Build an inspectable model of a real object from the evidence (spec sheets, teardowns, official photos, published test vectors), take it apart, and render a film with designed sound, an interactive viewer and an STL/GLB. Every number is tagged SPEC, MEASURED, DERIVED or ESTIMATED, and a spec whose numbers do not add up is not rendered. Use for exploded views, teardowns, comparisons and explainers of real products or machines (gear trains, key switches, cipher machines, phones, boards).…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Mechanism

Model a real object (hardware or software) from evidence, check the model against what is published, and film it. The point is not a pretty render: it is that every number says where it came from and that a model whose numbers do not close is not rendered.

## Quick start (the eight steps)

1. **Research.** Open the maker's sheet, a teardown, a standard, photos. Keep every URL and the date you opened it. Note what a page refused to show.
2. **Start the object in the user's project** (never in this folder): `node scripts/new.mjs <name> --dir <work> --title "..." --fig "Fig N"` (for example `--dir ./mechanism-work`).
3. **Write `<work>/<name>/spec.js`.** Copy the example closest to the object (see `references/examples.md`; `examples/hub`, `switch`, `lock`, `rtx4090`, `winrar`) and tag every number SPEC, MEASURED, DERIVED or ESTIMATED.
4. **Gate:** `node scripts/check-spec.mjs <work>/<name>/spec.js` until it says PASSES and the verdict says VERIFIED. Prefer checks that measure the drawn model or cross two sources; a unit conversion is reported but does not count (see Verdicts).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add diegolopez0208/mechanism/mechanism@sha256:76462b1418150f67

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.66a67b5, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
