Michael runs a two-person architecture practice and wants Revit on an always-on VM so an AI agent can drive the model while both architects sleep. We break down whether that's actually buildable.

The community servers that do run arbitrary code are the ones with an unauthenticated TCP port open on every interface. Then there's the blind test: the native MCP counted 32 walls where there were 57, while a dumb IFC export answered every question…
