Description
Blender has no built-in way to talk to an AI — but you can connect Claude to it in about five minutes, and then build and debug scenes by just typing what you want.
In this step-by-step tutorial I'll walk through the full official setup: the Blender 5.1 requirement, installing the MCP add-on the right way (you have to drag it in twice, and almost nobody tells you that), connecting your LLM client, and getting the MCP server talking to Blender. I'll also cover the security warning Blender publishes about this, plus fixes for when the connection won't establish.
