# Lighting report observations

> Validate supplied lighting-report observations while keeping inventories separate from nonadditive calculation rows.

## Start with

Supplied inventory and calculation observations with report, room, scene and surface scope.

## What it helps produce

Schema-checked observations and reconciled repeated inventory identities, with calculation results kept separate.

## Available in your setup.

Versions can differ. The overview describes the hosted source; the public release and its instructions are shown separately below.

Arch Studio 1.5.1.2 · MCP — Defined in the hosted release source as an operation contract. Your assistant performs the operation with its own available tools; the hosted connection does not execute it remotely.

Arch Studio 1.5.1.2 · Open source — A helper exists at this source path in the public plugin. Run it only in a compatible local host; its implementation may differ from the hosted version.

## Try a first task.

An example prompt to adapt with your own brief and inputs.

Help me with lighting report observations. Tell me which of your available capabilities you will use, explain the inputs and the proposed operation before proceeding, and say how you will verify the result. If a required capability is unavailable, tell me the concrete limitation.

## Use it in your practice.

Tools are operation contracts: each defines the inputs, rules and required checks of one operation. Your assistant performs it with capabilities available in its workspace. Optional skill-source validation is a separate bounded server operation, not the execution engine for normal workflows.

Provide authorized inputs and the required host capabilities, then review the result before saving or issuing it.

## Make it your own.

Bring your standards, source material and review criteria. Define the expected output and where a person checks the work, then adapt the method as your practice learns. Keep firm-specific instructions in your studio, outside the installed plugin, so updates preserve your work.
