MCP_Manage

MCP_Manage: Specialized Tool Orchestration

9. bdb_blender_mcp & bdb_blender_mcp_fallback (Blender MCP Servers)

   • Capabilities: ahujasid socket-based BlenderMCP and djeada python server fallback. Scene inspection, material control, object manipulation, rendering.

10. bdb_after_effects_mcp & bdb_after_effects_mcp_fallback (After Effects MCP Servers)

    • Capabilities: Dakkshin Node server and sunqirui1987 Go+ fallback. Compositions creation, layers styling, solid/shape preset renders, and ExtendScript triggers.

11. bdb_vectorworks_mcp (Vectorworks CAD/BIM)

    • Capabilities: RAG-based search, command, and wiki indexer by togawamanabu. Guides the AI to write correct scripts and manage CAD data hierarchies.

12. bdb_td_minddesigner & bdb_td_backup (TouchDesigner MCP Servers)

    • Capabilities: Pantani tdmcp MindDesigner TOP/CHOP node builder and 8beeeaaat fallback direct parameter controller.

13. zavora_computer_use (Zavora Computer Use)

    • Capabilities: Take screenshots, move mouse, type text, press keys, read/write clipboard, window activation. Pre-compiled Rust native NAPI binaries.

How to use them

• When the user asks to manipulate lighting, target bdb_grandma3_mcp or bdb_resolume_mcp.
• When working on CAD or game environments, invoke bdb_rhino_mcp, bdb_unreal_mcp, or bdb_blender_mcp.
• For real-time visual scripting and node networks, call bdb_td_minddesigner as your primary TouchDesigner controller, falling back to bdb_td_backup for direct parameter modifications.
• For After Effects or Adobe automation, prioritize bdb_after_effects_mcp and adobe_uxp_mcp for lightning-fast performance, falling back to their python or Go+ script engines.
• Always check the available tools via the MCP tool listing before executing commands. If a server is down, instruct the user to verify the mcp_config.json configuration and ensure the respective host applications are running with API/OSC/Lua/network plugins enabled.

Overview

MCP_Manage is the authoritative router for all specialized BDB Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, ensuring the AI agent selects the right tool for Unreal, Rhino, DaVinci, and others.

When to Use

• Trigger: The user asks how to automate a specific creative app, or the agent needs to select the correct MCP server for a domain-specific task.
• Exclude: Do not use for general file system operations or generic web searches.

Core Process

1. Identify the target creative application (e.g., TouchDesigner, Rhino, DaVinci Resolve).
2. Look up the primary MCP server and its fallback in the available list.
3. Instruct the user to verify the application is running and the MCP config is correct if the server is unreachable.
4. Call the appropriate server tool to execute the automation.

Common Rationalizations

Red Flags

• Recommending generic OS scripts when a dedicated MCP server (like bdb_rhino_mcp) exists.
• Failing to suggest checking mcp_config.json when a server connection fails.
• Using a fallback server without first attempting the primary optimized server.

Verification

• The correct MCP server was invoked based on the target application.
• Fallbacks were only utilized if the primary server failed.
• The agent verified the required host application was running.
