Do I need an external MCP server to run Blender MCP Senpai?
No. The add‑on includes its own MCP server component. You only need an MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) to connect to it.

Blender MCP Senpai is an AI-assisted topology mentor for Blender that detects n-gons and topology issues in real time. It integrates with ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini to provide improvement suggestions, and runs as a Blender add-on with a built-in MCP server (no external MCP process required). It is designed for 3D artists and modellers who want to improve their mesh topology.
Install the add-on in Blender (requires Blender 4.2+). No further setup is needed for the basic topology detection. To enable AI suggestions, configure an MCP-compatible client (e.g., Claude Desktop or Dive) to connect to http://localhost:13180/sse using the JSON configuration provided in the README. After restarting the client, AI comments will appear for detected topology issues.
No. The add‑on includes its own MCP server component. You only need an MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) to connect to it.
ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini are supported.
Blender 4.2 or later.
Add a JSON entry to your client as shown in the Quick Start section. For example, Claude uses `npx -y supergateway --sse http://localhost:13180/sse`; Dive uses SSE transport at the same URL. Restart the application after configuration.
The add‑on communicates via SSE (Server‑Sent Events) on `http://localhost:13180/sse`.
