ZFenixApp MCP.

Let AI work with local IFC projects over MCP: add files, convert on your own hardware, render 3D images, filter elements, read Psets — models never leave the machine.

01 · THE PROBLEM

Getting AI to review an IFC set usually means uploading it to a cloud platform, waiting for a server-side convert, then asking. Large files cost bandwidth and storage, and the AI still cannot look at the model itself.

The model has to leave the machine

Every review means uploading hundreds of megabytes of IFC to a server, plus storage and conversion costs.

mù hình

AI cannot see the model

The agent only reads text; it cannot render a 3D view or find elements by class or storey to cross-check.

02 · FEATURES

What it does

ZFenixApp MCP is an MCP bridge built into ZFenixApp: the AI client launches ZFenixApp.exe --mcp and every action runs on the local project and the machine's GPU. Access ships with Team/Studio; every call checks access online.

A

Local IFC projects

  • Create/open a project per folder, add .ifc/.glb in place or copy them in, duplicates skipped
  • Convert IFC to 3D with IfcConvert on the machine, cached by content so reopening is instant
  • Shares data with ZFenixApp's on-machine Projects screen
B

AI sees and reads the model

  • Federate several files and render 3D images from 7 standard views on the machine's GPU
  • Stats for triangles, elements per IFC class, storeys and bounds
  • Filter elements by IFC class, name or storey; read Psets and quantities by GlobalId
C

Included in Team/Studio

  • Granted by plan like AutoCAD MCP — not a per-account manual switch
  • Every call checks access online; without it every zfapp_* tool is locked
