Connectors
How bimai reaches ACC, desktop apps, open formats and exported files.
Every tool is reached through a connector, and every connector behaves the same way: same safety rules, same evidence, same tests.
| Type | For | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Cloud | Online services | ACC / Forma, Microsoft 365 |
| Desktop bridge | Programs running on your computer | Revit, Civil 3D, Bentley OpenRoads, AutoCAD, Navisworks, Blender/Bonsai |
| File | Open formats and exports | IFC, IDS, BCF, OpenUSD, Relatics JSON, Primavera and MS Project XML |
| Existing MCP server | Servers others already built | Autodesk AEC Data Model, Revit Public MCP, Autodesk Product Help |
Capabilities, not brands
Packs ask for a capability ("read issues", "query the model", "query alignments"), not a product. Civil 3D and OpenRoads offer the same infra capabilities, so an alignment check works on either. When a project moves from ACC issues to BCF, the same pack keeps working.
Maturity
| Level | Means |
|---|---|
| experimental | Builds; use at your own risk |
| beta | Passes the conformance tests and has recorded test data |
| stable | Beta, used in an evaluation scenario, with a maintainer |
