Questions about this workflow
Does the elevator action check only the stations in my brief?
Bart's action returns current elevator status across all BART stations, which Notis can use alongside the stations found in the brief.
Does this guarantee an accessible route?
No. It provides current elevator status to inform planning; it does not validate every part of a route or guarantee future availability.
