ifc-ids-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

ifc-ids-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from vinnividivicci/ifc-ids-mcp. It costs 6,169 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for an MCP server that creates buildingSMART Information Delivery Specification files. IDS is a standard for stating required information in building models and checking IFC files against those requirements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing or maintaining the IDS MCP server, especially for creating IDS documents and checking compliance with the IDS 1.0 standard.
Why use it?
They explain the project’s purpose, implementation status, and required development practices, including test-driven development, or TDD, where tests guide code changes.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

This is vinnividivicci/ifc-ids-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on ifc-ids-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 ifc-ids-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

ifc-ids-mcp CLAUDE.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 12d 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.

IDS MCP Server - AI Agent Guide

For: Claude, GPT, and other AI agents working on this project Last Updated: 2025-11-02 Project Status: ✅ Implementation Complete - Fully Functional with Early Validation


Quick Start

This project is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables AI agents to create buildingSMART IDS (Information Delivery Specification) files that are 100% compliant with the IDS 1.0 standard.

What you need to know:

  • Design complete - Full specification documented
  • PRDs complete - 9 implementation phases planned
  • Implementation complete - Following TDD methodology with early validation
  • 🎯 Goal: 100% IDS 1.0 XSD compliance using IfcTester library ✅ ACHIEVED

Project Overview

What is IDS?

Information Delivery Specification (IDS) is a buildingSMART standard for:

  • Defining what information is required in BIM models
  • Automatically checking IFC models for compliance
  • Standardizing requirements across different BIM software tools

What Does This Server Do?

This MCP server provides AI agents with tools to:

  1. Create IDS documents programmatically
  2. Load existing IDS files
  3. Add specifications with applicability and requirements
  4. Add facets (Entity, Property, Attribute, Classification, Material, PartOf)
  5. Add restrictions (enumeration, pattern, bounds, length)
  6. Validate IDS documents and IFC models
  7. Export to standards-compliant XML
  8. Early validation - Catch IDS 1.0 constraint violations before XML generation

Essential Reading (In Order)

1. Project Constitution 📜

File: constitution.md

Read this FIRST. Contains the 6 non-negotiable principles:

  1. 100% IDS Schema Compliance
  2. Test-Driven Development (95%+ coverage)
  3. IfcTester Integration First
  4. Deterministic Generation
  5. FastMCP Context-Based Session Management
  6. Python Best Practices

Key Takeaway: Every decision must align with these principles.

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.
