WHAT IT DOES

What bulc_set_fds_thermocouple does on BULC Building Designer

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why bulc_set_fds_thermocouple needs a policy

The tool configures (modifies) an existing furniture item's properties to function as a measurement device in the FDS fire simulation. This is a reversible write operation that changes object state rather than creating new objects. While it affects simulation setup, it does not execute external code, delete data, or trigger financial transactions. The undo/redo support confirms reversibility.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Configure a furniture item as an FDS thermocouple' — this modifies configuration of a simulation object.
