Current file inspection governs geometry readiness: expired, unreadable, mismatched, unsuccessfully parsed or uninspected attachments prevent quote-ready status. Reattach the original file and review again. Instant, synchronous engineering review of a physical requirement — nothing is submitted. So the caller can continue in deb8, the answer may carry a continuation: the purpose and the details sent, held under its reference for 24 hours and then deleted, read only by deb8's server when the caller continues there. Purpose prose is preserved as intent but is not silently converted into loads, geometry, environments, interfaces, or acceptance criteria. The versioned engineering_evaluation receipt lists canonical paths and exact checks run, reports not_evaluated when none ran, and denies engineering-validation, certification, physical-truth, supplier-acceptance, and fabrication authority. Its finding-penalty score is not engineering soundness. Deterministic checks: material identification with handbook-typical properties (density, stiffness, yield, service temperature), explicit rectangular beam deflection, nominal bending stress, and nominal transverse shear with requester-defined acceptance criteria, material/process compatibility, tolerance-vs-process reality, quantity economics (e.g. tooling amortization), environment fit (UV, saltwater, food contact, temperature, medical), flexibility fit, post-processing validity, design-file format fit, and specification completeness. Every matched material reference identifies the current table as an uncited compilation and explicitly denies source verification, exact-state verification, design-allowable use, and simulation eligibility. A criterion that depends on that reference remains not_evaluated; its numerical comparison is reference_only, never a pass, failure, or blocker. Every supplied limit or strength basis is labeled requester_assertion, and every criterion verdict is explicitly conditional on declared inputs and the bounded model—not engineering validation or design certification. Returns findings ranked blocker/warning/info, two readiness scores, and a deterministic clarification_plan: compact next_fields, visible remaining_fields, optional CAD accelerators, an intent-only resolution handoff, next_call with the recommended exact MCP/REST continuation, and continuation_options for explicitly eligible operations: design_brief for complete intent without specifications, or budgetary_pricing and supplier_handoff for a complete specification. Examples are shapes, never invented defaults. For a decomposed design, send specification.assembly with parts and interfaces: a2a2p then checks galvanic pairing and interface fit across parts, which a single-part review cannot, and prices each part separately. Two or more explicitly declared parts always classify as assembly_or_system and can never become quote_ready as one part, regardless of purpose wording or top-level part fields. Undeclared interfaces are unchecked — nothing is inferred. CHECK intake_classification first. a2a2p reviews one manufacturable part at a time; a request naming a behaviour rather than an object ("a device that detects and removes debris") is classified capability_concept and redirected to decomposition, because no material or tolerance can be derived from it. The classification is advisory, never blocks, and defers to any supplied specification. READ resolution_readiness, not quote_readiness, while you are still answering questions. quote_readiness is supplier-facing and stays capped by material/process/dimensions/tolerance that a2a2p derives for you, so it cannot reach quote_ready from intent alone however much you supply. resolution_readiness measures only what the requester owns and reaches ready_to_resolve once you have supplied enough to derive a specification — which is not a supplier quote. completeness.awaiting_requester and completeness.derivable_by_resolution say which fields are whose. Accepts the same input as request_physical_solution (structured intent/specification or legacy flat fields). Forward-compatible fields remain accepted, but uninterpreted_fields names every supplied path in the declared review scope whose value did not influence deterministic engineering checks, uses bounded and privacy-safe RFC 6901 JSON Pointers, caps unqualified ready grades, and provides non-inferential repair guidance; never read HTTP success alone as proof that every field was understood. For intent_only, complete requester context leads to submit_for_specification_resolution; for a supplied specification, apply only facts you know, re-review until quote_ready, then submit if a durable resolution is useful. Error results preserve the human-readable error and also return one stable machine code: purpose_required when the physical purpose is absent, or screening_denied when intake screening refuses the request. Modern MCP responses carry the same object in structuredContent. Multi-part input is reviewed and classified here; decomposition_required belongs to downstream one-part pricing and supplier-package gates, not this advisory review.
