan ranking use it only after cost, so no cost changes.
Sheet-level keys round to 1e-6 to keep ties platform-independent.
Rectangles layout digests are re-captured: each changed fixture keeps its

Roslyn duplicate scans found the same code copied across layers:

the remote clients share NestServerHttp (JSON options, If-Match,

- WinForms: five paged lists share BrowsePager for loading text,
navigation, sort glyphs and failure messages. The Add Drawings to

browse sessions.
- Server: NestQueryRequest reuses DrawingLibraryRequest's helpers;
revision history queries share count and paging binds.
- Engine: RemnantPlateNester delegates to DefaultPlateNester;
CuttingPlanService reuses JointCuttingPlanSearch.Map.

Auto Nest no longer draws parts on the plate view before they are kept:
its result is a set of sheets, possibly of several sizes, not parts on the
current plate. Ghost parts stay with interactive Fill and remnant tools.
- NestJobStage.PlanImproved carries an engine's best whole-job plan so far;
Irregular reports one whenever a variant or the tail re-plan beats it.
- NestPipeline adds PlanSheets: the plan on detached drawings built from
the job geometry (with the caller's names and colors), so previews never
touch caller drawings or quantities.
- SheetStripControl draws every sheet side by side at one scale, repeats
once with their count, captioned with size, parts and utilization.
- The progress window shows "Best plan so far"; a review window shows the
final sheets, totals, cost summary and unplaced parts before commit.

A 67-drawing, 118-part job took about six minutes through the desktop
Auto Nest path and was cancelled before any layout appeared. Almost all
of it was the cutout pre-pass, the rest the Irregular engine.
Cutout pre-pass (317 s -> 8 s on that job, same bundles and poses):
- The lattice and NFP searches prepare the frame's and the occupants'
validation outlines once per search (NestLayoutCheck.Prepare) instead
of re-outlining and re-triangulating the frame at every candidate, and
test candidates against the small occupants before the frame. Answers
match the pairwise check exactly, including its leftmost-inflated rule.
- A hole's proposal is replayed for the same frame, hole and offered
inserts: automatic-rotation inserts ask the same question at every
frame angle.
Irregular engine (40 s -> 15 s, benchmark 42 s -> 19 s, same layouts):
- Concave no-fit polygons are built as the union of pairwise convex sums
of each footprint's convex pieces (ear clipping plus Hertel-Mehlhorn
merging on the Clipper lattice) instead of n*m edge-pair quads; a
footprint that cannot be decomposed keeps the old sweep.
- Pair and block catalogs share one private drawing per part geometry,
owned by the engine instance, so each part's best-fit search runs once
per instance and across a pipeline's trial and ordinary solves.

Dropping the parts that land on a clamp suits small parts, which fill the
gaps between clamps. Large parts often do better if the fill area stops
short of the clamps. The rows still fit, and no part is lost on a clamp.
When every clamp in the fill area lies on one edge, interactive Fill now
also fills the area with that edge moved just past the clamp keep-outs,
as a larger edge spacing would. It keeps whichever layout the strategy's
comparer ranks better, and a tie keeps the dropped-parts layout. Clamps
on more than one edge skip the comparison. The second fill reuses the
cached best-fit pairs. While it runs, a preview counts as the new best
only when it beats the first layout, so the preview never gets worse.

Interactive Fill on a plate with clamps used to split the plate into
clamp-free rectangles and fill each one separately. It showed no progress,
so Accept did nothing until the end, and Stop discarded the result. Packing
around the clamps also tends to give a worse layout than losing the few
parts that land on them.
FillItem and FillGroup now fill the area as if there were no clamps. They
then drop each part that enters a clamp keep-out or sits too close to an
existing part, using the same check as before. For a multi-part group, the
whole copy is dropped when any member fails. Progress previews are filtered
by the same check, so a layout accepted early is clamp-clear. A quantity
request that loses copies asks for that many more, up to two more times.
Pack and whole-plate Nest still pack only into the clamp-free areas.

Circles packs every part as its minimum enclosing circle at centers tangent
to two of the work-area walls, placed discs and clamp keep-outs, bottom-left
and left-bottom, with hexagonal and square lattice seeds. It bids only when
every part fills at least 0.8 of its enclosing circle and otherwise returns
everything unplaced at once. Default runs it as a third candidate.
Rectangles' sheet-by-sheet stock loop moves to NestingEngines/SheetByStock
(Rectangles output unchanged) and Default's candidate scoring and commit
forwarding become shared helpers. Circles also runs the whole job preferring
each offered stock and keeps the best result. Contract tests take shapes an
engine can override.
Synthetic round jobs, salvage-credited: Circles wins or ties all six with
valid layouts; Default cost falls about 4% versus Irregular alone.

