Reference pattern · Air quality × Ventilation

Your HVAC should know the air outside.

An air-quality signal could inform a bounded ventilation proposal: close approved outdoor-air dampers, switch to recirculation, or stage filtration within site policy. This is an illustrative reference pattern, not a live Fibric building connection or current self-service install.

The Plan

The whole loop, applied.

One pass through four moves, with a record at each step.

01Sense

Bad air arrives upwind

Minutes-to-hours before the plume reaches the intake, the signal is already in the loop.

AQI / smoke signal → ingest & normalize → signal logged
02Reason

The operator proposes a plan

Weighed against your priorities (air quality, energy, occupancy) before anything moves.

Signal + your rules → propose plan → proposal id
03Act

Close, recirculate, filter

In a managed deployment, an approved connector could dispatch the bounded change with idempotency and single-flight controls.

Trust gate pass → dispatch · single-flight → action receipt
04Receipt

Record the supported outcome

The proposal, approval, and reported result belong on the record. Recovery depends on what the HVAC system and site procedure support.

Proposal + outcome → attribute & record → execution trail

Reference capability path

Close the intake before the PM2.5 spike.

The preview shows a proposed signal path. A real deployment requires a validated connector, explicit policy, human approval, and a tested recovery boundary.
