Buildrix: An Open Platform for Sharing and Benchmarking Agentic AI Skills in Building Engineering

Agentic AI offers significant potential to automate complex building-engineering workflows. However, most existing applications remain isolated proof-of-concept demonstrations and lack reusable domain capabilities, human-verified evaluation cases, and standardized benchmarking infrastructure. This study presents Buildrix, an open, community-driven platform for developing, sharing, executing, and evaluating agentic AI skills for building engineering. Buildrix integrates three components: a Python command-line package for developing, validating, publishing, installing, and managing skills and test cases; a web-based Hub for organizing open challenges, reusable skills, test cases, reviews, and benchmark results; and a local agent harness that supports skill discovery, external toolchain provisioning, progressive context loading, and multi-step workflow execution. Buildrix skills are organized as standardized, self-contained packages containing task instructions, executable scripts, dependencies, and supporting resources. Quantitative test cases can be verified by domain experts and promoted to golden test cases for reproducible benchmark evaluation. Buildrix provides an open foundation for reusable capability development, transparent evaluation, and community-driven advancement of agentic AI in building engineering.