The cutout prepass now bundles frames smallest first, so a larger frame's
round cutout can take a ring part or an earlier bundle as one insert through
the circle packer: a flange holds a washer that holds a smaller washer that
holds a slug. Chains stop at four parts deep. Lattice and NFP proposals never
take these inserts, since they could seat a part in a ring's bore.
Expansion and released demand recurse, so placed order cuts innermost first
at every level and an unplaced outer frame returns its whole chain to demand.

Add CutoutCirclePacker, a circle-in-circle proposal for the cutout
router. When a cutout is one circle and every insert fills at least 0.8
of its enclosing circle, it packs the inserts largest first at centers
tangent to the wall or placed discs, trying a center-out pass (a single
insert sits concentric) and a wall-first pass (optimal counts for up to
nine equal discs). Every pose passes NestLayoutCheck.
The router runs it first and skips the lattice and NFP searches when it
places all demand; otherwise the higher count wins and existing
proposals keep ties. On synthetic disc jobs the prepass drops from
minutes to seconds and places as many or more inserts.

A tabbed cutout's slug stays attached while the sheet is cut, but nesting
saw a closed hole and could place parts inside it. Nesting and layout paths
now read material through NestingMaterial.ForNesting, which drops closed
contours with tab spans so the slug counts as part. That covers part
outlines and collision lines, the cutout router, fill expansion, best-fit,
NestLayoutCheck and the GPU bitmaps. Area, overlap diagnostics and cutting
keep the hole, and programs without tabs read exactly as before.

NestPipelineResult.Unplaced lists each requirement's unplaced copies with a
typed NestUnplacedReason, counted from the returned placements: no stock fits
at the sampled rotations, reserved in a cutout of an unplaced frame, stock

Auto Nest, Console --autonest and MCP autonest_plate/autonest_job report them;

NestPipeline.Run now bundles parts that fit other parts' enclosed cutouts
into their frames before the selected engine, for desktop, Console, MCP and
API alike. A valid complete bundled trial is kept; a refused trial falls back
to the ordinary solve (reason on RefusedCutoutTrial), and an incomplete trial
is compared with it, keeping whichever valid proposal places more. An
incomplete but valid trial is now keepable like any incomplete result.
Expanded sheets list each frame's inserts before the frame, so the committed
order cuts every insert before the cutout that releases its slug.

