# Adom Desktop — Blender Bridge

Drive **Blender** from a cloud AI (or any Adom Desktop caller) on the user's real machine. The bridge auto-installs a portable Blender, opens the GUI, runs Python inside Blender, moves meshes in and out, and renders thumbnails — so an agent can do real 3D work end-to-end without the user touching Blender.

## What it does
- **Auto-install** a portable Blender — no manual setup; auto-detects an existing Blender first.
- **Open the GUI** and **run Python scripts** inside Blender's interpreter.
- **Import / export meshes** — GLB, FBX, OBJ, STL.
- **Render thumbnails** of a scene or object.

Language: **Python**.

## Platforms
| OS | Status | Notes |
|----|--------|-------|
| Windows | ✅ Supported | |
| macOS | ✅ Supported | Auto-detects `/Applications/Blender.app`; installer points at the `.dmg` (manual drag) when Blender isn't present. |
| Linux | ✅ Supported | Auto-installs the portable `tar.xz`; auto-detects `blender` on PATH. |

## Using it from Adom Desktop
This is a generic Adom Desktop bridge. It appears in the **Bridges** sidebar of the Adom Desktop app, where you can see its live status, logs, ports, and per-bridge controls. Adom Desktop streams and runs the bridge on demand — install or manage it from the app or via the `bridge_*` verbs.

> Adom Desktop is the host that bridges cloud AI tools to local desktop applications. See the [Adom Desktop](https://wiki.adom.inc/adom/adom-desktop) page.
