bulc_set_premovement_time

Instructions

Implementation Reference

• src/tools/evac.ts:1076-1083 (handler)

  The handler case within handleEvacTool function that validates input using SetPremovementTimeSchema and sends the 'set_premovement_time' command to the BULC client.

  case "bulc_set_premovement_time": {
    const validated = SetPremovementTimeSchema.parse(args);
    result = await client.sendCommand({
      action: "set_premovement_time",
      params: validated,
    });
    break;
  }

• src/tools/evac.ts:841-854 (schema)

  Zod validation schema used in the handler to parse and validate the tool input parameters.

  const SetPremovementTimeSchema = z.object({
    detectionTime: z.number().min(0).optional(),
    reactionTimeMean: z.number().min(0).optional(),
    reactionTimeStdDev: z.number().min(0).optional(),
    distribution: z.enum(["NORMAL", "LOGNORMAL", "UNIFORM"]).optional(),
    minReactionTime: z.number().min(0).optional(),
    maxReactionTime: z.number().positive().optional(),
    applyPerRoom: z.boolean().optional(),
    roomSettings: z.array(z.object({
      room: z.string(),
      reactionTimeMean: z.number().optional(),
      reactionTimeStdDev: z.number().optional(),
    })).optional(),
  });

• src/tools/evac.ts:561-616 (registration)
