# Integration Status: Parameter Repair + Direct U-Bracket Builder

## Completed Deliverables ✅

### 1. Parameter Repair Service Framework

**File:** `src/solidworks_mcp/ui/services/parameter_repair_service.py` (NEW)

- **Purpose:** Validate and repair incomplete checkpoint parameters
- **Key Components:**
  - `TOOL_PARAM_SCHEMAS`: Dict with 16 tools, required/optional/alias parameters
  - `validate_checkpoint_parameters(planned, tool_name)`: Main validation
  - `attempt_auto_repair(planned, tool_name, context)`: Session-aware auto-repair
  - `build_repair_instruction_text(validation)`: User-readable instructions

### 2. Enhanced Checkpoint Router

**File:** `src/solidworks_mcp/ui/routers/checkpoint.py` (UPDATED)

- **New Endpoints:**
  - `POST /api/ui/checkpoints/validate`: Pre-flight validation + repair suggestions
  - `POST /api/ui/checkpoints/repair`: Accept repaired parameters + re-execute

### 3. Direct U-Bracket Builder Artifact

**File:** `docs/getting-started/tutorials/build_u_bracket_direct.py` (NEW)

- **Purpose:** Complete, deterministic U-bracket build matching sample 1:1
- **Features:**
  - Unwrap adapter layers for direct COM access (offset plane reliability)
  - All 5 feature sequence: Base-Extrude-Thin, Sketch2, Cut-Extrude1
  - Exact coordinates from reference model
  - Auto-fillet handling + blind cut depth
  - Dual export: tutorial + answer key comparison images

### 4. Enhanced Planning Prompts

**File:** `docs/planning/ENHANCED_PLANNING_PROMPTS.md` (NEW)

- **Contents:**
  - System prompt for complete parameter generation
  - User prompt template with U-bracket example
  - Tool parameter reference spec
  - Exact JSON format expectations
  - Parameter completeness rules

### 5. LLM Service Planning Prompt Updates

**File:** `src/solidworks_mcp/ui/services/llm_service.py` (UPDATED)

- **Changes:**
  - Added "TOOL PARAMETER REQUIREMENTS ***CRITICAL***" section
  - Detailed parameter format specification with exact names
  - Execution format specification (tool_name → {params})
  - System prompt updated to enforce parameter completeness
  - Checkpoints now required to include full 'execution' field

---

## Integration Points (Pending Implementation)

### 1. Parameter Validation in Checkpoint Execution

**Location:** `checkpoint_service._run_checkpoint_tools()`
**What to do:**

```python
from .parameter_repair_service import validate_checkpoint_parameters, attempt_auto_repair

# Before script generation:
for tool_name in planned["tools"]:
    validation = validate_checkpoint_parameters(planned, tool_name)
    if not validation.is_valid:
        # Attempt auto-repair using session context
        repaired = attempt_auto_repair(planned, tool_name, context={
            "active_sketch_plane": session_context.get("active_sketch_plane"),
            "last_sketch_name": session_context.get("last_sketch_name"),
        })
        if not repaired.is_valid:
            # Return early with repair instructions
            return {"validation_failed": True, "issues": validation.issues, ...}
```

### 2. Manual Repair UI Workflow

**Flow:**

1. User clicks "Execute Checkpoint" → validation fails
2. Endpoint returns: `{valid: False, repair_instructions: "...", issues: [...]}`
3. UI shows repair instructions + offers "Open Script" button
4. User edits script/checkpoint → submits via `POST /api/ui/checkpoints/repair`
5. Repair endpoint validates again → if valid, re-executes checkpoint

### 3. Direct Builder Testing

**Current state:** Syntax-checked, ready to run
**Test with:**

```powershell
# Once SolidWorks is running:
.\.venv\Scripts\python.exe docs/getting-started/tutorials/build_u_bracket_direct.py
```

**Expected output:**

- Part: `docs/getting-started/tutorial-parts/u_bracket_from_prompt.sldprt`
- Image: `docs/getting-started/tutorial-parts/u_bracket_from_prompt_isometric.png`
- Reference: `docs/getting-started/tutorial-parts/answer_key_bracket_isometric.png`

### 4. Planning Agent Workflow Validation

**Test steps:**

1. Run orchestration: `POST /api/ui/orchestrate/go`
2. Inspect returned checkpoints: `select checkpoint_index, substr(planned_action_json, 1, 500) from plancheckpoint`
3. Verify checkpoints include complete 'execution' field with all parameters
4. Execute checkpoint 1: `POST /api/ui/checkpoints/execute-next`
5. Confirm validation catches missing parameters or accepts complete ones

