## Description

Bonsai_mcp is a specialized MCP server that connects Claude to Blender, enabling direct interaction with IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) models through the Bonsai BIM addon. It provides five dedicated IFC tools for querying project information, listing entities, examining properties, exploring spatial structures, and analyzing relationships between building elements. The implementation includes both a Blender addon that creates a socket server within Blender and a Python MCP server that implements the protocol, making it particularly valuable for architects, engineers, and construction professionals who need to analyze and interact with building information models through natural language.
