compositing
Blender compositor workflows for beauty stacks, render passes, color grade, glare, and delivery outputs via MCP.
npx skills add arjun988/blender-skills --skill compositing --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Compositing Pass-aware beauty stack. Subtle grade. Delivery-ready outputs. ## When to Use - Final beauty composites from Cycles/Eevee - Grade, glare, vignette, chromatic subtlety - Pass recombination (diffuse, glossy, volume, cryptomatte) - Shot delivery plates ## Workflow ``` Enable passes → Render multilayer EXR (or needed passes) → Compositor graph → Grade → FX (glare/fog glow) → Output viewer + File Output → Validate exposure ``` ## Recommended Passes | Pass | Use | |------|-----| | Beauty / Combined | Base | | DiffCol / DiffDir / DiffInd | Relight flexibility | | GlossDir / GlossCol | Spec control | | Volume | Smoke/fire isolation | | Cryptomatte Object/Material | Isolations | | Mist | Depth grade / fog | ## Beauty Stack (Default) ``` Combined → Exposure / Color Balance (AgX-aware) → Glare (fog glow / streaks sparingly) → Lens distortion (subtle) → Vignette (subtle) → Output ``` ## Grade Rules 1. Fix exposure before creative grade 2. Prefer lift/gamma/gain or color balance over crushed curves 3. Keep skin/product hues plausible 4. Match reference stills with side-by-side ## Outputs - `OUT_Beauty_[Shot]` - Optional: `OUT_Alpha`, `OUT_CryptoID` - Prefer EXR for archival; PNG/J

What does the compositing skill do?
Blender compositor workflows for beauty stacks, render passes, color grade, glare, and delivery outputs via MCP.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add arjun988/blender-skills --skill compositing --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From arjun988/blender-skills, a repository with 71 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
