At a glance

Convert IFC files (2x3, 4x1, 4x3) to Excel databases using IfcExporter CLI.

  • Works in 3 steps: Model Validation → Quantity Takeoff → Material Schedule
  • Tasks that involve Excel spreadsheets
  • SKILL.md covers Business Case, Technical Implementation, Output Structure and Quick Start, plus 3 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Ifc To Excel is an agent skill from datadrivenconstruction/DDC_Skills_for_AI_Agents_in_Construction. Convert IFC files (2x3, 4x1, 4x3) to Excel databases using IfcExporter CLI. Extract BIM data, properties, and geometry without proprietary software.

Its SKILL.md is about 4.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `claw.json` and `instructions.md`).

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Excel spreadsheets. It works with Microsoft Excel. The repository describes itself as: 221 AI skills for construction: BIM analysis, cost estimation, scheduling, document control, and automation with Claude Code. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Excel spreadsheets

Example prompts

  • “/ifc-to-excel”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Model Validation
  2. Quantity Takeoff
  3. Material Schedule

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ce45bbf. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are python and bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com
    • buildingsmart.org

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ifc To Excel loads about 4.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 271 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~40
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

IFC to Excel Conversion

Business Case

Problem Statement

IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) is the open BIM standard, but:

  • Reading IFC requires specialized software
  • Property extraction needs programming knowledge
  • Batch processing is manual and time-consuming
  • Integration with analytics tools is complex
Solution

IfcExporter.exe converts IFC files to structured Excel databases, making BIM data accessible for analysis, validation, and reporting.

Business Value
  • Open standard - Process any IFC file (2x3, 4x, 4.3)
  • No licenses - Works offline without BIM software
  • Data extraction - All properties, quantities, materials
  • 3D geometry - Export to Collada DAE format
  • Pipeline ready - Integrate with ETL workflows

Quick Start

python
# Initialize exporter
exporter = IFCExporter("C:/DDC/IfcExporter.exe")

# Convert IFC to Excel
xlsx = exporter.convert("C:/Models/Building.ifc", include_bbox=True)

# Read elements
df = exporter.read_elements(str(xlsx))
print(f"Total elements: {len(df)}")

# Get element types
types = exporter.get_element_types(str(xlsx))
print(types)

# Get quantities by type
qto = exporter.get_quantities(str(xlsx), group_by='IfcType')
print(qto)

Common Use Cases

1. Model Validation
python
exporter = IFCExporter()
xlsx = exporter.convert("model.ifc")
validation = exporter.validate_ifc_data(str(xlsx))

if not validation['is_valid']:
    print("Issues found:")
    for issue in validation['issues']:
        print(f"  - {issue}")
2. Quantity Takeoff
python
qto_generator = IFCQuantityTakeoff(exporter)
qto = qto_generator.generate_qto("building.ifc")

for category, data in qto.items():
    print(f"\n{category}:")
    print(data.to_string(index=False))
3. Material Schedule
python
xlsx = exporter.convert("building.ifc")
materials = exporter.get_materials(str(xlsx))
print(materials)

Integration with DDC Pipeline

python
# Full pipeline: IFC → Excel → Validation → Cost Estimate
exporter = IFCExporter("C:/DDC/IfcExporter.exe")

# 1. Convert IFC
xlsx = exporter.convert("project.ifc", include_bbox=True)

# 2. Validate data
validation = exporter.validate_ifc_data(str(xlsx))
print(f"Valid: {validation['is_valid']}")

# 3. Generate QTO
qto = IFCQuantityTakeoff(exporter)
quantities = qto.generate_qto("project.ifc")

# 4. Export for cost estimation
qto.export_to_excel(quantities, "project_qto.xlsx")
