What it can do
- Each skill is a SKILL.md that tells the assistant what code to generate for one construction task, from estimates and budget tracking to daily reports and schedule delay analysis.
- Converter skills turn RVT/RFA and DWG files into Excel tables of elements, properties and quantities through DDC's own exporters, without opening Revit or AutoCAD.
- An XML reader skill parses Primavera P6 XML exports into activities, resources and WBS tables.
- Schedule skills cover critical path analysis, look-ahead planning, delay analysis and 4D links between BIM elements and schedule activities.
Limitations
- Most skills generate generic Python; only a few target a specific tool's files, and none drive a running copy of P6, Revit or AutoCAD.
- The README gives both 221 and 238 as the number of skills.
- The converter skills depend on DDC's RvtExporter and DwgExporter binaries, which run on Windows.