Circumscribing every arc holds all material along convex arcs but drops a
sliver along concave ones (a notch), so a tiny clamp 6e-7 into the material
beside a notch read as clear. Tiny-clamp checks now test the part flattened
both ways (all arcs inscribed, all arcs circumscribed): along any arc one of
the two holds the real material, so together they find every real overlap.
PM 407f5eb7-329f-41e4-947e-64ad52aa4034 (delta review s6-delta2-review.md)
Fine inscribed flattening still let a native arc cut 6.2e-7 into a 1e-5
clamp unseen: less than one chord's sag, so the layout check, interactive
fill and Check Overlaps all called it clear. Tiny-clamp checks now
circumscribe perimeter arcs and inscribe cutout arcs (lines stay exact), so
the polygons hold every bit of real material. Any real overlap is reported;
the cost is a possible report within the tolerance of an arc, never a false
clear. The analyzer builds the same polygons instead of a second
OverlapMaterial read.
PM 407f5eb7-329f-41e4-947e-64ad52aa4034 (delta review s6-delta-review.md)
Recovery only tried contiguous runs of clamps, so a part with a notch over
a middle clamp had all three clamps removed although the two outer ones
were enough (D8: 'the fewest clamps that let it fit'). One probe per clamp
now finds the clamps every removal must include (a part that cannot fit with
only that clamp left needs it off; removal is monotone), and the search
tries every set by size, mandatory clamps plus the optional ones nearest the
origin first. Full-sheet parts resolve with one probe per clamp.
PM 3df03af2-35a6-49c2-9082-fc6208f5b708
The tolerance-free rectangle test was fed approximated material: the layout
check passed it the 1e-4-grid validation outline (a strip of real material
that wholly contains a 1e-5 clamp could vanish), and interactive fill and
the overlap check passed 0.001 inscribed arc chords (a clamp inside a disk
but outside its chords read as clear). All three now flatten the native
contours at a quarter of the clamp's smaller side, lines kept exact, so the
arc-chord sliver can never hold the clamp. Ordinary clamps are unchanged.
PM 407f5eb7-329f-41e4-947e-64ad52aa4034
Offering several identical sheets (same size, spacing and clamps) multiplied
every feasibility probe, so eight full-sheet parts on four 48x120 options
with the eight-clamp rail spent the 1000-probe budget and recovered nothing
although each part fits with its clamps removed. A probe's answer is now
reused for the same part, engine and physically identical stock.
Delta review (s3b-delta-review.md) policy gate 3; PM 0e655fdb-a99a-40d8-968a-1863d8068c3e
Each blocked requirement was tied to the one stock where it needed the
fewest removals; once that stock's finite pool ran out the part stayed
unplaced even with another offered stock untouched. Recovery now runs in
rounds: a blocked part with demand left takes its best removal among the
stocks it has not tried that still have sheets (that stock's own minimal
run, C11). A variant used in several rounds stays one stock entry.
PM bf4438ac-929a-405f-ba26-fcfaa9b1c55e
SyncClampZones returned early when the empty target already held exactly the
solved reduced zones, and otherwise preferred the target's own rail over the
stock's, so a removal committed onto such a sheet kept no rail, removed ids
or time. The stock's rail now wins, and the rail/removal state is reconciled
even when the zones themselves need no replacement.
PM 60f7a673-455e-4a87-b865-a4806f417ee6
Recovery searched every contiguous clamp run per blocked part and stock with
whole-engine solves and no bound: 25 parts on four 20-clamp stocks cost
21,025 extra solves even though none could fit at all. Each stock is now
first probed once with every clamp removed (dismissing stock the part cannot
use and choosing the lanes worth asking); the run search goes size by size
across the remaining stock and stops at the first fit; and one recovery may
spend at most 1000 probe solves, after which it keeps the ordinary result.
PM 0e655fdb-a99a-40d8-968a-1863d8068c3e
Phase 2 offered every removal variant to all residual demand in one solve,
each variant as unlimited stock. A sheet could take more clamps off than its
own parts needed (C11), and a finite pool could yield extra physical sheets
(C12). One root cause, one repair: each variant is now solved separately,
fewest removals first, with its own blocked parts plus unblocked residual
demand; a sheet is kept only when it holds a part that needed exactly that
removal; kept sheets come out of the base stock's remaining pool and the
plate cap. The expanded job reduces each finite base by what its variants
took, so validation sees the true inventory. Variants are cloned from the
exact sheet-frame zones instead of a translate round trip.

Last-resort removal treated the selected engine's failure to place a lone
part as proof it could not fit with the clamps in place. Rectangles packs
bounding boxes, so a concave part whose material clears a clamp lost that
clamp for nothing (C10). A part now counts as blocked only when the caller's
engine, Irregular (true material, NFP) and Rectangles all fail on every
offered stock; Default already runs both lanes.

Last-resort removal ran on any clamped stock, but only a rail-following
plate can record which clamp to pull and its removal time: an explicit-zone
target lost the instruction entirely. NestPlateStock now carries the rail its
zones were resolved from (NestStockBuilder, DrawingJobMapper.FromPlate);
recovery removes clamps only from rail-backed stock, and commit falls back to
the stock's rail when the target plate has none. Runs are now ordered by
distance from the origin along the edge, not by zone list order.

A throwing feasibility probe or residual solve inside last-resort clamp
removal propagated out of NestPipeline.Run and discarded the usable ordinary
proposal. Recovery is optional: any non-cancellation failure now returns no
recovery; cancellation still propagates.

InteractiveClamps.MaterialInKeepOut flattened a sub-tolerance keep-out with
the 0.001 polygon tolerance and called a part covering a 1e-5 clamp clear,
so the fill safety net could pass it. Keep-outs below the tolerance now use
KeepOutOverlap. Adds the 1e-5 zone sweep through every fill strategy and a
push (characterization; both already stay clear).
PM b0062c73-40ef-440e-8efb-b94908f7c2d1
A clamp zone smaller than the validation outline tolerance went through
ClipperBridge.OffsetForValidation, collapsed to a null outline and made
NestLayoutCheck (and Default scoring) throw. The keep-out is now an exact
four-vertex ring, and a keep-out below 0.001 on either axis is judged by a
tolerance-free rectangle test (KeepOutOverlap): positive-area overlap only,
hole-aware, never a silent clear. Tolerances are unchanged.

NestPlateStock is documented as immutable input, but ClampZones handed
out its own zones, whose bounds are mutable. Editing one after the
stock was built moved the stock's clamp while plates materialized from
the stock (layout check, fill, posting) kept the original zone, so a
part or cut on the moved clamp validated and posted clear.
Return detached copies on every read, so the stock and its plates can
never disagree. Copies keep the exact bits; engine results are
unchanged.
