KeyShot MCP

An open-source Model Context Protocol server that allows AI agents to control KeyShot Studio via headless scripting. It enables users to inspect saved scenes, adjust materials and cameras, review previews, and render images without interacting with the live GUI, ensuring original files remain unmodified.
