Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Revit MCP server: 200+ tools to read and edit BIM models, every change human-approved.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: MCP_REVIT_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: MCP_REVIT_WORKSPACE_DIR, MCP_REVIT_ALLOWED_DIRECTORIES, MCP_REVIT_MODE, MCP_REVIT_BRIDGE_URL, MCP_REVIT_AUDIT_LOG, MCP_REVIT_LOG_LEVEL, MCP_REVIT_APPROVAL_MODE, MCP_REVIT_ENABLE_USER_MODULES, MCP_REVIT_ALLOW_PYTHON_HOST, MCP_REVIT_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

The link goes to the maker’s own file; we do not host or repackage it. Open the file and Claude Desktop installs it.

Run this in your terminal

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • MCP_REVIT_WORKSPACE_DIR env
    Workspace root directory for server file operations.
  • MCP_REVIT_ALLOWED_DIRECTORIES env
    Semicolon-delimited allow-list of directories the server can access.
  • MCP_REVIT_MODE env
    Server mode: mock or bridge.
  • MCP_REVIT_BRIDGE_URL env
    Bridge URL, for example http://127.0.0.1:3000 (required when MCP_REVIT_MODE=bridge).
  • MCP_REVIT_AUDIT_LOG env
    Path to the audit log file.
  • MCP_REVIT_LOG_LEVEL env
    Python log level, for example INFO or DEBUG.
  • MCP_REVIT_APPROVAL_MODE env
    Approval gate for write tools. "required" (default) blocks every model change until a human approves a plan; do not relax this unless you understand the risk.
  • MCP_REVIT_ENABLE_USER_MODULES env
    Set to true to load user-written modules from the workspace. Off by default.
  • MCP_REVIT_ALLOW_PYTHON_HOST env
    Set to true to allow module commands that declare the python.host permission to run. Off by default.
  • MCP_REVIT_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY secret env
    Optional Anthropic API key, used only by the built-in agent chat in the Revit panel. Not needed for MCP use.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is AEC Model Bridge safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: MCP_REVIT_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.4.0) reached the registry 28 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need MCPB on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Copied from the maker’s repo as written. PopNx MCP has not reviewed or endorsed it. HTML, images and scripts are removed. Links lead off this site.

AEC Model Bridge

Python MCP server for reviewing BIM model quality and fixing Revit parameters with Claude, Codex and other MCP clients. Read-only tools inspect the model; model changes require an approved plan by default.

Get started | Example workflows | Tool reference

Live Revit automation requires Windows, Revit 2024–2027 and the native Revit add-in. The server also includes IFC inspection, Rhino and Grasshopper, and Speckle providers. Navisworks integration is in progress. See the installation guide.

Run the server

Requires Python 3.11 or newer. To explore the tools in mock mode from a repository checkout:

python -m pip install -e packages/mcp-server-revit

$env:MCP_REVIT_MODE = "mock" $env:MCP_REVIT_WORKSPACE_DIR = (Get-Location).Path $env:MCP_REVIT_ALLOWED_DIRECTORIES = $env:MCP_REVIT_WORKSPACE_DIR python -m revit_mcp_server.mcp_server

MCP clients start the server over stdio. The console command is aec-model-bridge; revit-mcp-server remains available as a compatibility alias. For development without Revit, set MCP_REVIT_MODE=mock to return canned responses. The release .mcpb bundle uses the MCPB uv runtime and prompts for a permitted workspace directory.

Configuration

Environment variablePurpose
MCP_REVIT_MODEbridge for a live application or mock for development

MCP_REVIT_ALLOWED_DIRECTORIESSemicolon-separated permitted directories
MCP_REVIT_HOST_VERSIONOptional Revit year selector, such as 2026
MCP_REVIT_BRIDGE_URLOptional explicit bridge endpoint
MCP_REVIT_AUDIT_LOGAudit log location
MCP_REVIT_LOG_LEVELLogging verbosity
