plasmid's post in A plane old stuffed cube was marked as the answer
If no one else is going to go after this one... I can give an answer based on, well, working in the spirit of the best solution the program could find. But I can't prove that there aren't any larger squares that can fit in the unit cube.

plasmid's post in I got Charlie's number was marked as the answer
I don't know about everyone else, but I'm stuck.
If the "I" in this problem has information that we (the problem solvers) are not privy to by virtue of the OP, then I could come up with a solution.
If the "I" in this puzzle definitely does NOT have any more information than what's presented, then I am Stuck with a capital S.

The shortest and most intuitive (although least formal) proof of the answer that I can come up with.

plasmid's post in 4 points, 2 lengths was marked as the answer
Without any sort of formal proof, I think that these are all possible shapes. Although I haven't yet fully convinced myself that the last shape I drew actually exists. It seems like it should though.
