Blender MCP Servers for Claude Code, Codex & Cursor

A community MCP bridge connects an agent to Blender through an installed add-on.

Integration documentation

Blender integrations and connections

MCP · Live app

MCP for Blender

A community server and Blender add-on exposing scene and object operations.

Platforms: macOS, Windows, Linux

Claude Code · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Codex · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Cursor · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Requirements and limitations

Blender, uv, MCP server and enabled Blender add-on.

Arbitrary Python execution is available. Review safe-mode documentation. External generation services are optional and may require accounts.

CLI · Headless workflow

Blender command line

Blender’s command line supports background rendering and Python automation.

Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux

Claude Code · Not documented

The native interface is documented, but no setup for this coding agent is established by this source.

Codex · Not documented

The native interface is documented, but no setup for this coding agent is established by this source.

Cursor · Not documented

The native interface is documented, but no setup for this coding agent is established by this source.

Requirements and limitations

An installed Blender executable, project files and any script or render dependencies.

Background operations run in a separate Blender process rather than controlling the open editor session.

MCP · Live app

Blender MCP · RFingAdam

A Blender add-on and local server for scene editing, modeling and rendering.

Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux

Claude Code · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Codex · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Cursor · MCP compatible

MCP support suggests compatibility; this client is not documented by the maintainer.

Requirements and limitations

Blender 4.2 LTS or Blender 5.0; the Blender add-on and MCP server.

The add-on must be enabled in a running Blender session; optional generation backends have additional dependencies.

MCP · Live app

BlendRelay MCP

A Blender add-on and MCP server for scene creation and interactive modeling.

Platforms: Not documented

Claude Code · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Codex · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Cursor · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Requirements and limitations

Blender 4.5 or newer with the BlendRelay add-on and a compatible MCP client.

Blender and the add-on must remain open and connected; some generation workflows use external models.

MCP · Live & file workflows

Blender MCP · djeada

A Blender add-on and server for scene work in the editor or headless renders.

Platforms: macOS, Linux

Claude Code · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Codex · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Cursor · MCP compatible

MCP support suggests compatibility; this client is not documented by the maintainer.

Requirements and limitations

Blender 3.6 or newer, Python 3.10 or newer, and the companion add-on.

The quick-start scripts target macOS and Linux; headless operations run separately from the live editor.

MCP · Live app

Blender MCP · josuemontano

An MCP server and Blender addon support scene and object operations.

Platforms: macOS, Windows, Linux

Claude Code · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Codex · MCP compatible

MCP support suggests compatibility; this client is not documented by the maintainer.

Cursor · Documented

The integration documentation explicitly names this client.

Requirements and limitations

Blender 5.1 or newer, Python 3.13 or newer, pipx and the Blender addon.

The Blender addon and server must both be running for a live connection.

MCP · Live app

Blender Lab MCP Server

A Blender Lab add-on and MCP server connect an AI client to the Blender Python API.

Platforms: Not specified

Claude Code · MCP compatible

The documentation describes general MCP client support but does not name this agent.

Codex · MCP compatible

The documentation describes general MCP client support but does not name this agent.

Cursor · MCP compatible

The documentation describes general MCP client support but does not name this agent.

Requirements and limitations

Blender 5.1 or newer, the Blender Lab add-on, an MCP server and an AI client.

The server can execute generated Python code in Blender; the Blender Lab documentation warns that it has no safeguards for sensitive data.

Questions before setup

Does one integration cover every workflow?

No such claim is made. Check the capability list, requirements and limitations of each route, then test a copy of a representative project.
