Figures come from the standard's tables and formulas, read_ifc_overview — CALL THIS FIRST, as soon as the user gives you a token - a link thenewengineer.com/ia/XXXX pasted in the conversation - BEFORE you answer anapply_ifc_rules — Turn what you read in the overview into rules the tool replays on EVERY piece of the model, including the ones you were never shown. NOT NEEread_ifc_networks — DETERMINISTIC: networks come from geometry, not from a guess. The same model always gives the same networks, from any AI, on any day. Read tname_ifc_networks — Apply the names you propose, and get back the updated report. THE NAMES ARE YOURS, THE NETWORKS ARE NOT. You are naming what the tool measurtrace_duct_circuits — THE CIRCUITS THE FANS OF A MODEL ARE SIZED ON, found without anyone clicking and computed on the pressure-drop page, where the user confirmsopen_ifc_upload — Show an upload box in the conversation where the user can drop an IFC file (.ifc) of a building services model (HVAC, plumbing, heating). Thifc_upload_result — Where the upload stands. When `state` is `depose`, `token` is the token to pass to read_ifc_networks.Not tested by KitScout yet. When our harness runs it, pros, cons and the tasks we tried appear here, with the date and evidence.
