Extract structured data from IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) files using IfcOpenShell.

What it does

Ifc Data Extraction is an agent skill from datadrivenconstruction/DDC_Skills_for_AI_Agents_in_Construction. Extract structured data from IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) files using IfcOpenShell. Parse BIM models, extract quantities, properties, spatial relationships, and export to various formats.

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 Marketing & SEO, covering Schema markup. 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 Schema markup

Example prompts

  • “/ifc-data-extraction”

Requirements

  • Python 3

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).

    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):

    • ifcopenshell.org
    • buildingsmart.org
    • datadrivenconstruction.io

    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 Data Extraction loads about 4.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 148 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~53
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 Data Extraction

Overview

This skill provides comprehensive IFC file parsing and data extraction using IfcOpenShell. Extract element data, quantities, properties, and relationships from BIM models for analysis and reporting.

Based on Open BIM Standards - Working with vendor-neutral IFC format for maximum interoperability.

"IFC является открытым стандартом для обмена BIM-данными, позволяющим извлекать информацию независимо от программного обеспечения." — DDC Methodology

Quick Start

python
import ifcopenshell
import ifcopenshell.util.element as element_util
import pandas as pd

# Open IFC file
ifc = ifcopenshell.open("model.ifc")

# Get project info
project = ifc.by_type("IfcProject")[0]
print(f"Project: {project.Name}")

# Extract all walls
walls = ifc.by_type("IfcWall")
print(f"Total walls: {len(walls)}")

# Get wall data
wall_data = []
for wall in walls:
    psets = element_util.get_psets(wall)
    wall_data.append({
        'GlobalId': wall.GlobalId,
        'Name': wall.Name,
        'Type': wall.is_a(),
        'Level': get_level(wall),
        'Properties': psets
    })

df = pd.DataFrame(wall_data)
print(df.head())
