rvt-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

rvt-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from bimwright/rvt-mcp. It costs 5,932 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Installation instructions for rvt-mcp, a bridge that lets AI coding agents work with Autodesk Revit, a program for building design and construction models.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to install the Revit add-in, connect supported MCP clients to it, check the connection, and undo the setup if it fails.
Why use it?
They describe the required Revit versions, correct release to install, client setup, verification, and rollback steps, reducing configuration mistakes.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md; mentions Codex.

This is bimwright/rvt-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on rvt-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything rvt-mcp configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

rvt-mcp AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 20d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

AGENTS.md — rvt-mcp install guide for AI agents

This file is the install protocol for an AI agent with permission to run PowerShell and edit files on the user's Windows machine (for example Claude Code, Codex or Cursor). A normal chat session without local execution tools cannot perform the install: explain that limitation and offer the manual steps instead.

Installer agent ≠ target client. The user may ask Codex to install for Claude Desktop. Configure only the client(s) the user requests, not automatically the client running your session. If no target is specified, ask before previewing changes.

What you can do:

  • Install the client setup ZIP from GitHub Releases (RvtMcp.Setup-*-win-x64.zip).
  • Deploy the bundled add-in into %APPDATA%\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\<year>\ for every installed Revit year, and the bundled server to a fixed per-user path.
  • Connect the requested MCP client(s): always pass -Client <names> for direct registration, or -Client none for the Claude Desktop MCPB route. The installer itself defaults to every detected client; do not use that default unless the user requested it.
  • Verify installation, target-client connection and Revit handshake separately; troubleshoot failures and verify any attempted rollback.

Release selection: resolve /repos/bimwright/rvt-mcp/releases/latest once for a normal install, or use the published release the user explicitly requested. Record its tag and use assets from that one release throughout. v1.0.0 introduced the Claude Desktop MCPB route and the %LOCALAPPDATA%\Bimwright\rvt-mcp\ data path. Do not install v0.5.0 or earlier tags.

What you cannot do:

  • Install Revit, manage Revit licensing, or launch Revit for the first time. If Revit 2022–2027 is not installed, stop and tell the user.
  • Install from unpublished tags or RvtMcp.Setup-*.zip URLs for v0.5.0 and earlier.
  • Use NuGet as the client installer. Bimwright.Rvt.Server (0.1–0.3) is obsolete. RvtMcp.Server is server-only (no Revit add-in). Only run dotnet tool install -g RvtMcp.Server if the user explicitly asked for a global .NET tool and plugins are already installed from the GitHub Release ZIP.
  • Install the .NET 8 SDK, clone the repo, restore NuGet packages, or build source for a client install. If the user did not explicitly ask for a developer setup, use the GitHub Release ZIP only.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
