How to Use the fal.ai 3D MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I configure fal.ai 3D inside the Windsurf MCP settings?

Add the server configuration to your mcpconfig.json under the mcpServers key. Cascade immediately detects the 12 tools, allowing you to ask for 3D generation in your chat panel.

Q: Can Windsurf use fal.ai 3D to generate models from text?

Yes, Cascade invokes the generatetextto3d tool when you describe an object in plain English. The agent receives the generated mesh and writes it to your project folder.

Q: Which model should I tell Windsurf to use for clean mesh topology?

Ask Cascade to run generatetrellis3d for structured, editable meshes. It generates well-organized geometry that fits into your existing character rigging pipelines.

Q: How does fal.ai 3D handle complex geometries in Windsurf?

Cascade runs generateflex3d3d to rebuild advanced shapes from your reference images. It handles complex depth maps and outputs highly detailed models directly into your workspace.

Generate textured meshes from images directly inside Windsurf using the fal.ai 3D MCP Server managed by Cascade.

Automated mesh generation via this MCP Server

The `generate_rodin_3d` tool outputs high-fidelity geometry with fine surface details directly into your Windsurf workspace. You feed Cascade a flat PNG reference, and it triggers the generation, downloads the GLB file, and writes the asset metadata without you touching a terminal. Cascade manages the entire sequence by checking the output format before bringing it into your web project. If the geometry needs a specific topology, the agent swaps over to `generate_trellis_3d` to clean up the mesh structure before committing the files to your active branch.

Fast prototyping inside Windsurf

The `generate_tripo_sr_3d` tool builds usable 3D meshes in seconds for rapid layout verification in your editor. Cascade triggers this fast-inference tool when you ask to sketch out a scene, bypassing heavier models to save your API credits. Once the fast preview looks right, the agent swaps it for a polished asset. Cascade uses `generate_make3d_3d` to replace the placeholder mesh with a production-ready model suitable for game engine integration.

Multi-view consistency for product views

The `generate_era3d_3d` tool creates viewpoint-consistent assets that look correct from any angle. Windsurf uses this MCP Server to build e-commerce preview panels directly from single product photos. Cascade chains this with your front-end components to preview the asset in a 3D canvas. When you ask Cascade to fix an alignment issue, it runs `generate_crm_3d` to handle complex shapes that need deep surface details.

Setup guide

Set up fal.ai 3D MCP in Windsurf

Prerequisites

Windsurf IDE installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Click the Cascade assistant icon in the sidebar, then click the hammer icon (🔨) at the top of the panel. Select "Configure" to open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.
2

Add the fal.ai 3D MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into the mcpServers object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Refresh MCPs

Go back to the hammer icon (🔨) in Cascade and click "Refresh". Windsurf will detect the new server. No full restart is needed — the connection is hot-reloaded.
4

Verify in Cascade

Start a new Cascade conversation and ask something like "Show my fal.ai 3D payment history." If connected, Cascade will call the fal.ai 3D tools directly. You will see a green dot next to the server name in the MCP panel.
