Uses ifcopenshell.geom.tree API directly to check an element for
intersections and clearance violations against sibling elements
(--scope storey) or the entire model (--scope all).
New subcommand: ifcquery <file> relations <element_id>
Returns all relationships for an element organised by category:
hierarchy (parent, container, aggregate, nest), children (contained,
parts, components, openings), type relationships, groups, systems,
zones, material, referenced structures, and connections/ports.
Empty categories are omitted from output.
Optional --traverse up flag walks the hierarchy from the element
up to IfcProject, returning the chain as a list.
Provides four subcommands for querying IFC models with JSON output:
- summary: schema, entity counts, project info
- tree: spatial hierarchy (Project > Site > Building > Storey > elements)
- info: deep element inspection (attributes, psets, type, material, container)
- select: filter elements using selector syntax
