Major changes:
- Dashboard: WebSocket-based chat with session management
- Dashboard: New chat components (ChatPane, ChatInput, ModeToggle)
- Dashboard: Enhanced UI with parallel coordinates chart
- MCP Server: New atomizer-tools server for Claude integration
- Extractors: Enhanced Zernike OPD extractor
- Reports: Improved report generator
New studies (configs and scripts only):
- M1 Mirror: Cost reduction campaign studies
- Simple Beam, Simple Bracket, UAV Arm studies
Note: Large iteration data (2_iterations/, best_design_archive/)
excluded via .gitignore - kept on local Gitea only.

Major improvements to Zernike WFE visualization:
- Add ZernikeDashboardInsight: Unified dashboard with all orientations (40°, 60°, 90°)
on one page with light theme and executive summary
- Add OPD method toggle: Switch between Standard (Z-only) and OPD (X,Y,Z) methods
in ZernikeWFEInsight with interactive buttons
- Add lateral displacement maps: Visualize X,Y displacement for each orientation
- Add displacement component views: Toggle between WFE, ΔX, ΔY, ΔZ in relative views
- Add metrics comparison table showing both methods side-by-side
New extractors:
- extract_zernike_figure.py: ZernikeOPDExtractor using BDF geometry interpolation
- extract_zernike_opd.py: Parabola-based OPD with focal length
Key finding: OPD method gives 8-11% higher WFE values than Standard method
(more conservative/accurate for surfaces with lateral displacement under gravity)
Documentation updates:
- SYS_12: Added E22 ZernikeOPD as recommended method
- SYS_16: Added ZernikeDashboard, updated ZernikeWFE with OPD features
- Cheatsheet: Added Zernike method comparison table

New E11 Part Mass Extractor:
- Add nx_journals/extract_part_mass_material.py - NX journal using
NXOpen.MeasureManager.NewMassProperties() for accurate geometry-based mass
- Add optimization_engine/extractors/extract_part_mass_material.py - Python
wrapper that reads JSON output from journal
- Add E11 entry to extractors/catalog.json
Documentation Updates:
- SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY.md: Add mass accuracy warning noting pyNastran
get_mass_breakdown() under-reports ~7% on hex-dominant meshes with
tet/pyramid fill elements. E11 (geometry .prt) should be preferred over
E4 (BDF) unless material is overridden at FEM level.
- 01_CHEATSHEET.md: Add mass extraction tip
V14 Config:
- Expand design variable bounds (blank_backface_angle max 4.5°,
whiffle_triangle_closeness max 80mm, whiffle_min max 60mm)
Testing showed:
- E11 from .prt: 97.66 kg (accurate - matches NX GUI)
- E4 pyNastran get_mass_breakdown(): 90.73 kg (~7% under-reported)
