Maya MCP is an MCP server implementation for Autodesk Maya, letting clients such as Claude Desktop drive the application through natural language. Its current tool set is deliberately small, with the README stating that architecture and simplicity were the initial focus rather than coverage. list_objects_by_type enumerates what is in the scene with a filter for cameras, lights, materials or shapes, which is how the model orients itself before acting. create_object adds primitives and scene elements — cube, cone, sphere, cylinder, camera, spot light, point light and directional light. get_object_attributes and set_object_attributes read and write attributes on any Maya object, and this pair is what gives the small tool set reach: because Maya exposes almost everything as node attributes, generic get and set covers transforms, material parameters and light properties without a dedicated tool for each. scene_new starts a fresh scene, with a force argument for discarding unsaved changes. It is written in Python and tested against Maya 2023 and 2025, at version 0.2.0. The audience is technical artists and pipeline developers in film, games or visual effects who want to script scene setup conversationally, and who should expect to extend it.
