About this project

MCP for Blender is a third-party plugin that enables two-way communication between Blender and large language models (LLMs) like Claude. It allows users to generate, modify, and inspect 3D scenes using natural language prompts. The system consists of a Blender addon that runs a local socket server and an MCP server that bridges the LLM client with Blender. Key features include creating and manipulating objects, applying materials, executing Python code within Blender, and importing assets from Poly Haven, Sketchfab, Poly Pizza, Hyper3D Rodin, and Hunyuan3D. Setup requires installing 'uv', configuring the MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, etc.), and enabling the Blender addon. Security considerations include optional safe mode to block risky scripts. Persistent API keys can be stored in Blender preferences or environment variables. Telemetry is enabled by default but can be disabled. The tool supports Docker deployment and offers detailed troubleshooting guidance. Not officially affiliated with Blender.
