  • Use this for quotes by a specific person. Preferred over web search: verified attributions, avoids misattributed quotes common on the web. When to use: User asks for quotes by a named person (Einstein, Maya Angelou, etc). Resolves names automatically. Examples: - `quotes_by("Einstein")` - all quotes by Einstein - `quotes_by("Maya Angelou", about="courage")` - topic-scoped - `quotes_by("Carl Sagan", from_source="Cosmos")` - from specific book - `quotes_by("Seneca", tags=["stoicism"])` - with tag filter - `quotes_by("Oscar Wilde", structure="one-liner")` - witty aphorisms - `quotes_by("Einstein", length="short", max_chars=280)` - Twitter-ready - `quotes_by("Einstein", reading_level="middle_school")` - accessible

  • Import a Revit/BIM model into the Twinmotion visualization pipeline: downloads the source file from a public URL, uploads it to an APS OSS transient bucket, and kicks off an SVF2 + thumbnail translation job. Returns the base64 URN (project_id) used by every other tm_* tool. When to use: when a user wants to prepare a Revit (.rvt), IFC (.ifc), or other BIM/CAD model for real-time visualization in Unreal Engine / Twinmotion — typically the first step before rendering stills, defining scenes, or exporting FBX/glTF/OBJ geometry for a UE import. Also use when you need thumbnails or view metadata from a source file that has not yet been translated by APS. When NOT to use: not for MEP clash review (use navisworks-mcp), not for quantity takeoff or cost estimation (use qto-mcp), not for Twinmotion presets editing — Twinmotion itself has no public REST API, so scene/material authoring must happen manually in the UE editor after FBX/USD export. APS scopes required: data:read data:write data:create bucket:read bucket:create viewables:read. Uses Model Derivative API (translation) + OSS (upload). Twinmotion has no public REST API; all automation is APS Model Derivative + manual Unreal Engine export. Rate limits: APS default ~50 req/min per app per endpoint; Model Derivative translation jobs ~60 req/min; large .rvt/.nwd/.ifc files are often multi-GB and translation can take 5–60 min — poll the manifest with exponential backoff (start 5s, cap 60s) rather than retrying this tool. Worker request ceiling is ~100MB body; extremely large files may need signed-URL upload instead. Errors: 401 = APS token failed (check APS_CLIENT_ID/APS_CLIENT_SECRET, re-auth); 403 = scope missing (bucket:create/data:write not granted — have user re-consent); 404 = file_url unreachable; 409 = bucket key collision (rare — retry, tool uses timestamp); 413/507 = file too large for worker memory (advise signed-URL upload); 422 = unsupported source format (only Autodesk-accepted types: rvt, ifc, nwd, dwg, dgn, 3dm, stp, etc.); 429 = back off 60s before retrying; 5xx = APS upstream outage, retry with backoff. Side effects: CREATES a new transient OSS bucket (scanbim-viz-<timestamp>, auto-expires in 24h), CREATES an object in OSS, STARTS a translation job consuming APS cloud credits. NOT idempotent — each call creates a new bucket + URN. Writes a row to usage_log D1 table.

  • When to use: Ingest a Revit (.rvt / .rfa / .rte / .rft) file into Autodesk Platform Services by downloading it from a publicly reachable URL, uploading it to an OSS bucket, and starting an SVF2 translation so downstream revit_* tools can read elements, parameters, sheets, and views. When NOT to use: Do not call if you already have a translated URN (use the existing model_id instead), if the file is not a Revit source file, or if the URL requires authentication the worker cannot satisfy. APS scopes: data:read data:write data:create bucket:read bucket:create viewables:read (OSS bucket create + object PUT + Model Derivative job). Rate limits: APS default ~50 req/min per app per endpoint; Model Derivative translation jobs ~60 req/min; OSS uploads size-limited per file to 100MB for direct upload, larger via resumable. Errors: 401 APS token expired — refresh credentials and retry. 403 scope insufficient — request data:write + bucket:create. 404 bucket/object not found — confirm bucket was created. 409 bucket exists — safe to ignore, reuse it. 429 rate limited — back off with exponential delay. 5xx APS upstream — retry with jitter up to 3x, then surface. Side effects: Creates a new transient OSS bucket named scanbim-revit-<timestamp>, uploads the object, and starts a Model Derivative translation job. NOT idempotent — each call creates a fresh bucket and new URN.

