Connect agents to an open Houdini session for procedural 3D workflows. For Codex, 2 routes are explicitly documented by the integration maintainer.
A local MCP bridge exposes tools for editing an active Houdini session.
Platforms: macOS, Windows, Linux
The integration documentation explicitly names this client.
Houdini 20.0 or newer and its Python runtime with the installed Houdini package.
Requires an active Houdini session; this connection is not headless.
An MCP server and Houdini package expose procedural workflows to coding agents.
Platforms: Not documented
The integration documentation explicitly names this client.
Houdini 20.5 or newer and Python 3.10 or newer outside Houdini.
The server and Houdini package both need to be configured before use.
| Integration | Codex compatibility | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Houdini MCP · rheadsh | Documented setup Setup guide | Houdini 20.0 or newer and its Python runtime with the installed Houdini package. |
| FX Houdini MCP | Documented setup Setup guide | Houdini 20.5 or newer and Python 3.10 or newer outside Houdini. |
The sources establish the capabilities listed above, not complete application coverage. Check each bridge’s limitations and your application version before starting.
Choose a route that explicitly documents Codex and matches your environment. Start with the maintainer’s setup guide and a disposable project copy. Shared MCP support alone is listed as an inference.
