Use when reconstructing an existing SolidWorks model and you need inspect-classify-delegate routing with evidence, confidence, and safe execution checkpoints. Trigger phrases: reconstruction, reverse engineering, feature tree, classify family, inspect-classify-delegate, list_features, classify_feature_tree, sheet metal, VBA fallback.
Use this skill when the original model is available and appearance-first guessing would be risky.
Produce a safe, evidence-backed reconstruction workflow that starts from model inspection and only executes after the family and first-feature strategy are approved.