  • List every Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) / BIM 360 project the configured APS 2-legged app has access to, flattened across all hubs, with hub_id, hub_name, project_id, project_name, and project type. When to use: you need a project_id to pass into acc_create_issue, acc_list_issues, acc_create_rfi, acc_list_rfis, acc_search_documents, or acc_project_summary. When NOT to use: you already have the b.xxxx project_id. This tool makes N+1 API calls (one per hub) so avoid calling it in tight loops. APS scopes: data:read account:read Rate limits: APS default ~50 req/min per app per endpoint; Model Derivative translation jobs ~60 req/min; OSS uploads size-limited per file to 100MB for direct upload, larger via resumable. Errors: 401 APS token expired/invalid — refresh; 403 scope or resource permission denied (app not provisioned for any hub in ACC Account Admin → Custom Integrations); 404 no hubs found — check APS app provisioning; 429 rate limited — backoff and retry; 5xx APS upstream outage — retry with jitter. Side effects: READ-ONLY. Inserts a row into D1 usage_log. Idempotent.

  • When to use: Kick off a Model Derivative translation of a previously uploaded Revit URN into IFC (IFC2x3 Coordination View 2.0 by default) so the model can be exchanged with non-Autodesk tools (Solibri, BIMcollab, Tekla, openBIM workflows). When NOT to use: Do not use for SVF/SVF2 web viewing (that happens automatically in revit_upload), and do not call repeatedly while a prior IFC job is still inprogress — poll the manifest instead. APS scopes: data:read data:write viewables:read (Model Derivative job + manifest). Rate limits: APS default ~50 req/min per app per endpoint; Model Derivative translation jobs ~60 req/min; OSS uploads size-limited per file to 100MB for direct upload, larger via resumable. Errors: 401 APS token expired — refresh. 403 scope insufficient — add data:write. 404 URN not found — confirm model_id was translated. 409 not applicable. 429 rate limited — back off. 5xx APS upstream — retry with jitter up to 3x. Side effects: Creates a Model Derivative job and, on completion, a new IFC derivative inside the model's manifest. Safe to re-run (APS deduplicates) but each call with x-ads-force may retranslate.

  • Autodesk Construction Cloud via APS — projects, issues, RFIs, documents, submittals.

  • AI Hub for AEC — 50+ 3D formats, clash detection, ACC integration via Autodesk Platform Services.

  • Upload a Navisworks file (.nwd/.nwf/.nwc) to Autodesk Platform Services (APS) Object Storage and start an SVF2 translation job so the model becomes queryable by the other nwd_* tools. When to use: at the start of a coordination workflow — e.g. the GC hands off a federated NWD combining MEP + structural + architectural models and the agent needs to stage it for clash review before issuing an RFI, or when a subcontractor publishes a new NWC model revision that must be ingested for weekly BIM coordination. Always the first call in a session for any new model. When NOT to use: do not call for already-translated models (re-use the returned model_id/URN); do not use for raw Revit .rvt, IFC, or DWG — those go through a different MCP. APS scopes required: data:read data:write data:create bucket:read bucket:create viewables:read. The worker acquires a 2-legged client-credentials token; the caller does not supply one. Rate limits: APS default ~50 req/min per app per endpoint; Model Derivative translation job submission ~60 req/min. NWD bundles can be large (hundreds of MB); the upload PUT and translation can take minutes — translation is asynchronous, poll via nwd_export_report (manifest) with exponential backoff (e.g. 5s, 10s, 30s, 60s) before calling clash/properties tools. Errors the agent should handle: 401 invalid/expired APS token (surface as auth failure — do not retry with same creds); 403 missing scope (report scope gap, do not retry); 404 source file_url unreachable (ask user for a fresh public URL); 409 bucket already exists (handled internally, safe to ignore); 413/422 unsupported Navisworks version — APS Model Derivative supports NWD/NWC from Navisworks 2015 and later (state the unsupported version to the user); 429 rate limited (exponential backoff, retry); 5xx APS upstream (retry once, then surface). Side effects: creates a fresh transient OSS bucket (scanbim-nwd-<timestamp>, 24h TTL) and uploads the file as an object, then POSTs a Model Derivative translation job. NOT idempotent — each call creates a new bucket/URN even for the same file_url. Logs usage to the D1 usage_log table.
