Before your first Blender session

Preview store. Payments remain in sandbox.

# Quick start / Inicio rápido

Read INSTALL.md first. Requires Blender, Node.js 18+ and a configured MCP client. AI usage is not included in the purchase. Verified environment: macOS / Blender 5.2.1. Other operating systems require independent validation.

1. Extract the complete ZIP to a permanent folder.
2. Install the included add-on using the platform instructions in INSTALL.md.
3. Open Blender and verify the kernel status in the MCP Max sidebar.
4. Configure your client to run Node with the absolute path to server/blender-mcp.mjs.
5. Ask for bx_status. If it fails, confirm Blender is open, the kernel is running and the client path is correct.
6. Open examples/01-start.blend to practice. Save a copy before editing.

## Ten starter instructions

These map to operations exercised in demo/evidence.json. Natural-language behavior depends on the model; wording itself is not a deterministic test.

1. **Connection** — Run bx_status and report the Blender version. Do not change my scene.

2. **Scene inspection** — List objects, cameras and lights in my scene. Explain what is missing before rendering.

3. **First object** — In a new test file, create a torus named DemoRing at (0,0,1.1), radius 1, rotated 75 degrees on X.

4. **Ceramic material** — Give DemoRing an orange ceramic material called DemoFinish.

5. **Studio** — Load workflows and set up a product studio around DemoRing with a 960 by 640 camera.

6. **First render** — Render the scene at 960 by 640 in EEVEE and show me the returned image.

7. **Material revision** — Change DemoFinish to dark blue metal, metallic 0.9 and roughness 0.28.

8. **Lighting correction** — Reduce the scene lights to 65 percent of their current energy. Move the camera 12 percent closer to DemoRing without changing its direction. Render again.

9. **Preflight** — Load workflows, audit this scene and explain every reported issue. Do not fix anything yet.

10. **Save** — Save and pack the project to a new absolute path I choose. Do not overwrite an existing project.

## Included projects

examples/01-start.blend: initial ceramic scene.
examples/02-finish.blend: revised metal scene, reduced light and closer camera.
examples/03-product-concept.blend: optional speaker project generated in Blender; not evidence of a complete MCP interaction.

## Limits

Texture baking with Cycles remains unverified in the tested environment. No guarantee of identical results across AI models. Grease Pencil authoring, sculpt brush strokes, texture painting, motion tracking and fluid/smoke have no dedicated validated tools.

Installation support scope: connection and installation troubleshooting, not custom modeling or training. Public support address and response policy must be established before commercial release.
