Regulatory & OperationsOpen Harness Specification

NYC Zoning · Regulatory & Territorial Analysis Harness

Specialized worker harness for high-density regulatory cross-referencing, zoning resolution analysis, bulk/FAR calculations, and cited compliance matrices.

Function & Behavioral Contract

Evaluates parcel parameters and project proposals against versioned zoning resolution tables and regulatory clauses, outputting deterministic compliance matrices with exact section citations.

Controlled Tools, Boundaries & Execution Gates

Authorized Tools:

Versioned statutory section & appendix retriever
Deterministic FAR, setback, and sky-exposure plane calculator
Citation-locked compliance matrix builder

Explicit Operational Limits:

Does not issue legally binding certifications or official municipal filings.
Never extrapolates rules outside the explicitly connected statutory version.
Flags any ambiguous clause or special-permit condition for human review.

Control Gates:

Gate 01: Parcel lot/district identifier & corpus version lock

Gate 02: Section-by-section citation & arithmetic verification

Gate 03: Ambiguity disclosure & evidence package sign-off

Documentation, Schemas & Evaluations
