Overview
What is Tripo MCP Server?
Tripo MCP provides an interface between AI assistants and Tripo AI via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It enables 3D asset generation from natural language and imports models into Blender through the Tripo AI Blender Addon. The project is in alpha and currently supports only Blender integration.
How to use Tripo MCP Server?
Install Python 3.10+, Blender, the Tripo AI Blender Addon, and an MCP-enabled AI assistant (Claude Desktop or Cursor IDE). Configure the MCP server by running pip install uv and adding the JSON configuration to Cursor or Claude. After enabling the addon and starting the Blender MCP server, chat with the assistant (e.g., “Generate a 3D model of a futuristic chair”) to create 3D assets.
