Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Pre-Meeting Project Audit

Before a stakeholder meeting, ask your agent to list all projects in a hub and pull the top 3 open issues for the most critical one.

02

Site Progress Check

On site, ask the agent to list assets in the current project and get details on any specific piece of equipment.

03

Design Review Prep

Need to check if the latest structural plans are available? Ask the agent to list files in the 'Structural Designs' folder and check the metadata.

04

Issue Triage

A field worker spots a conflict. Instead of logging into ACC, they ask the agent to create an issue and provide initial details.

Automate a task

Put Autodesk to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Autodesk works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Autodesk to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 10 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Autodesk, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Autodesk. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for

Built for the work Autodesk owners hand off.

This MCP is essential for professionals who spend time coordinating complex, multi-phase construction projects. It gives you a single, conversational entry point to massive amounts of data, letting you retrieve project status, audit files, and manage issues without context switching.

  • 01

    Project Managers

    Instantly retrieve project statuses, list open issues, and audit sprint progress across multiple sites.

  • 02

    VDC & BIM Leads

    Explore project data and file structures straight from your workspace, bypassing the need to open the full ACC application.

  • 03

    Field Engineers

    Quickly check asset details and update issue statuses from any device, making site audits faster.

FAQ

Questions Autodesk owners ask.

  • 01

    Does this MCP work with all Autodesk Construction Cloud features?

    It connects to the core ACC environment to manage projects, files, assets, and issues. You can audit folder structures, list projects, and track issues, giving you comprehensive coverage of the main workflows.

  • 02

    Do I need to open Autodesk Construction Cloud to use this MCP?

    No. The whole point is that you don't. You manage your construction workflows directly through your AI client, keeping your focus on the conversation, not the software interface.

  • 03

    What kind of data can I get about files?

    You can list files and subfolders, and more importantly, you can inspect the file metadata and contents. This lets you audit documents without downloading or opening them.

  • 04

    Can I use this MCP for multiple projects?

    Yes. You can list and audit accessible hubs and projects across your entire organization, making it ideal for PMs managing multiple sites.

  • 05

    How do I get my Autodesk APS Client ID and Secret?

    You need to register an application at Autodesk Platform Services. Create a 'Web App' to receive your unique Client ID and Client Secret credentials.

  • 06

    Does my account administrator need to authorize this integration?

    Yes. An Account Admin must add your Client ID under Account Admin > Settings > Custom Integrations within the Autodesk Construction Cloud dashboard for the server to access your data.

  • 07

    Can the AI help me find specific files or issues by name?

    Yes! You can ask the agent to search through your project's folders or issue lists. It will use the get_folder_contents and get_issues capabilities to filter and find the exact item you need in seconds.
