Build the application

## Build
Evaluate commercial building passive survivability during extreme heat grid outages using EnergyPlus. Simulate indoor temperature drift across zones and formulate actionable, emergency occupancy relocation schedules to maintain human safety.

## User
Building sustainability engineer

## Workflow
1. Ingest building epJSON models, utility outage timeframes, and extreme heat weather files formatted for EnergyPlus.
2. Simulate indoor thermal drift across zones using EnergyPlus with active HVAC cooling systems disabled.
3. Identify specific thermal zones exceeding safe human occupancy thresholds, strictly defined as 30 degrees Celsius.
4. Generate a prioritized evacuation and temporary cooling center routing plan for human review.

## Interface
Thermal drift dashboard mapping building zones against simulated operative temperatures and required evacuation timelines.

## Data
Utilize reference commercial building epJSON files and historical extreme heat weather data formatted for EnergyPlus.
Starter examples below are synthetic. They are not downloaded records.

## Source
[EnergyPlus](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NREL/EnergyPlus/develop/README.md)
Executes EnergyPlus thermal zone simulations to compute hourly operative temperature drift during mechanical cooling failures.

## Tools
pydantic-ai, pandas, numpy.
Enforces strict structured validation on thermal thresholds, evacuation logic, and zone occupancy data.
Fast cloud LLM with strong mathematical and structured reasoning capabilities.

## Deliverables
Submit runnable source, pinned dependencies, setup commands, a working interface, example outputs, and a recorded end-to-end demo. Include tests and an action log.

## Acceptance
- Executes EnergyPlus simulations with HVAC systems disabled to accurately model passive thermal drift.
- Flags any thermal zone mathematically exceeding the 30 degrees Celsius safety threshold during the specified outage window.
- Generates a structured occupancy relocation plan prioritizing zones with the fastest thermal limit breaches.

## Safety
Recommends evacuation plans that must be reviewed by facility managers and emergency response personnel before execution.
Use mock external writes. Require human review before any real deployment.
