blender-render

Use render_scene for short stills. Use start_render_job for animation or multi-layer EXR or display-ready PNG output so the interactive Blender process remains responsive; poll with get_render_job and cancel only through the returned job id.

Use start_multiview_render_job for a bounded camera list (up to 8) and beauty/wire PNG deliverables. It saves an isolated copy of the current scene without changing the live filename, selection, materials, or settings. The worker uses factory startup with automatic scripts disabled. External assets must remain accessible; add-on-generated render dependencies are not loaded. Beauty uses the saved render engine (Cycles uses CPU) but bypasses compositor and sequencer to contain file output. Resolution is explicit and border rendering is disabled. Cameras render the current saved frame; camera animation markers are not used to select views.
