Blender MCP Server - Execute scripts, capture renders, and control 3D scenes via Claude.
Features
- 6 tools for comprehensive Blender control
- Execute arbitrary Python code with full
bpyaccess - Render scenes and return images directly to Claude
- Supports Cycles & EEVEE render engines
- Zero GUI required - runs Blender in background mode
Quick Start
For Claude Code (CLI)
# Clone and install
git clone https://github.com/kiki830621/che-blender-mcp.git
cd che-blender-mcp
pip install -e .
# Add to Claude Code
claude mcp add che-blender-mcp -- python3 -m che_blender_mcp
For Claude Desktop
Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"che-blender-mcp": {
"command": "python3",
"args": ["-m", "che_blender_mcp"],
"env": {
"BLENDER_PATH": "/Applications/Blender.app/Contents/MacOS/Blender"
}
}
}
}
Configuration
Blender Path
By default, the server looks for Blender at:
/Applications/Blender.app/Contents/MacOS/Blender
To use a different path, set the BLENDER_PATH environment variable:
Claude Code:
claude mcp add che-blender-mcp \
--env BLENDER_PATH=/path/to/blender \
-- python3 -m che_blender_mcp
Claude Desktop:
{
"mcpServers": {
"che-blender-mcp": {
"command": "python3",
"args": ["-m", "che_blender_mcp"],
"env": {
"BLENDER_PATH": "/path/to/blender"
}
}
}
}
