Why we like it

GH Script Manager earns its place in the superhive library by keeping script creation, browsing, and execution within a single sidebar panel.

What is Gh Script Manager?

GH Script Manager is a Blender addon by ghostWDFR that lets you create, manage, and run Python scripts directly from the sidebar. It sits in the N-panel under the GH Tools tab, presenting an organized UI with collapsible sections for browsing and launching scripts from one place.

You can create new scripts with a single click, open the script folder directly from Blender, and refresh the script list on demand. Custom external editor support means you can hook up an editor such as Notepad++ or VS Code. After installation and first use, the addon generates two internal configuration files: config.txt for user preferences and saved_path.txt for the scripts folder path, which initially points to the default folder and updates when you set a custom one.

The addon works on Windows, macOS, and Linux and is compatible with Blender 3.6 through 5.2+. It is distributed as an installable archive, GH Script Manager.zip, and released under the GPL license. A demo video is available.
