# ACC AI MCP

Enables AI assistants like GitHub Copilot, Claude, and Cursor to interact with Autodesk Construction Cloud projects through natural language. Connects AI workflows with APS APIs to query project data, browse files, and analyze issues directly from development environments.

### How It Works

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) creates a standardized way for AI assistants to access external data sources:

```
┌─────────────────┐         ┌──────────────────┐         ┌─────────────────┐
│   VS Code +     │  MCP    │  aps-mcp-server  │   APS   │  Autodesk ACC   │
│ GitHub Copilot  │ ◄─────► │   (Node.js)      │ ◄─────► │   Projects      │
└─────────────────┘  stdio  └──────────────────┘   API   └─────────────────┘
```

1. **AI Client** (VS Code/Claude/Cursor) sends natural language queries
2. **MCP Server** translates queries into APS API calls using Secure Service Account credentials
3. **APS APIs** fetch data from your ACC projects
4. **MCP Server** returns structured data to the AI client
5. **AI Client** formats and presents the information to you
