.blend URL Viewer

Simon Willison demos a .blend URL viewer built with GPT-6 Astra in Codex and ChatGPT Images 2.5 generating Blender models.

Simon Willison used ChatGPT Images 2.5 to generate a Faberge egg concept image themed after the TV show Pluribus, then had Codex running GPT-6 Astra (high) execute a Blender local skill to build a 3D model from it. He published the result as a .blend URL viewer tool and continues experimenting with agentic Blender workflows. The post is a hands-on demo of AI-driven creative tooling rather than a security or release announcement.

Using Blender with coding agents on macOS

Simon Willison demonstrates driving the Blender macOS app with ChatGPT Codex coding agents to render scenes via Python, costing roughly $4.24 at API rates.

Willison documents installing the full Blender application from blender.org and using ChatGPT Codex on macOS to render a pelican-riding-a-bicycle scene through Blender's Python API. He refined the output with follow-up prompts. AgentsView estimated the equivalent API cost at $4.24 for gpt-6-astra.
