Revit MCP vs Figwright
A side-by-side look at the Revit MCP and Figwright MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Revit MCP for architecture & design work as a local process; choose Figwright for architecture & design as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

add_pipe_cap在管件的未連線端安裝管帽或法蘭。自動尋找開放的接頭並連接。adjust_section_datums自動調整剖面視圖的網格線 (Grids) 與樓層線 (Levels) 2D 範圍與氣泡顯示。align_titleblocks_on_sheets批次將多個 sheet 上的 titleblock 移動到同一個 anchor 座標。可用『referenceSheetNumber』指定要拷貝某張 sheet 上 titleblock 的位置，或用『referencePositionMm』直接給絕對座標。anchor 決定要對齊 titleblock bbox 的哪個角（top-left / top-right / bottom-left / bottom-right / center）。建議先 dryRun=true 預覽 delta，確認後再實際執行。觸發條件：使用者提到 titleblock 對齊、圖框對齊、把所有 sheet 圖框對齊到 X、change_element_type 後圖框沒跟著移動、align titleblock、move titleblock to match。align_view_cropbox_to_element將指定視圖的 CropBox 對齊到目標元素（如 Detail Group 圖框）的 BoundingBox。保留原 Z 軸深度與 CropBox Transform。viewId 不指定時使用 active view。analyze_beam_penetration分析特定結構梁上的套管穿孔。回傳精確的幾何數據，如距離柱心長度、梁深度、開孔直徑等。analyze_corridor_width分析走廊寬度。使用 Revit 端的房間邊界線段找出平行牆對，回傳實測寬度、最小寬度與各區段檢討結果。analyze_floor_slopes分析樓板頂面排水坡度：以 Solid→PlanarFace 法向量與 Z 軸夾角計算每片朝上頂面的坡度百分比，回傳每片樓板的 Min/Max 坡度，並可回寫至指定參數（預設 Comments）。未指定 elementIds 時自動收集 Function=Exterior 的樓板。analyze_smoke_detectors偵煙探測器設置分析：掃描當前視圖的探測器、空調出風口（FCU/冷風機）、房間，回傳各探測器的距出風口距離、距牆/樑距離、距天花板距離，以及各房間的探測器數量與樑區格數。供 JS 端進行五項法規判定。analyze_tall_partition_roomsFind rooms on target levels that share or contain TYPE partition walls taller than a threshold. Uses room boundary segment ElementIds so shared room-to-room walls are assigned to both rooms, and can add upward ray evidence from room bottom to floor underside.apply_panel_pattern將面板排列模式套用到帷幕牆。需要類型映射表和排列矩陣。arrange_viewports_on_sheet依指定順序排列圖紙上的視埠（僅限 DraftingView）。支援水平或垂直排列，邊緣對齊（edge-to-edge）。第一個視埠的位置作為錨點。可用 viewNames（view 名稱陣列）或 viewportIds（視埠 ID 陣列）指定順序，二擇一。assign_existing_material將既有材質（透過名稱查找）套用到指定的 Type。不建立新材質。用於復原或批次指派既有材質（例如把 9 個柱子從 'White_MCP' 改回 '鋼 AISI 1015'）。- +155 more on the listing page
