Installation
Download the installer
Sign in to your account page and download HuskyBIM_for_ArchiCAD_29_v1.5.49.exe from the Downloads section.
Run the installer
Double-click HuskyBIM_for_ArchiCAD_29_v1.5.49.exe and approve the Windows security prompt (enter an administrator password if asked).

When prompted, enter the email address for your free HuskyBIM account. The installer validates your account and registers the Claude Desktop extension automatically.
Restart Archicad and Claude Desktop
Start Archicad with a project file open, then restart Claude Desktop. The HuskyBIM for Archicad 29 extension will appear automatically with all 733 tools ready.

Ensure Archicad was fully restarted after installation. Open Options → Add-on Manager to confirm HuskyBIM is listed and enabled. If the Add-on does not appear, re-run the installer by double-clicking it — do not use "Run as administrator", which can place the activation under the wrong Windows account.
Make sure Archicad is running with a project open and Claude Desktop has been restarted after installation. If the extension is missing, re-run the installer.
