About MCP for Blender (blender-mcp)
MCP for Blender is a community integration, not made by Blender, for prompt-assisted 3D modelling, scene creation and manipulation. A Blender addon talks to an MCP server run with uv. The PyPI package was renamed from blender-mcp to mcp-for-blender; existing blender-mcp configurations keep working.
MCP for Blender (blender-mcp) is listed in this index written primarily in Python, with 33k stars on GitHub. Its latest recorded repository push was in October 2026; that is not an ASE editorial review date.
Before connecting: access and data
This record's specific permissions have not been reviewed by ASE. Read the publisher's documentation before copying setup or connecting.
- List the accounts, files and services the enabled tools can read, change or execute. Check your actual credentials and discovered tools.
- Use narrowly scoped credentials and read-only mode where supported. Review proposed writes before approving them; a generated configuration does not apply these limits for you.
- Local launch is not local-only data processing. External services receive requests, and your client may pass tool results to its model provider. Check both destinations before sharing private data.
- Keep keys and browser session files out of shared config, repositories and screenshots. Know how to disconnect the server and separately revoke its credentials or account sessions.
