symptomThe DRC gate passes with blocking 0 and unconnected items 0, but the .kicad_pcb left on disk is not the board that passed. Grepping the saved export shows 6 zones and 21746 filled_polygon entries -- the tscircuit fill, i.e. the state DRC rejected before refilling. Gerbers plotted from that file would ship pour fragments and slivers as floating copper.
