MCP server for Revit - Python

A pyRevit-oriented implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Autodesk Revit

How?

This minimal implementation leverages the Routes module inside pyRevit to create a bridge between Revit and Large Language Models (LLMs).
It provides a straightforward template to get started quickly, letting you prototype and iterate tools to give LLMs access to your Revit models.
These tools are designed to be expanded for your specific use cases. You're very welcome to fork the repo and make your own contributions.
Note: The pyRevit Routes API is currently in draft form and subject to change. It lacks built-in authentication mechanisms, so you'll need to implement your own security measures for production use.

Batteries Included

This repo is aimed at:

Beginners to the Revit API
Python specialists who aren't versed in C#
Anyone wanting to prototype and iterate quickly with LLMs and Revit

It contains:

A complete Routes implementation for pyRevit
A minimal MCP server script to connect to any MCP-compatible client
Several test commands to get you started right away

Key Architecture Components

The system runs as two separate servers working together in a chain:

Claude / LLM Client
       |
       |  MCP Protocol (stdio or HTTP)
       v
  main.py  (MCP Server)
       |
       |  HTTP requests (localhost:48884)
       v
  pyRevit Routes  (REST API running inside Revit)
       |
       |  Revit API calls
       v
  Revit Application

main.py is the MCP server. It speaks the MCP protocol so that Claude (or any MCP-compatible client) can call tools. When a tool is called, main.py translates it into an HTTP request and forwards it to Revit.

pyRevit Routes is a lightweight REST API that runs inside the Revit process. It receives those HTTP requests, executes Revit API code (since it has direct access to the running instance), and returns JSON responses.

They never conflict because they serve different roles, speak different protocols, and listen on different ports.

Note: The Launch & Document tools (launch_revit, list_revit_installations) are the exception — they run entirely on the MCP side, using subprocess to start Revit and then polling the pyRevit Routes health endpoint until the bridge is ready.

MCP Server (main.py):

Built with FastMCP
Handles HTTP communication with Revit Routes API
Registers tools from modular tool system
Provides helper functions for GET/POST/Image requests

pyRevit Extension (revit-mcp-python.extension/):

Contains the Routes API that runs inside Revit
Modular route registration in startup.py
Individual route modules in revit_mcp/ directory

Tool Registration System (tools/):

Modular tool organization by functionality
Central registration through tools/__init__.py
Each module registers its own tools with the MCP server
