Planting Plan Climate Fit Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

A plant list can look right on paper and fail in the ground because of hardiness, water need, soil or light. This agent reads the planting schedule and the site data and checks each plant against the climate zone, soil type, light, water supply and any restrictions, such as native-only rules or invasive lists. It flags poor fits and proposes alternatives with similar form, size and color. After the list is revised, it checks every plant again and the mix as a whole, such as having too many plants with the same water need. You approve the plant list. Edge case: a maple is listed for a hot, dry western exposure, and the agent proposes two tougher trees of similar height.

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.

How it decides

It checks every plant against each site factor and swaps those that fail with the closest match in form and size from an allowed list.

  • Hardiness zone must cover the site, with a one zone margin for borderline (default)
  • Invasive or restricted species are removed
  • Water zones must stay within the irrigation plan
  • Keep the size and form of the original design where possible

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Hardiness margin
  • Native-only rule on or off
  • Restricted species list
  • Water zones
  • Plant database

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • The plant list

Hard limits

  • Never replaces the design intent
  • Never uses restricted species
  • Shows its reasons for each swap

It stops when

  • Done: all plants fit and the mix passes
  • Stop: no allowed alternative exists; architect revises the design

An example run

What happensA courtyard plan listed 18 species. The agent flagged a Japanese maple for a hot western wall in zone 8, a hydrangea in full sun, and a species on the county invasive list. It proposed replacements. On recheck, two substitutes needed more water than the drip zone provided, so the check failed. It swapped them for drought-tolerant options. The architect approved the list.
