Pick Replicate Flux MCP if you want a verified, documented setup.

Add BlenderMCP

Install / run

uvx blender-mcp

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "blendermcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "blender-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Requires `uv` (the Python package runner). Install it from https://docs.astral.sh/uv/ if `uvx` is not found.

npx -y replicate-flux-mcp

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "replicate-flux-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "replicate-flux-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
