How I Built a Blender AI Plugin That Generates 3D Models from Text: 3D-Agent

GL on November 26, 2025

TLDR: I built Cursor for Blender which generates clean wireframes. Let me start with a confession. I'm a terrible 3D artist. Like, genuinely bad....

Not available for Linux? (I only discovered this after signing up, so this could be made more clear, earlier in the process). The Windows installer and agent binary run under Wine, and I was able to install the add-on Python script, but then get errors when the agent calls in to Blender (v5). Sad times.

Hey Andy, thank you for you for the feedback. Unfortunately we do not have support for Linux as of now. We have this in the pipeline and will update to support Linux. We have others asking as well :)

Interesting Christian, are you focusing on blender as well?

No, It is using #rust and #bevy, an arkanoid clone, named brkrs that is rendered in 3D (seems like overkill, but this is because I need a gentle introduction into 3D game development, and it makes for nice optics).

I will need 3D models in the future though ;-)

I see, very cool! Give me your feedback when you try 3D-Agent, it is very good for 3D game development! Cheers!

This is a game changer, blender-mcp was impossible to use

Thank you! What applications are you mainly using 3D-Agent or Blender AI tools for?

That’s awesome! Do you plan to add support for animation or rigging as well or is it mainly for static 3D objects right now?

Hi Sharon, thank you! Yes it does support animation and rigging as well, it is not something I have tested fully but the AI has access to those functions and it works. Have you tried downloading it? Join our discord: discord.com/invite/NxKFCvHQpg

Vibe 3D and Vibe design is a thing. I tried using blender-mcp but that was too hard to install for me. Will def take a look at 3d agent!

Would love to hear any feedback! This project was inspired by blender-mcp so kudos to them!
