What io.github.shuotao/revit-mcp-server does

Revit MCP lets AI clients call Autodesk Revit tools through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The MCP server forwards tool calls to a local Revit add-in, and the add-in executes the corresponding Revit API workflow.

What is this?

Talk to Revit in plain language. Ask your AI client to "dimension every wall on this view" or "check the curtain-wall elevations", and Revit does it — through 173 MCP tools backed by 76 professional BIM SOPs (building code, quantity take-off, compliance checks).

Who it's for: BIM engineers and architects who use Revit and want AI-assisted, standards-based workflows. You'll need Revit (2022–2026) on Windows and to be comfortable installing an add-in.

Quickstart (3 steps)

Install the Revit add-in. Build and deploy the C# add-in — see Manual Setup. This is the half that actually talks to Revit.

Point your AI client at the MCP server. No cloning needed — it runs straight from npm:

{ "mcpServers": { "revit-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@shuotao/revit-mcp-server"] } } }

Open Revit, enable the MCP service in the ribbon, and start asking. Full setup: AI Client Configuration.

New: Interactive Clash Viewer (MCP Apps)

detect_clashes can now render an interactive clash-review UI inline in the conversation, via the MCP Apps extension (io.modelcontextprotocol/ui). This requires an MCP host that supports the extension. It is purely additive:

Interactive rendering only happens in GUI hosts that support MCP Apps (Claude Desktop, the claude.ai web app, VS Code GitHub Copilot). A terminal CLI like Claude Code can't render the panel and always shows the text result — this is expected, not a fault.
Hosts without MCP Apps support keep getting detect_clashes's normal text result — nothing changes for them.
The stdio connection and the existing Revit add-in are unaffected; no reinstall or reconfiguration is needed.

See docs/MIGRATION_GUIDE.md for the full MCP 2026-07-28 upgrade notes.
