Architecture
- Runtime: Cloudflare Workers
- Auth: APS OAuth2 (client_credentials)
Part of ScanBIM Labs AEC MCP Ecosystem
MIT — ScanBIM Labs LLC
Authentication
Two accepted header formats. Use one, do NOT mix:
x-scanbim-api-key: <your_user_key>— value is the user_key verbatim.Authorization: Bearer sk_scanbim_<your_user_key>— value is the entire string including thesk_scanbim_prefix; the D1user_keycolumn must match this full string.
Mixing formats auto-creates a fresh free-plan row for the alternate key (you'll silently get a new 50-credit account on each switch).
Get your user_key at scanbim.app/settings/billing.
Example
curl -X POST https://mcp.scanbimlabs.io/unified/mcp \
-H "content-type: application/json" \
-H "x-scanbim-api-key: $SCANBIM_USER_KEY" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"list_models","arguments":{}}}'
Response codes
200— tool call proceeded; credits debited.401— missing or malformed auth header (middleware returns JSON-RPC error code-32001).402— insufficient credits; response body includescheckout_urlsfor all 5 credit packs andtop_up_urlfor the billing page.
