local-only server
The server can only run on the client’s local machine because it depends on local resources.
revit-mcp
English | 简体中文
Description
revit-mcp allows you to interact with Revit using the MCP protocol through MCP-supported clients (such as Claude, Cline, etc.).
This project is the server side (providing Tools to AI), and you need to use revit-mcp-plugin (driving Revit) in conjunction.
Features
- Allow AI to get data from the Revit project
- Allow AI to drive Revit to create, modify, and delete elements
- Send AI-generated code to Revit to execute (may not be successful, successful rate is higher in some simple scenarios with clear requirements)
Requirements
- nodejs 18+
Complete installation environment still needs to consider the needs of revit-mcp-plugin, please refer to revit-mcp-plugin
Installation
1. Build local MCP service
Install dependencies
Build
2. Client configuration
Claude client
Claude client -> Settings > Developer > Edit Config > claude_desktop_config.json
Restart the Claude client. When you see the hammer icon, it means the connection to the MCP service is normal.
