Permit Plan Review Comment Response Agent

A response that addresses every plan review comment

Permit Plan Review Comment Response Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Building departments send plan review comments that must each be answered and fixed in the drawings, and one missed comment means another review cycle. This agent logs each comment, assigns it to the architect or the right consultant, tracks drawing changes, and drafts the response letter citing sheet numbers. Every comment gets either a change or a reason. Before resubmittal, it checks the revised drawings to confirm each comment was actually addressed. Anything missing goes back to its owner, and the agent checks again after their fix. Comments the team disagrees with get a code-based explanation drafted for the architect to review. The architect approves the letter and resubmits; the agent never submits to the building department. Edge case: a reviewer comment the team believes is wrong gets a reasoned code citation rather than a silent change.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

An example run

What happensThe building department returned 37 comments on October 3. The agent logged and assigned them to the architect, structural engineer and MEP consultant. Before resubmittal, the check failed: three comments had no revised sheets, including the egress width on A2.03. It sent them back to their owners. One comment the team disagreed with got a code-based explanation. The recheck passed, and the architect approved the response letter and resubmitted.
