Worth noticing
Joint hard stops are derived by sweeping geometry; unresolved ranges are written as unknown rather than treated as free.

Field notes

The add-in previews the subassembly, joint, and link trees before writing files; unreadable elements become warnings, while closed loops appear as dashed back-edges. Datasheets are plain Python dataclasses tied to CAD part names, and the exporter records where each parameter came from. The visible demonstration uses BAM Robotics’ one-degree-of-freedom test rack; components without datasheets remain explicitly labeled as placeholders.
