• src/blender_mcp/server.py:577-653 (handler)

  The MCP tool handler for 'search_sketchfab_models'. It defines the tool using @mcp.tool() decorator, specifies input parameters (query, categories, count, downloadable), and implements the logic by forwarding the search parameters to the Blender addon via the socket connection using blender.send_command('search_sketchfab_models', params). Formats and returns the search results from Sketchfab.
