Create Quote

Cost/margin snapshot behind a tube quote, for audit and calibration.

Persisting this with the quote is what lets predicted material/machine numbers be compared against factory actuals later.

Complete manufacturability result for one quoted configuration.

Customer-safe design metadata embedded in quote responses.

Pricing needs the analyzed geometry, but callers do not need database ownership fields, anonymous bearer tokens, or internal storage paths. A serialized quote can therefore be sent back to /quotes/calculate without carrying any of those secrets.
