Ids Checker

What This Skill Does

The Ids Checker is a specialized OpenClaw agent skill designed to validate Building Information Modeling (BIM) data against established Information Delivery Specifications (IDS). By automating the audit process, this skill ensures that complex architectural and construction models adhere to predefined data standards. It systematically scans BIM models for missing properties, incorrect classifications, and non-compliant attributes that could otherwise lead to costly errors during the construction lifecycle. The skill leverages a robust internal structure to define requirements—such as Entity type, Property Sets, and Material specifications—enabling users to enforce strict compliance across their project data automatically.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, use the OpenClaw command-line interface. Run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/datadrivenconstruction/ids-checker Ensure your project environment has the necessary dependencies for data processing, such as pandas, installed to handle the validation outputs.

Use Cases

• Quality Assurance: Automatically verify that all mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) components contain required fire-rating attributes before export.
• Contractual Compliance: Ensure vendor-submitted BIM models contain the exact data fields mandated by the client's information requirements (EIR).
• Lifecycle Maintenance: Audit existing models to ensure facility management properties exist, allowing for smoother handovers to operations teams.

Example Prompts

1. "Check the current Revit export file against the 'HOSPITAL-V2' IDS specification and list all entities missing the 'FireRating' property."
2. "Validate the structural steel model to ensure all beams are correctly classified according to the IFC2x3 standard and report any violations."
3. "Generate a compliance report for the current BIM project comparing existing material data against the project's sustainability requirements."

Tips & Limitations

To get the most out of the Ids Checker, maintain clearly defined IDS schemas. The accuracy of the validation is directly proportional to how well the requirements are structured within the specification files. Currently, the skill focuses on data-centric validation and does not perform geometric clash detection. It is best used as a supplement to geometric checking tools rather than a full replacement. Ensure your source files are serialized in a format readable by the parser to avoid input errors during the validation cycle.
