Constraints docs-verified: Only Autodesk Navisworks Manage is supported; Freedom and Simulate are not supported. · Runs locally against a live Navisworks Manage session; the Navisworks instance must be open. · Setup ZIP v1.0.0 ships the 2025 plug-in only; other years must be built from source against that year's Manage SDK. · Installation paths and PowerShell steps are documented for Windows only. · Health probe can time out while Navisworks is busy. · Entry tool list covers 19 of the 33 tools documented; write-capable tools such as nwd_send_code are not in the entry list. · Version/revision alignment is not proof of compatibility or publisher trust. · Multiple running instances need a year pinned with --target or BIMWRIGHT_NWD_TARGET.
