Can I automatically list all available file formats for a specific product?

Yes! Use the `get_product_files` tool with the Product ID. Your agent will return download links for all available formats like Revit, ArchiCAD, and IFC.

How do I search for products from a specific brand?

You can use the `list_brands` tool to find the correct Brand ID and then include it as a filter in your `search_products` query.

Does it support international classification systems like Uniclass or OmniClass?

Yes! Use the `list_classifications` tool to retrieve the supported systems. You can then use these to filter your product searches according to industry standards.

About BIMobject MCP Server

Connect your AI agents to BIMobject, the world's leading BIM content platform. This MCP provides 10 tools to search the marketplace, retrieve detailed product specifications, and access BIM files for AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) workflows.

Cursor's Agent mode turns BIMobject into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from BIMobject and it fetches, processes, and writes — all in a single agentic loop. 10 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.

What you can do

Product Discovery — Search for specific building products and materials using keywords and filters
Technical Specs — Retrieve granular metadata and manufacturer details for BIM objects
File Access — List available BIM formats (Revit, ArchiCAD, IFC, etc.) for any product
Brand Analysis — Explore manufacturer profiles and their full digital product catalogs

The BIMobject MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cursor in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

BIMobject + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating BIMobject MCP Server with Cursor.

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design — tool calls require user visibility and approval.

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
