@shuotao/revit-mcp-server

AI-powered control of Autodesk Revit through the Model Context Protocol. This npm package is the Node.js stdio MCP server — the bridge that lets an AI client (Claude, etc.) drive Revit with natural-language tool calls.

Published on the MCP Registry as io.github.shuotao/revit-mcp-server.

What it is

AI client (Claude Desktop / Claude Code / …)
  → stdio →  this package (@shuotao/revit-mcp-server)
  → WebSocket (localhost:8964) →  Revit add-in (C#)  →  Revit API

It exposes 160+ MCP tools for BIM workflows: element queries, curtain-wall elevations, quantity take-off, room/parking numbering, IFC structural sync, code-compliance checks, and more.

⚠️ Requires the Revit add-in

This package is only the stdio bridge. It does nothing on its own — the C# Revit add-in must be installed separately and running inside Revit (it opens the WebSocket server on localhost:8964).

👉 Full install (add-in build + deploy, per Revit version) and documentation: https://github.com/shuotao/REVIT_MCP_study

Usage

Run directly:

npx -y @shuotao/revit-mcp-server

Or wire it into an MCP client config:

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

Optional env: REVIT_MCP_PORT (default 8964, must match the add-in), MCP_PROFILE (full | architect | mep | structural | fire-safety).

Requirements

• Node.js 18+
• Autodesk Revit 2022–2026 with the Revit MCP add-in installed and its service enabled
