kernelcad-patterns SKILL.md skillA
kernelcad-patterns from w1ne/kernelcad-web is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add w1ne/kernelcad-web/kernelcad-patterns@git:20260613.15c8fd5Pins git:20260613.15c8fd5 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Mechanical patterns — linear, circular, grid. Use when replicating a sub-feature (hole, rib, fin, tab, spoke) along an axis, around an axis, or across a 2D grid as a single editable unit.
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
# kernelCAD — mechanical patterns
`Shape.patternLinear` / `.patternCircular` / `.patternGrid` produce a single `FeatureRecord` per call — one editable unit, one row in `inspect({ of: 'features' })`, one undo step. The pattern composes the source feature into N instances; instance 0 is the source position.
```ts
// Linear: 5 fins evenly spaced 10 mm along +X
const fin = box(2, 20, 8);
const heatsink = plate.add(fin).patternLinear({ count: 5, direction: [1, 0, 0], spacing: 10 });
// Circular: 6 spokes around the +Z axis
const spoke = rib.patternCircular({ count: 6, axis: [0, 0, 1] });
// Grid: 4x3 bolt-hole array on a plate
const mountBolt = plate.hole('top', { u: 0, v: 0, diameter: 5, depth: 'through', name: 'mountBolt' });
const drilled = mountBolt.patternGrid({
x: { count: 4, direction: [1, 0, 0], spacing: 25 },
y: { count: 3, direction: [0, 1, 0], spacing: 25 },
});
```
## API
```typescript
.patternLinear({ count, direction, spacing }: {
count: number; // integer >= 2
direction: [number, number, number]; // unit-ish; will be normalized
spacing: number; // non-zero finite mm
}): Shape

How to install
mdr add w1ne/kernelcad-web/kernelcad-patterns@sha256:de08d97cf411a8f8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260613.15c8fd5, 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.
