Clean Topology directly in Claude Desktop

`generate_trellis_3d` outputs structured meshes with organized topology from any image you drop into the chat. Claude Desktop runs this local subprocess to fetch clean, editable geometries that don't require hours of manual retopology. If you need rigging-ready assets, `generate_triposg_3d` formats the output structure for game engine integration. Your agent handles the API calls and downloads the resulting files straight to your local directory.

Fast-track 3D Previews via this MCP Server

`generate_tripo_sr_3d` spits out textured 3D meshes in seconds when you need to validate a concept. This MCP Server connects Claude Desktop directly to high-speed inference endpoints so you can iterate on ideas without waiting. For real-time applications, `generate_instantmesh_3d` generates instant previews from single reference images. Your agent handles the background processing while you keep writing your design document.

Text-to-3D and Variations in Your Chat

`generate_text_to_3d` builds assets from plain English descriptions without requiring a starting image. You type what you want, Claude Desktop calls the endpoint, and you get a 3D model back. When you need creative iterations on a single input, `generate_unique3d_3d` generates diverse geometric interpretations. The tool returns multiple variations so you can pick the best fit.
