What it does

Deploy Addon is an agent skill from shuotao/REVIT_MCP_study. Deploy the built RevitMCP.dll to the correct Revit Add-ins folder for a specified version (Windows only)

Its SKILL.md is about 740 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: LEARN HOW TO BUILD UP YOUR REVIT MCP.

Example prompts

  • “/deploy-addon”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Check source DLL: Verify MCP/bin/Release.R{YY}/RevitMCP.dll exists (where {YY} matches the target version, e.g. Release.R24 for Revit 2024).
  2. Check if Revit is running: Run tasklist | grep -i revit to detect Revit process.
  3. Create target directory if it doesn't exist
  4. Copy DLL
  5. Verify: Confirm the file exists at the target path and show its timestamp.
  6. Report success

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2faacc5. 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 powershell).

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Deploy Addon loads about 739 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 29 tokens; SKILL.md has 230 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~29
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~739

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 230 words (~739 tokens).

“Deploy RevitMCP.dll to the Revit Add-ins directory for the selected version.”
