Summary

Control Blender from an AI client — build scenes, apply materials, and run Python against the live session.

Features

Create and modify 3D scenes through conversation
Run Python in Blender for anything not covered by a tool
Pull assets from Poly Haven and generate models with Hyper3D

Installation

Set up this MCP server in your favorite AI agent — copy a ready-made configuration below.

Any MCP-compatible agent

Most agents (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, and more) read a standard mcpServers configuration.

Open your agent's MCP configuration file.
Merge the snippet below into it.
Restart the agent — the "Blender" tools will be available.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "blender": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "blender-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add the server with a single CLI command.

claude mcp add blender -- uvx blender-mcp

Claude Desktop

Add the server to claude_desktop_config.json (Settings → Developer → Edit Config).

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "blender": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "blender-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cursor

{
  "command": "uvx",
  "args": [
    "blender-mcp"
  ]
}

Windsurf

{
  "command": "uvx",
  "args": [
    "blender-mcp"
  ]
}

VS Code

{
  "command": "uvx",
  "args": [
    "blender-mcp"
  ]
}

Description

Blender MCP connects an AI assistant to a running Blender session through an add-on, letting it inspect and modify the scene by conversation. It is one of the most visually striking demonstrations of what MCP enables.

What it can do

Scene inspection — list objects, read their transforms, materials, and hierarchy
Object creation and modification — primitives, transforms, modifiers, and parenting
Materials and lighting — create and assign materials, set up lights and world settings
Python execution in Blender's interpreter, which is the escape hatch that makes everything else possible: anything the API can do, the assistant can do
Asset integration — download models, textures, and HDRIs from Poly Haven, and generate models through Hyper3D Rodin
Rendering the current scene and viewing the result

Realistic expectations

It is excellent for scene assembly, procedural work, batch operations, and learning Blender's Python API. It is not going to model a hero character for you. The sweet spot is the tedious middle — arranging, lighting, applying consistent materials, and scripting repetitive edits.
