About
Built on the shop floor
This started as a tool to stop redrawing the same cut paths by hand, in a large-format print and cutting operation in Accra.
Every rule in it came from a job. The resolution warning exists because a file arrived measuring 26 dpi at its finished size and no amount of adjustment makes a cut clean on pixels that big. The minimum area exists because a watercolour silhouette traced as nineteen paths and eighteen of them were detached blobs of spatter. The seam bleed exists because a three-panel piece came back with two white slots in it.
It is not a tracing toy. It is the thing we use to get files to the cutter, made available to anyone with the same problem.
What that means for you
Warnings, not blocks. A shop knows when to override. You get told what's wrong and keep the decision.
No proofs you didn't ask for. Production files are what leaves. Proofs when you want them.
Support that has run the job. Ask why a path chattered and the answer comes from someone who has watched it happen.
Where it's going
Kiss-cut for sticker sheets, registration marks for workflows that need them in the file, and the panelling and hole-cutting tools brought onto a screen instead of the command line. If you need one of those sooner, say so — it moves things up the list.
