- Homepage: https://github.com/sandraschi/blender-mcp

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "blender_animation",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why blender_animation is rated High

The description is empty, so confidence is reduced. Based on the server context and the tool name, this tool likely creates or manipulates animations in Blender. Animation operations typically involve both writing data (keyframes, timelines) and executing Blender operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'blender_animation' on a server described as enabling control of Blender to 'create, manipulate, and automate 3D scenes, objects, materials, animations'"

## Use case

AI agents invoke blender_animation to trigger actions in Blender. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Blender:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "blender_animation": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "blender_animation_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
