Research site context and precedents

Working with AgentReview draft

On this page

Explicitly ask Agent to search and define the question. You can also provide a webpage URL for it to read and summarize.

Define scope

For sites, specify location, boundary and questions. For precedents, specify building type, scale, users or design conditions. Add date requirements when current information matters.

For example: “Find built factory-to-community-space conversions. Compare retained structures and public activity areas; include project and source links.” This gives a clearer comparison than “find good examples.”

Review results and sources

Check the evidence behind each conclusion, then open sources to verify names, locations, dates and approaches. Send a link back with a focused extraction request when more detail is needed.

ContentWhat to verify
Project factsOriginal evidence, dates and consistent definitions
ImagesCorrect project; completed photographs versus renderings or other representations
ComparisonsConsistent criteria and contrary evidence
RecommendationsWhat comes from precedents versus inference about your project

Inaccessible pages, snippets and conflicting sources need further checking before becoming confirmed presentation claims.

Use the research

Select useful evidence and identify what to borrow: spatial organization, materials, circulation or another aspect. Discuss directions using both references and project constraints.

For regulations, provide jurisdiction, building type and purpose; use the relevant code-search capability to check source and scope. General web search is not professional project review.
