Tutorial guide

This handbook follows the structured generation platform from the public homepage into the main workspace, then through model loading, IDS checking, AI-assisted preparation, retrieval, generation, execution, and final verification.

Use the chapters in order when learning the workflow for the first time. The pages are organized around the sequence of actions a user performs in the system.

What the tutorial covers

1. Enter the homepage and open the structured generation platform.
2. Read the workspace layout, load an IFC model, inspect the viewport, and review properties.
3. Load IFC and IDS files, use the built-in demo files when needed, run IDS checking, and review results.
4. Prepare AI-assisted editing by collecting structured knowledge, uploading project documents, embedding them, and retrieving relevant chunks.
5. Prepare the final knowledge set, load the LLM, generate commands, execute the edit, save the model, and re-run IDS checking.

How to read the pages

Each chapter uses short paragraphs, bullet points, inline screenshots, and icon guides where the button appearance matters. Images open in a floating viewer on the same page and can be zoomed with the mouse wheel.

• Sidebar. Jump between chapters.
• Top and bottom buttons. Move through the sequence.
• Images. Open in a floating viewer and zoom without leaving the tutorial.
