0.1.47: pads and test points are real copper (board-glb copper + check gate, mask and paste from the footprint layers)

AI Flow 0.1.47
From John's rule (2026-10-02): pads and test points are always real copper, and a board render follows the footprints' pad, mask and paste layers rather than ignoring them.
- New verb:
board-glb copper. Afterstep2glb convert, it makes a board GLB right by construction from the.kicad_pcb: the KiCad pad, via and track meshes (found by their layer name, never a material index) get a real copper material with explicit metal and roughness, or the board's stated finish (--finish enig|hasl, or the spec'sfab.finish); the solder mask is rebuilt as the board outline minus every F.Mask / B.Mask aperture (pad shapes grown by their mask margin, mask graphics and zones, untented vias, drill holes, the minimum mask web);--paste solderadds solder only on the F.Paste / B.Paste apertures of fitted parts. Test points, contacts and pins stay bare copper. A STEP exported without pads gets its pads from the F.Cu / B.Cu pad shapes. - New gate:
board-glb check. Refuses pads outside the finish's colour range or left at glTF's default metal and roughness (the cause of the grey, then pale, pads on the buck molecule), a mask over any exposed pad centre, solder on a pad without paste, and a board file whose pads do not line up with the GLB.board-glb copperruns it on what it writes; in a run the result is recorded asboardGlb. - Skills. aiflow-molecule exports the STEP with
--include-pads --include-soldermask(and tracks, zones, silkscreen) and adds "Pads are real copper"; adom-aiflow lists the gate; aiflow-process-video renders only a board GLB that passed it. The flow'smoleculizestep names the verbs. - Tested on the buck molecule: the regenerated GLB passes the gate (58 exposed pads, 14 bare copper) and renders like the hand-fixed one without lifting the pads.

From John's rule (2026-10-02): pads and test points are always real copper, and a board render follows the footprints' pad, mask and paste layers rather than ignoring them.
- **New verb: `board-glb copper`.** After `step2glb convert`, it makes a board GLB right by construction from the `.kicad_pcb`: the KiCad pad, via and track meshes (found by their layer name, never a material index) get a real copper material with explicit metal and roughness, or the board's stated finish (`--finish enig|hasl`, or the spec's `fab.finish`); the solder mask is rebuilt as the board outline minus every F.Mask / B.Mask aperture (pad shapes grown by their mask margin, mask graphics and zones, untented vias, drill holes, the minimum mask web); `--paste solder` adds solder only on the F.Paste / B.Paste apertures of fitted parts. Test points, contacts and pins stay bare copper. A STEP exported without pads gets its pads from the F.Cu / B.Cu pad shapes.
- **New gate: `board-glb check`.** Refuses pads outside the finish's colour range or left at glTF's default metal and roughness (the cause of the grey, then pale, pads on the buck molecule), a mask over any exposed pad centre, solder on a pad without paste, and a board file whose pads do not line up with the GLB. `board-glb copper` runs it on what it writes; in a run the result is recorded as `boardGlb`.
- **Skills.** aiflow-molecule exports the STEP with `--include-pads --include-soldermask` (and tracks, zones, silkscreen) and adds "Pads are real copper"; adom-aiflow lists the gate; aiflow-process-video renders only a board GLB that passed it. The flow's `moleculize` step names the verbs.
- Tested on the buck molecule: the regenerated GLB passes the gate (58 exposed pads, 14 bare copper) and renders like the hand-fixed one without lifting the pads.
