Our answer to revit-mcp's ai_element_filter, but stronger: a structured query the
model can trust without knowing Revit's internal feet or exact BuiltInParameter
names.
- predicates [{parameter, op, value}] combined by all/any; ops eq/ne/gt/lt/gte/lte,
contains/starts_with, exists/not_exists.
- unit-aware pseudo-parameters computed from geometry: length(mm), height(mm),
area(m2), volume(m3), elevation(mm), plus name/type/family/level/category and
any parameter by fuzzy display name.
- scope by on_level and/or in_active_view.
- optional aggregate {op: count|sum|avg|min|max, parameter} rolls up the matched
set in the same call (e.g. total wall length in one round-trip).
Registered as a core tool.

- Stamp the numeric version onto the assembly at release build time (-p:Version). - UpdateChecker: reports the running version and queries the latest GitHub release; compares numerically; surfaces the installer URL. Best-effort/non-fatal. - Chat pane footer shows a clickable '⬆ vX.Y available' when a newer release exists (opens the installer); loaded DLLs can't self-replace while Revit runs, so it's notify-only, user installs on their terms. - Help window title shows the current version.

Split the long single-scroll settings into tabs (same x:Names, so behaviour is unchanged): General (API key, code exec, confirmations, balance, max rounds), Models (Auto advisor/executor, diagnostics, alternative provider), Subscription (MCP) (server, port, config, Claude Code path), Tools (tool groups), and a new About tab showing the current version with a 'Check for updates' button. RU/EN localization for the tab headers and About section. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01RCGB6xWx3ZtmWZRQEJtN6B
…ilter_elements Consolidate the feet<->mm/m2/m3 conversions that were copy-pasted as magic numbers / per-file helpers across ~19 tools into one pure, unit-tested Units class (10 tests: exact-foot, round-trips, area/volume powers). Migrate the new filter_elements to it. Remaining call sites will move over in follow-up passes (kept small and build/test-verified since the geometry can't be run here).

…ovements P1 (blocking for RU users): the prompt is written to the claude CLI's stdin, but StandardInputEncoding was unset, so on a Russian Windows .NET encoded it as CP1251/OEM and the model received mojibake for the free-text request (the JSON doc context survived only because the serializer \u-escapes it). Force UTF-8 (no BOM) on stdin. Nice-to-have: inline the selection's per-category breakdown (SelectionService already tracks CategoryCounts) into the context, so 'what's selected?' needs no tool call. P3: get_element_parameters now de-dupes by parameter name (Revit exposes the same display name as built-in + shared) and takes a relevant_only flag to drop empty/none values — a compact, cheaper payload.

…DME) P2 follow-up: even though the client may defer the 180 MCP tool schemas, the initialize instructions now include a compact index of every available tool (name + one-line description, grouped by category) so the model calls the right tool by name directly — no discovery round-trips. Generated once, cached, and mirrored to %AppData%\ClaudeRevit\tools-catalog.md. README feature list updated (filter_elements, tool index, update check, tabbed settings).

filter_elements— unit-aware element filter (mm/m²/m³ pseudo-parameters from geometry), AND/OR predicates, level/active-view scoping, and count/sum/avg/min/max aggregate in one call. Our stronger answer to revit-mcp'sai_element_filter.get_element_parameters— de-dup by name +relevant_onlyflag.tools-catalog.md.Unitshelper (feet↔metric), 10 tests (30 total).🤖 Generated with Claude Code
