    "<strong>Claude Code:</strong> <code>/plugin marketplace add TMHSDigital/Blender-Developer-Tools@plugin-dist</code> then <code>/plugin install blender-developer-tools@blender-developer-tools</code>. The 20 skills load when a task matches; the rules come along as the <code>blender-rules</code> skill",
    "<strong>Cursor:</strong> <code>git clone --branch plugin-dist --single-branch https://github.com/TMHSDigital/Blender-Developer-Tools.git ~/.cursor/plugins/local/blender-developer-tools</code>, then reload the window; Customize lists the 20 skills and 11 rules, and the plugin applies the rules for you. This clones only the 0.3 MB plugin build, not <code>main</code>",
    "<strong>Other agents (Codex, Copilot, Windsurf):</strong> clone the same slim build (<code>git clone --branch plugin-dist --single-branch https://github.com/TMHSDigital/Blender-Developer-Tools.git</code>) and copy its <code>skills/*</code> into <code>.agents/skills/</code>, append <code>exports/AGENTS.md</code> to your project's <code>AGENTS.md</code> for the rules, and for Copilot copy <code>exports/copilot/blender-python.instructions.md</code> into <code>.github/instructions/</code>",
    "<strong>Optional, live session:</strong> <code>/plugin install blender-live-session@blender-developer-tools</code> adds the official Blender Lab MCP server (needs <code>uv</code> and Blender 5.1+ with its add-on) so the agent can inspect and drive your open scene, plus a skill that has it read before it mutates and prove changes headless. See the README's <a href=\"https://github.com/TMHSDigital/Blender-Developer-Tools#live-blender-session-mcp\">Live Blender session</a>",
