Implementation Reference

  • The handler function decorated with @mcp.tool(), implementing the get_polyhaven_categories tool. It checks PolyHaven status, sends the command to Blender addon, receives categories, sorts them by count, and formats output.
    @mcp.tool()
    def get_polyhaven_categories(ctx: Context, asset_type: str = "hdris") -> str:
        """
        Get a list of categories for a specific asset type on Polyhaven.
        
        Parameters:
        - asset_type: The type of asset to get categories for (hdris, textures, models, all)
        """
        try:
            blender = get_blender_connection()
            if not _polyhaven_enabled:
                return "PolyHaven integration is disabled. Select it in the sidebar in BlenderMCP, then run it again."
            result = blender.send_command("get_polyhaven_categories", {"asset_type": asset_type})
            
            if "error" in result:
                return f"Error: {result['error']}"
            
            # Format the categories in a more readable way
            categories = result["categories"]
            formatted_output = f"Categories for {asset_type}:\n\n"
            
            # Sort categories by count (descending)
            sorted_categories = sorted(categories.items(), key=lambda x: x[1], reverse=True)
            
            for category, count in sorted_categories:
                formatted_output += f"- {category}: {count} assets\n"
            
            return formatted_output
        except Exception as e:
            logger.error(f"Error getting Polyhaven categories: {str(e)}")
            return f"Error getting Polyhaven categories: {str(e)}"
  • The @mcp.tool() decorator registers the get_polyhaven_categories function as an MCP tool.
