Ship and run a Blender extension after its first install: bundled wheels, user data that survives upgrades via bpy.utils.extension_path_user, the network permission and bpy.app.online_access, bl_ext package names, and blender --command extension validate/build/server-generate in CI. Use when the user bundles third-party Python packages, pip-installs into Blender's Python, writes files next to __file__, needs a settings or cache directory, makes network calls from an add-on, or builds and…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Extension Runtime and Packaging ## Trigger Use this skill when the user: - Needs a third-party Python package inside an extension (`requests`, `numpy`, `Pillow`) - Writes settings, caches or downloads from an add-on and asks where they should go - Makes network calls from an add-on, or asks about the `network` permission - Builds, validates or publishes extension zips, locally or in CI - Hits `ValueError: The "package" does not name an extension`, or imports that work in a folder add-on but break once installed as an extension `addon-scaffolding` covers the manifest fields, file layout and register symmetry. This skill covers what breaks after that: dependencies, data, network and packaging. ## Required inputs - **Extension `id`** from `blender_manifest.toml` (the installed package is `bl_ext.<repo>.<id>`) - **Target Blender versions**. The bundled Python differs: 3.11 on 4.5 LTS, 3.13 on 5.2 LTS (`sys.version_info` measured on 4.5.11 and 5.2.1) - **Third-party packages** the code imports, and whether any ship compiled code - **Whether the add-on touches the network** ## Where things live once installed …

How to install
mdr add tmhsdigital/blender-developer-tools/extension-runtime-and-packaging@sha256:77eca96be6bfe461The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.4aeb805, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
