  "summary": "dRofus is automatable today through first-party REST APIs against a cloud-hosted project database, with Windows desktop and regional web clients. The database REST API publishes OpenAPI, regional hosts including api-no.drofus.com, OAuth2 Bearer tokens whose client registration is currently manual via support, HTTP Basic for testing, and read-only API-key access using the Authorization Reference scheme (with a Basic apikey fallback). Queries use a documented OData subset ($select, $orderby, $filter, $top, $skip) and RFC5988 next links. Interactive project-specific OpenAPI requires login. A separate Admin system REST API uses Basic Auth on regional admin hosts such as adm-us.drofus.com and supports GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE for projects, users, databases, and statistics. BIM connections include Revit, Archicad, Autodesk Construction Cloud, and IFC; those are product add-ins, not assessed Zapier-class connectors. No first-party MCP, general CLI, or computer-use result was established. This record is dRofus requirements and space-planning data. It is not Revit.\n"
