    "purpose": "Enable an AI agent to recognise a dome, record its geometry and physical state, and identify uses or interventions that require evidence or specialist assessment.",
    "definition": "A dome is an architectural covering or enclosure resembling the hollow upper half of a sphere, typically hemispherical or near-hemispherical, whose construction may use a shell, ribs, a lattice or a tensioned membrane, used as a roof, building enclosure or protective cover.",
    "scope_statement": "This model provisionally treats dome as an architectural covering or enclosure with an overall curved or faceted crown over a bounded footprint; it owns the dome assembly, its openings, and its interfaces with supports, pending confirmation of the registry's intended meaning.",
    "in_scope": [
      "The dome's footprint, rise, profile, crown and relationship to the space it covers",

      "Check whether the overall covering rises toward a crown across its footprint, rather than repeating an arch profile along an extended axis as a barrel vault does.",
      "Check whether a faceted form approximates a dome envelope or consists of planar roof faces meeting at a distinct apex; do not classify every pyramidal roof as a dome.",
      "Distinguish an externally visible dome from an interior domed ceiling, and establish whether they are separate assemblies.",
      "Check whether a small cupola is an independent assembly or a component atop a larger dome; record that relationship rather than assuming the terms are interchangeable.",
