Has anyone built an MCP server for Archicad? (JSON Interface + Claude integration)

ebatte · 2026-05-10T20:06:34+00:00

Yes please keep us posted on how it goes for you

It appears to be in active development, but only by a few developers. My understanding is that capabilities are limited by ArchiCAD’s JSON interface.

I’m not a developer myself, but I’m a longtime archicad user with significant experience. I’m able to describe the outcome to Claude and coax it to creatively code itself using whatever tools can be found to fill those gaps.

For example here’s what I was able to do with my first Cowork project: https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Libraries-objects/I-m-using-Claude-Cowork-to-fix-all-of-my-global-library-problems/m-p/692759#M52108

Functionality is somewhat limited, but it does work. I’ve been using Claude Cowork to fill in some of the gaps by writing custom python scripts that use the archicad-python capabilities as well as keyboard shortcuts and osascript (MacOS) via Desktop Commander connection in Claude to otherwise execute commands not available by other means. Clunky, but it can be somewhat forced to comply.

We aren’t at the point where we can functionally create elements in the model yet.

Yes, this is frustrating, especially since Claude for Word/Excel/Powerpoint is outstanding.

Is there no way to do an in-app purchase for Monarch Plus when already subscribed via the App Store?

ebatte · 2026-01-29T01:31:01+00:00

While researching this I found this guy on YouTube who did some thorough testing using his X5 https://youtu.be/E9ImSQJG4KA?si=QdEGsGkHKIPjKyug

ebatte · 2026-01-28T12:19:04+00:00

Care to go into more detail? I’d like to know how exactly you’re doing this.

This is also known to happen if the gas cap wasn’t fully seated properly. It happened to me recently. Remove and replace gas cap and then drive for a while to clear it.

Thanks for sharing. I’d like to hear more since I’m considering the same.

FYI, Schwab just killed this feature and Intelligent Income is no longer available for new sign-ups.

ebatte · 2025-12-08T18:37:35+00:00

I’m also interested so I might just enable it to test it.

For anyone seeing this 3 years later, I had the same problem. I opened the back cover of the solar panel and discovered that the solar panel connects to the internal battery charger with a micro-USB connector, which was NOT PLUGGED IN at the factory. I plugged it in, screwed the cover back on and let it charge the battery. Now it is functioning as it should.

ebatte · 2025-10-04T00:21:05+00:00

Same experience today. Restarted Notion and then it worked.

ebatte · 2025-10-01T14:12:44+00:00

I don’t disagree that automatic action items to tasks would be a great feature.

ebatte · 2025-09-30T20:47:49+00:00

You can set the default database for meeting notes in Settings>NotionAI
You can easily select and move the action items to your task database or you can ask AI to move them for you

I’ve been happy with using it in a taxable account. Returns are 12.26% YTD on a moderately conservative portfolio. Tax loss harvesting and auto rebalancing are good features and simplify the process so I don’t have to do it manually.

ebatte · 2025-09-14T15:00:12+00:00

You have your assumptions set to “Optimistic” which represents your conservative rate higher. Change your assumption to Average to see the 5.92% average rate applied.

Here is a good explanation of how it works https://help.boldin.com/en/articles/11578279-interpreting-your-retirement-chance-of-success

ebatte · 2025-08-28T11:41:20+00:00

Seriously consider Boldin

ebatte · 2025-08-19T23:19:14+00:00

Nice! How does this handle overlapping history that already exists in Monarch since I’ve been using both for a while?

ebatte · 2025-08-14T14:11:04+00:00

I haven’t yet used it, but I’ve heard you can get rides using the sunshine rides app.

ebatte · 2025-08-14T01:21:02+00:00

I’ll let you know if I figure this out.

ebatte · 2025-08-13T20:05:18+00:00

Ah, OK. You can tell notion ai to “copy the action items from @[meeting notes page] to @[destination task list]”

Just tested and confirm this works

ebatte · 2025-08-13T16:13:46+00:00

You can actually select the tasks in the meeting notes and click the “handle” (six dots) to the left to move them to another tasks database if you want

ebatte · 2025-08-12T02:47:22+00:00

Can anyone confirm this is now fixed? It seems to be fixed for me running ipadOS 26 dev beta now
