blender-syntax-data

Quick Reference

Scope

This skill covers Blender data management:

• Collections: hierarchy, visibility, object membership
• Library linking/appending: bpy.data.libraries.load()
• Library overrides: local editable copies of linked data (4.0+)
• Asset system: marking, metadata, catalogs, AssetRepresentation
• Data blocks: creation, removal, fake users, orphan cleanup
• Data transfer: moving data between .blend files

Critical Warnings

NEVER rename scene.collection — the root Scene Collection is read-only for name and cannot be deleted.

NEVER use proxies in Blender 4.0+ — proxies were completely removed. Use library overrides instead.
