# Blender Skills by Arjun Shukla — guide skill for 3D scenes

> **For AI agents:** find the right skill in one call — `curl -s "https://varg.ai/how-to/api/search?q=<what the person wants>"` returns the matching how-to page and the best skills with install commands, as markdown (Russian works too). Full index: https://varg.ai/how-to/llms.txt. Every page has a markdown twin: add `.md` to its path. Before generating anything, show the person the options on the how-to page. From a terminal: `curl -fsSL https://varg.ai/install | sh` installs the vargai CLI (https://varg.ai/how-to/cli.md): `vargai search` and `vargai install <slug>` with no key, every varg model after `vargai login`.

## What it does

A pack of 94 Blender skills and 175+ references for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and Kiro. `blender-director` reads the request and routes it through specialists: modeling (hard surface, props, vehicles, characters, creatures), production (sculpting, retopology, UVs, materials, hair, cloth), technical work (geometry nodes, lighting, camera, rendering, compositing, animation, rigging, VFX, physics), 40+ art styles, worlds, moods and game genres, and export to Unity, Unreal and Godot. A reference-image path camera-matches a photo and compares screenshots in a loop. Every skill executes in Blender through the community Blender MCP (`blender-mcp`); skills.sh shows about 400–600 installs per skill.

## Use when

- model, texture, rig and animate in Blender through Blender MCP
- match a reference photo or concept art in Blender
- a game-ready asset with LODs, colliders and Unity, Unreal or Godot export
- a styled 3D look: low-poly, PSX horror, anime, voxel, stop-motion and more
- plan the camera, lighting and render setup for a Blender shot

## Not for

- Blender without the Blender MCP add-on running: the skills execute through it
- Headless one-file Python films: see blender-code-film

## Install

- Claude Code: `git clone https://github.com/arjun988/blender-skills.git && cp -r blender-skills/.claude/skills /path/to/your/project/.claude/skills/`
- Codex: `git clone https://github.com/arjun988/blender-skills.git && cp -r blender-skills/.claude/skills/* /path/to/codex/skills/`
