Connect AI
- Eight AI platforms shown across six rows
- Detects the config on the machine and connects when Revit starts
- Per-platform state and the number of exposed tools
MCP server status across eight AI platforms: config on the machine is detected and connected automatically, letting AI agents read and drive Revit over a standard protocol.
Every AI platform — Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini CLI — wants its own JSON config file, with the exact path, the exact key, the exact syntax. Nothing tells you whether the MCP server is actually alive until you ask the AI something and it goes quiet or throws a vague 'tool not found'.
Eight platforms mean eight JSON files in eight different folders, each its own format — one wrong bracket or exe path and the client fails to load the server, with an error that never says why.
The MCP server just sits waiting for a client call; if Revit closes or the add-in errors out, the AI only reports a generic missing tool, leaving the real cause to guesswork.
There's no step that auto-detects existing config — a new machine, or adding one more AI platform, means hunting down the right config folder, copying JSON, and reopening the app just to see if it worked.
There's no single screen showing which platform is connected and how many tools it's exposing out of the total — the gap only surfaces when you ask the AI something and get a wrong answer.
Autodesk has just shipped an official MCP server into Revit 2027, letting AI read model data — categories, parameters, geometry, project info — through Claude Desktop or Cursor, but it is read-only and tied to that one version. The AUTOM8LABS MCP Connector add-in reaches further: the free tier ships 37 read-only tools, and the Pro tier at £10 per seat per month (or £100 per year) unlocks 200+ tools with one-click auto-configuration — but it stops at three platforms, Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. ZFENIX's MCP Server covers eight AI platforms at once, runs across Revit 2022–2027, and auto-detects the config already on the machine to connect the moment Revit starts:
The interface is matched to the tool window running in Revit.
Purge dead views, empty groups, unused families and leftover CAD imports — shrink the file before you issue.
Audit usage and duplicates; safely create, edit, duplicate, merge and delete Object, Line, Text, Dimension, Viewport and Scope Box styles. The AI assistant and account-saved presets only queue changes — you press Apply yourself.
