Full external code review of v0.10.0 against all math-critical headers (direct source read, not automated scan). Documents 5 open bugs/API errors, 3 test gaps inherited from java-port-audit.md, 1 architectural CI risk, and 5 minor findings. Each finding is self-contained with file+line references, a concrete fix proposal, and acceptance criteria so a new session can pick up any single finding without prior context. Key findings: - FINDING-A (critical): face_energy() wrong for mixed ideal/hyper-ideal configs - FINDING-B (medium): Gauss–Bonnet API conceptually wrong for HyperIdeal - FINDING-C (medium): cotangent formula in euclidean_hessian.hpp header is wrong - FINDING-D (medium): DOF-assignment doc falsely claims "pin before" works - FINDING-E (medium): cp_euclidean gradient_check uses absolute not relative error - FINDING-F/G/H: three open test gaps from java-port-audit.md - FINDING-I (arch): 246/272 CGAL tests not gated in CI Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reviewer meeting materials
A single landing page for the three documents associated with an external-reviewer meeting. The materials are written for a peer who actively publishes in discrete differential geometry — specifically the decorated-DCE / Penner-coordinates / hyperideal-polyhedra / canonical-tessellations research line — and who would potentially use conformallab++ as numerical infrastructure for their own future experiments.
| Document | Audience | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
briefing.md |
the reviewer | one-page orientation: what the project is, where to look first, what we want from them |
questions.md |
the reviewer | the 5 concrete decisions we want their opinion on (skim before the meeting) |
agenda.md |
me | my own meeting playbook: timing, order, the "no" question, post-meeting memo template |
After the meeting, a fourth file 2026-XX-XX-meeting-notes.md should
land here too — the memo template at the bottom of agenda.md is the
suggested structure.
When to send to the reviewer
- briefing.md + questions.md: as part of the meeting-confirmation email, ~5 business days before the meeting. Subject line: "Pre-read for our conformallab++ chat (~15 min)".
- agenda.md: never send. This is internal scaffolding.
Hub-Page durability
The reviewer hub HTML at https://tmoussa.codeberg.page/ConformalLabpp/
is published from doc/reviewer/hub.html in the repo (not from a
detached preview branch). This means:
- Merging any of the open PRs into
maintriggers.gitea/workflows/doxygen-pages.ymlwhich republishes the hub alongside fresh Doxygen HTML — the reviewer URL stays live across merges with no manual intervention. - The hub is source-controlled, so changes are reviewable via PR like any other doc, and old versions live in git history.
- The original Doxygen index moves to
/doxygen.htmlwhenever the hub override is active; both are reachable from the hub itself.
Quick links the reviewer should bookmark
- 🌐 Reviewer-hub landing page: https://tmoussa.codeberg.page/ConformalLabpp/ (the hub shows status badges, a "what's new" banner with the most recent delta, the research-alignment table, and direct links into every document below)
