What cao_importer_ifc does on Immobilier
AI agents use cao_importer_ifc to create or update resources in Immobilier, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Immobilier environment.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
ifc | string | Yes | IFC file content as STEP text (IFC2X3 or IFC4). |
metres | boolean | — | Compute quantities (metrés) of the imported scene. |
studio | boolean | — | Open a 4K video studio and a VR tour of the imported model (URLs). |
conflits | boolean | — | Detect clashes in the IFC itself (volumes; GlobalIds kept). |
controler | boolean | — | Run our checks (audit, integrity, drawing set) on the imported scene. |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why cao_importer_ifc is rated Medium
An AI agent can call cao_importer_ifc faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Immobilier by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

The rule that runs cao_importer_ifc safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Immobilier, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For cao_importer_ifc, this is the rule to start with:
cao_importer_ifc stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Immobilier, apply this rule, and every cao_importer_ifc call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about cao_importer_ifc
WHEN an architect sends an IFC (Revit, Archicad… IFC2X3 or IFC4) and you must check it with our rules: converts the IFC text into a CAO scene — walls, doors and windows on their host wall, straight stair flights, railings, named rooms, furniture, roof — each element keeping its GlobalId (ifc_guid). Returns {scene, rapport, controles, metres}: controles = the cao_verifier audit, metres = quantities; conflits:true adds clashes, studio:true opens the 4K video studio and the VR tour of the imported model. Reuse scene with every other cao_* tool. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Immobilier MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
cao_importer_ifc accepts 5 parameters: ifc, metres, studio, conflits, controler. Required: ifc. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Immobilier MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for cao_importer_ifc: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Immobilier. Nothing to install.
cao_importer_ifc is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the cao_importer_ifc rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for cao_importer_ifc. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
cao_importer_ifc is provided by the Immobilier MCP server (https://synergieloc.fr/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
