Permit & Compliance Review Complete

Step 1.3 -- Permit Type Coverage

Catalog tracked permit types: building, demolition, electrical, plumbing, mechanical/HVAC, fire protection, grading/excavation, zoning/land use, sign, certificate of occupancy, temporary CO, special use/variance, encroachment, right-of-way.

Record: workflow defined (yes/no), inspection linked (yes/no) for each.

============================================================ PHASE 2: BUILDING CODE COMPLIANCE

Step 2.1 -- Code Reference System

Evaluate: code editions tracked (IBC year, state/local amendments), searchable code reference, applicability determination (occupancy type, construction type), amendments tracking (local to model code), code change tracking (edition transitions, grandfathering).

Step 2.2 -- Zoning Compliance

Check: use classification (permitted, conditional, special exception), dimensional requirements (setbacks, height, FAR, lot coverage, density), parking requirements (ratio by use, shared parking, reductions), variance tracking (conditions of approval), overlay districts (historic, flood, environmental).

Step 2.3 -- Accessibility (ADA/FHA)

Evaluate: ADA requirements (accessible routes, parking, restrooms, signage, elevators), Fair Housing Act (covered multifamily), existing building triggers (alteration thresholds, path of travel), accessibility plan review (checklists, dimension verification), post-construction verification items.

Step 2.4 -- Fire and Life Safety

Check: fire protection systems (sprinklers, alarms, standpipes, extinguishers), egress (exit capacity, travel distance, common path, dead-ends), fire resistance ratings (walls, floors, structural, opening protections), hazmat (storage limits, separation), fire department access (fire lanes, aerial access, key boxes, FDC).

============================================================ PHASE 3: ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE

Step 3.1 -- Environmental Regulations

Evaluate tracking of: NEPA/state environmental review, wetlands (CWA Sec. 404), Endangered Species Act, stormwater (NPDES/SWPPP), erosion/sediment control, air quality (dust, emissions), noise ordinance, hazmat/asbestos/lead, underground storage tanks, brownfield (Phase I-II ESA), tree preservation, coastal zone management.

Record: documentation requirements and monitoring approach for each.

Step 3.2 -- Sustainability & Green Building

Check: LEED tracking (credits, prerequisites, documentation), ENERGY STAR (benchmarking, certification), local green requirements (energy code, solar-ready, EV-ready), net-zero/carbon-neutral compliance, building performance standards.

============================================================ PHASE 4: DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT & SUBMITTALS

Step 4.1 -- Plan Management

Evaluate: digital submission (format validation), revision control (versioning, superseded sets, delta marking), distribution (plan holder lists, auto-distribution), review tracking (plan check comments, corrections, resubmission), as-built documentation requirements.

Step 4.2 -- Submittal Management

Check: submittal schedule (spec-linked, responsible party), review workflow (contractor > architect > engineer > owner), status tracking (pending, approved, approved-as-noted, revise-and-resubmit, rejected), lead time tracking, specification reference compliance.

Step 4.3 -- RFI Management

Evaluate: creation (project-linked, drawing/spec reference, priority), routing chain, response tracking (due dates, response time metrics, cost/schedule impact), resolution (formal response, drawing revision), audit trail and aging analysis.

============================================================ PHASE 5: INSPECTION MANAGEMENT

Step 5.1 -- Inspection Scheduling

Evaluate tracking of: foundation/footing, framing/structural, electrical rough-in, plumbing rough-in, mechanical rough-in, insulation/energy, drywall/lath, fire protection, elevator, final/CO inspection, special inspections (concrete, steel, soil).

Record: scheduling method and result recording approach for each.

Step 5.2 -- Inspector Coordination

Check: scheduling (online request, calendar integration, time windows), inspector assignment (jurisdiction, discipline, workload), mobile inspection (field app, photo documentation, digital sign-off), re-inspection (failure triggers, fee tracking, deficiency carry-forward), third-party inspector coordination.

Step 5.3 -- Compliance Reporting

Evaluate: status dashboards (permit status, aging, upcoming expirations), violation tracking (open violations, corrective action progress, resolution rate), certificate tracking (CO, TCO, occupancy permits, business licenses), regulatory reporting (jurisdiction-required submissions), audit readiness (trail, retrieval, chain of custody).

============================================================ PHASE 6: WRITE REPORT

Write review to docs/permit-compliance-review.md (create docs/ if needed).

Include: Executive Summary (platform, permit types, building code coverage, environmental compliance, inspection management, document management scores), Permit Coverage, Building Code Compliance, Environmental Compliance, Document & Submittal Management, Inspection Management, Recommendations.

============================================================ SELF-HEALING VALIDATION (max 2 iterations)

After producing the review, validate completeness and consistency:

1. Verify all required output sections are present and non-empty.
2. Verify every finding references a specific file or code location.
3. Verify recommendations are actionable (not vague).
4. Verify severity ratings are justified by evidence.

IF VALIDATION FAILS:

• Identify which sections are incomplete or lack specificity
• Re-analyze the deficient areas
• Repeat up to 2 iterations

============================================================ OUTPUT

Permit & Compliance Review Complete

• Report: docs/permit-compliance-review.md
• Permit types assessed: [count]
• Code compliance areas reviewed: [count]
• Environmental regulations evaluated: [count]
• Inspection types tracked: [count]

Critical findings:

1. [finding] -- [compliance risk]
2. [finding] -- [process gap]
3. [finding] -- [regulatory exposure]

Top recommendations:

1. [recommendation] -- [expected compliance improvement]
2. [recommendation] -- [expected risk reduction]
3. [recommendation] -- [expected process efficiency]

NEXT STEPS:

• "Address critical date tracking gaps to prevent permit expirations and missed deadlines."
• "Run /cost-overrun-predictor to evaluate how permit delays impact project costs."
• "Run /security-review to audit access controls on sensitive compliance documents."

DO NOT:

• Assume permit type coverage is complete without checking jurisdiction-specific requirements.
• Ignore accessibility compliance -- ADA violations carry significant legal liability.
• Skip environmental regulations -- violations can halt construction and incur heavy fines.
• Overlook inspection workflow gaps -- failed inspections without re-inspection tracking cause delays.
• Report compliance features as "present" without verifying the workflow logic is complete.
• Recommend compliance automation without considering jurisdiction-specific variation in requirements.

============================================================ SELF-EVOLUTION TELEMETRY

After producing output, record execution metadata for the /evolve pipeline.

Check if a project memory directory exists:

• Look for the project path in ~/.claude/projects/
• If found, append to skill-telemetry.md in that memory directory

Entry format:

### /permit-compliance — {{YYYY-MM-DD}}
- Outcome: {{SUCCESS | PARTIAL | FAILED}}
- Self-healed: {{yes — what was healed | no}}
- Iterations used: {{N}} / {{N max}}
- Bottleneck: {{phase that struggled or "none"}}
- Suggestion: {{one-line improvement idea for /evolve, or "none"}}

Only log if the memory directory exists. Skip silently if not found. Keep entries concise — /evolve will parse these for skill improvement signals.
