What send_code_to_revit does on Revit

AI agents invoke send_code_to_revit to trigger actions in Revit. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Why send_code_to_revit needs a policy

This tool executes arbitrary user-supplied C# code within Revit, giving full programmatic access to the BIM model. An AI agent could run any code including destructive operations (delete elements, modify structure), data exfiltration, or other unintended side effects. The blast radius is critical because there are no apparent sandboxing constraints mentioned, and the code runs with full Revit Document access.

From the tool's definition "Send C# code to Revit for execution" — arbitrary C# code is executed inside Revit's environment with access to the Document and parameters
