Introduction
What is OpenForge MCP?
OpenForge MCP is a free tool that lets you control Unity and Blender just by talking to an AI.
You will see the term "MCP" -- it stands for Model Context Protocol, a standard for connecting AI to applications. Don't worry about the technical details. Think of it like Bluetooth pairing your phone with headphones: MCP pairs an AI with the software you use (Unity, Blender, Godot).
In practice, you simply tell the AI what you want in plain English, and the AI operates Unity or Blender directly. No code required.
Get started in 3 steps
Getting up and running with OpenForge MCP is straightforward.
Step 1 -- Install
Install Node.js, then run npx openforge-mcp setup in a terminal.
View the installation guide -->
Step 2 -- Add the plugin
Install the plugin for your app (Unity / Blender / Godot).
- Unity
- Blender
- Godot
Add the plugin via Unity Package Manager. See Unity Plugin for details.
Install the Blender add-on. See Blender Add-on for details.
Install the Godot plugin. See Godot Plugin for details.
Step 3 -- Talk to the AI
Open an AI client (such as Claude Desktop) and describe what you want to build.
What can it do?
Here are a few examples -- just tell the AI what you want and it builds it for you.
- Unity examples
- Blender examples
- Godot examples
World building:
"Build a ruined city. Line up about three crumbling buildings, add cracks to the road, and set the lighting to a sunset atmosphere."
Game development:
"Create a mechanic where the door opens automatically when the player gets close."
"Set up ragdoll physics on the character so it collapses naturally when it falls."
See the Scene Building tutorial for more.
3D Modeling:
"Make a neon sign. The word 'OPEN' should be glowing, and the frame should look like rusted metal."
"Model a hat for an avatar. A wide-brimmed bucket hat in beige."
See the Modeling tutorial for more.
Game development:
"Build a basic 2D platformer stage. Place the ground and some platforms, and add a player character."
"Attach a patrol behavior script to the enemy character."
See the First Steps tutorial for more.
These are just a few examples. Share your idea and the AI will bring it to life.
Four key features of OpenForge MCP
1. The AI sees the result and fixes it on its own
The AI can inspect its own work. If it notices something is off -- say an object is slightly misplaced -- it corrects the issue without you having to point it out. Less back-and-forth means less frustration.
2. Cross-app in a single conversation
You can say "Model this in Blender, then bring it into Unity and place it in the scene" -- all in one conversation. No manual file transfers, no switching between apps.
See the Cross-App tutorial for details.
3. Save and restore like a video game
Say "Save the current state" and it is saved. Say "Go back to the previous state" and it is restored. It works just like save and load in a game.
See the Save & Restore tutorial for details.
4. The AI playtests your game and finds bugs
You can ask "Play through this game and check for anything wrong." The AI runs the game itself and reports any bugs or oddities it finds.
See the AI Playtest tutorial for details.
Who is this for?
- VRChat world and avatar creators -- No 3D modeling or programming knowledge required
- Solo game developers -- Powerful support for indie developers juggling every role
- Students learning 3D CG -- Learn by doing, with the AI as your guide
- Hobbyist creators -- If you have an idea, the AI lowers the technical barriers
No programming experience is needed. Just describe what you want and get started.
Completely free
OpenForge MCP is completely free and will stay that way. It is released under the MIT license, an open-source license that means anyone can use it freely, including for commercial projects.