## Code Snippets for Integration

### Checkpoint Service Integration

```python
# In _run_checkpoint_tools() before script generation:

from .parameter_repair_service import (
    validate_checkpoint_parameters,
    attempt_auto_repair,
    build_repair_instruction_text,
)

planned_tools = planned.get("tools", [])
validation_issues = []

for tool_name in planned_tools:
    validation = validate_checkpoint_parameters(planned, tool_name)
    if not validation.is_valid:
        # Attempt auto-repair
        auto_repair_result = attempt_auto_repair(
            planned,
            tool_name,
            context={
                "active_sketch_plane": meta.get("active_sketch_plane"),
                "last_sketch_name": meta.get("last_sketch_name"),
                "user_goal": meta.get("user_goal"),
            }
        )
        if auto_repair_result and auto_repair_result.is_valid:
            planned = auto_repair_result.repaired_planned
        else:
            validation_issues.append(validation)

if validation_issues:
    repair_text = "\n\n".join(
        build_repair_instruction_text(issue) for issue in validation_issues
    )
    return {
        "validation_failed": True,
        "issues": [issue.model_dump() for issue in validation_issues],
        "repair_instructions": repair_text,
        "script_path": str(script_path),
        "failed_tools": planned_tools,
    }

# Continue with script generation
script_text = _render_checkpoint_script(...)
```

### Router Integration

```python
# In checkpoint router repair endpoint:

@router.post("/api/ui/checkpoints/repair")
async def repair_checkpoint_params(payload: CheckpointRepairRequest) -> dict[str, Any]:
    """Accept repaired checkpoint and re-execute."""
    # Validate repaired parameters
    validation = validate_checkpoint_parameters(
        payload.repaired_planned, 
        payload.repaired_planned["tools"][0] if payload.repaired_planned.get("tools") else None
    )
    
    if not validation.is_valid:
        return {
            "valid": False,
            "message": "Repaired parameters still invalid",
            "issues": validation.issues,
        }
    
    # Store repaired checkpoint
    db_update(
        session_id=payload.session_id,
        checkpoint_index=payload.checkpoint_index,
        executed=False,
        planned_action_json=payload.repaired_planned,
    )
    
    # Re-execute
    return await execute_next_checkpoint(payload.session_id)
```

## Known Limitations & Workarounds

### 1. Face-Picking Reliability

**Issue:** Direct COM face selection can fail on some builds
**Solution:** Direct builder uses offset plane approach (already implemented)

### 2. Sketch Normal Ambiguity

**Issue:** Cut-extrude may flip sketch normal on offset planes
**Solution:** Direct builder implements bidirectional fallback in `create_cut_extrude_direct()`

### 3. Adapter Layer Unwrapping

**Issue:** Parameter repair may need raw adapter COM access
**Solution:** `unwrap_for_method()` helper provided in direct builder; needs wiring into adapter base class

### 4. LLM Parameter Generation

**Issue:** Even with enhanced prompt, LLM may omit numeric geometry
**Workaround:** Auto-repair uses session context + reasonable defaults
**Fallback:** Manual repair workflow with UI editing

---

## Next Action Items

### Immediate (Blocking UX)

1. **Integrate parameter validation into checkpoint service**
   - Add imports to checkpoint_service.py
   - Insert validation before script generation
   - Return repair instructions on failure
   - Wire into result_json DB record

2. **Complete manual repair endpoint**
   - Parse repaired_planned JSON from request
   - Call validation again
   - Store corrected checkpoint
   - Re-execute with validated parameters

### High Priority (UX Enhancement)

3. **Test direct builder with real SolidWorks**
   - Run `build_u_bracket_direct.py` with adapter live
   - Compare output images vs answer key
   - Document any COM quirks discovered

2. **Validate planning agent generates complete parameters**
   - Run full orchestration
   - Inspect checkpoint planned_action_json
   - Verify execution field populated
   - Modify prompt iteratively if needed

### Medium Priority (Robustness)

5. **Enhance auto-repair context clues**
   - Track active_sketch_plane in session metadata
   - Store last_sketch_name from previous checkpoints
   - Use feature tree to infer geometry bounds

2. **Build UI component for repair workflow**
   - Show "Open Script" button for parameter fixing
   - Display repair instructions formatted nicely
   - Allow inline parameter editing + resubmit
