PatrickPalmer/MayaMCP

Overview

PatrickPalmer/MayaMCP is a Python implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Autodesk Maya. It enables AI agents to send commands and queries to Maya, automating tasks and integrating large language models into 3D pipelines. The server exposes Maya's API through MCP, allowing controlled script execution and scene interrogation.
