Description: MCP server for interacting with Autodesk Revit through AI assistants like Claude
Latest version: 1.0.0

# @mromerom/mcp-server-for-revit

MCP server for interacting with Autodesk Revit through AI assistants like Claude.

This package is the MCP server component of [mcp-servers-for-revit](https://github.com/mcp-servers-for-revit/mcp-servers-for-revit). It exposes Revit operations as MCP tools that AI clients can call. The server communicates with the [Revit plugin](https://github.com/mcp-servers-for-revit/mcp-servers-for-revit) over WebSocket to execute commands inside Revit.

> [!NOTE]
> This server requires the mcp-servers-for-revit Revit plugin to be installed and running inside Revit. See the [full project README](https://github.com/mcp-servers-for-revit/mcp-servers-for-revit) for setup instructions.

## Setup

**Claude Code**

```bash
claude mcp add mcp-server-for-revit-mromerom -- npx -y @mromerom/mcp-server-for-revit
```

**Claude Desktop**

Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config → `claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "mcp-server-for-revit-mromerom": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": ["-y", "@mromerom/mcp-server-for-revit"]
        }
    }
