--- name: meshy-3d-agent description: Generate 3D models, textures, images, rig characters, animate them, and prepare for 3D printing using the Meshy AI API. Handles API key detection, task creation, polling, downloading, and full 3D print pipeline with slicer integration. Use when the user asks to create 3D models, convert text/images to 3D, texture models, rig or animate characters, 3D print a model, or interact with the Meshy API. license: MIT-0 compatibility: Requires Python 3 with requests package. Compatible with OpenClaw and all Agent Skills tools. metadata: openclaw: primaryEnv: MESHY_API_KEY requires: env: - MESHY_API_KEY bins: - python3 - curl install: - kind: uv package: requests allowed-tools: Bash, Write --- # Meshy 3D — Generation + Printing Directly communicate with the Meshy AI API to generate and print 3D assets. Covers the complete lifecycle: API key setup, task creation, exponential backoff polling, downloading, multi-step pipelines, and 3D print preparation with slicer integration. --- ## SECURITY MANIFEST **Environment variables accessed:** - `MESHY_API_KEY` — API authentication token sent in HTTP `Authorization: Bearer` header only. Never logged, never written to any file except `.env` in the current working directory when explicitly requested by the user. **External network endpoints:** - `https://api.meshy.ai` — Meshy AI API (task creation, status polling, model/image downloads) **File system access:** - Read: `.env` in the current working directory only (API key lookup) - Write: `.env` in the current working directory only (API key storage, only on user request) - Write: `./meshy_output/` in the current working directory (downloaded model files, metadata) - Read: files explicitly provided by the user (e.g., local images passed for image-to-3D conversion), accessed only at the exact path the user specifies - No access to home directories, shell profiles, or any path outside the above **Data leaving this machine:** - API requests to `api.meshy.ai` include the `MESHY_API_KEY` in the Authorization header and user-provided text prompts or image URLs. No other local data is transmitted. Downloaded model files are saved locally only. --- ## IMPORTANT: First-Use Session Notice When this skill is first activated in a session, inform the user: > All generated files will be saved to `meshy_output/` in the current working directory. Each project gets its own folder (`{YYYYMMDD_HHmmss}_{prompt}_{id}/`) with model files, textures, thumbnails, and metadata. History is tracked in `meshy_output/history.json`. This only needs to be said **once per session**. --- ## IMPORTANT: File Organization All downloaded files MUST go into a structured `meshy_output/` directory in the current working directory. **Do NOT scatter files randomly.** - Each project: `meshy_output/{YYYYMMDD_HHmmss}_{prompt_slug}_{task_id_prefix}/` - Chained tasks (preview → refine → rig) reuse the same `project_dir` - Track tasks in `metadata.json` per project, and global `history.json` - Auto-download thumbnails alongside models --- ## IMPORTANT: Shell Command Rules Use only standard POSIX tools. Do NOT use `rg`, `fd`, `bat`, `exa`/`eza`. --- ## IMPORTANT: Run Long Tasks Properly Meshy generation takes 1–5 minutes. Write the entire create → poll → download flow as **ONE Python script** and execute in a single Bash call. Use `python3 -u script.py` for unbuffered output. Tasks sitting at 99% for 30–120s is normal finalization — do NOT interrupt. --- ## Step 0: API Key Detection (ALWAYS RUN FIRST) **Only check the current session environment and the `.env` file in the current working directory. Do NOT scan home directories or shell profile files.** ```bash echo "=== Meshy API Key Detection ===" # 1. Check current env var if [ -n "$MESHY_API_KEY" ]; then echo "ENV_VAR: FOUND (${MESHY_API_KEY:0:8}...)" else echo "ENV_VAR: NOT_FOUND" fi # 2. Check .env in current working directory only if [ -f ".env" ] && grep -q "MESHY_API_KEY" ".env" 2>/dev/null; then echo "DOTENV(.env): FOUND" export MESHY_API_KEY=$(grep "^MESHY_API_KEY=" ".env" | head -1 | cut -d'=' -f2- | tr -d '"'"'" ) fi # 3. Final status if [ -n "$MESHY_API_KEY" ]; then echo "READY: key=${MESHY_API_KEY:0:8}..." else echo "READY: NO_KEY_FOUND" fi # 4. Python requests check python3 -c "import requests; print('PYTHON_REQUESTS: OK')" 2>/dev/null || echo "PYTHON_REQUESTS: MISSING (run: pip install requests)" echo "=== Detection Complete ===" ``` ### Decision After Detection - **Key found** → Proceed to Step 1. - **Key NOT found** → Go to Step 0a. - **Python requests missing** → Run `pip install requests`. --- ## Step 0a: API Key Setup (Only If No Key Found) Tell the user: > To use the Meshy API, you need an API key: > > 1. Go to **https://www.meshy.ai/settings/api** > 2. Click **"Create API Key"**, name it, and copy the key (starts with `msy_`) > 3. The key is shown **only once** — save it somewhere safe > > **Note:** API access requires a **Pro plan or above**. Free-tier accounts cannot create API keys. Once the user provides the key, set it for the current session and optionally persist to `.env`: ```bash # Set for current session only export MESHY_API_KEY="msy_PASTE_KEY_HERE" # Verify the key STATUS=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $MESHY_API_KEY" \ https://api.meshy.ai/openapi/v1/balance) if [ "$STATUS" = "200" ]; then BALANCE=$(curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $MESHY_API_KEY" https://api.meshy.ai/openapi/v1/balance) echo "Key valid. $BALANCE" else echo "Key invalid (HTTP $STATUS). Please check the key and try again." fi ``` **To persist the key (current project only):** ```bash # Write to .env in current working directory echo [REDACTED_SECRET] >> .env echo "Saved to .env" # IMPORTANT: add .env to .gitignore to avoid leaking the key grep -q "^\.env" .gitignore 2>/dev/null || echo ".env" >> .gitignore echo ".env added to .gitignore" ``` > **Security reminder:** The key is stored only in `.env` in your current project directory. Never commit this file to version control. `.env` has been automatically added to `.gitignore`. --- ## Step 1: Confirm Plan With User Before Spending Credits **CRITICAL**: Before creating any task, present the user with a cost summary and wait for confirmation: ``` I'll generate a 3D model of "<prompt>" using the following plan: 1. Preview (mesh generation) — 20 credits 2. Refine (texturing with PBR) — 10 credits 3. Download as .glb Total cost: 30 credits Current balance: <N> credits Shall I proceed? ``` For multi-step pipelines (text-to-3d → rig → animate), show the FULL pipeline cost upfront. > **Note:** Rigging automatically includes walking + running animations at no extra cost. Only add `Animate` (3 credits) for custom animations beyond those. ### Intent → API Mapping | User wants to... | API | Endpoint | Credits | |---|---|---|---| | 3D model from text | Text to 3D | `POST /openapi/v2/text-to-3d` | 20 + 10 | | 3D model from one image | Image to 3D | `POST /openapi/v1/image-to-3d` | 20–30 | | 3D model from multiple images | Multi-Image to 3D | `POST /openapi/v1/multi-image-to-3d` | 20–30 | | New textures on existing model | Retexture | `POST /openapi/v1/retexture` | 10 | | Change mesh format/topology | Remesh | `POST /openapi/v1/remesh` | 5 | | Add skeleton to character | Auto-Rigging | `POST /openapi/v1/rigging` | 5 | | Animate a rigged character | Animation | `POST /openapi/v1/animations` | 3 | | 2D image from text | Text to Image | `POST /openapi/v1/text-to-image` | 3–9 | | Transform a 2D image | Image to Image | `POST /openapi/v1/image-to-image` | 3–9 | | Check credit balance | Balance | `GET /openapi/v1/balance` | 0 | | 3D print a model | → See Print Pipeline section | — | 20 | --- ## Step 2: Execute the Workflow ### Reusable Script Template Use this as the base for ALL workflows.

Adjust based on user request (e.g. "print at 15cm" → `150.0`). **Opening OBJ in slicer:** When the user specifies a slicer (e.g. Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer, Creality Print, PrusaSlicer, Cura), open the downloaded OBJ file directly: - **macOS**: `subprocess.run(["open", "-a", "<AppName>", obj_path])` — the OS resolves the app location automatically. - **Windows / Linux**: Use `shutil.which("<binary_name>")` to find the executable in PATH, then `subprocess.Popen([exe, obj_path])`. If not found, print the file path and instruct manual open. - **No slicer specified**: Print the OBJ file path and instruct: File → Import / Open → select .obj file. ### Printability Checklist (Manual Review) > Automated printability analysis API is coming soon. | Check | Recommendation | |-------|---------------| | Wall thickness | Min 1.2mm FDM, 0.8mm resin | | Overhangs | Keep below 45° or add supports | | Manifold mesh | Watertight, no holes | | Minimum detail | 0.4mm FDM, 0.05mm resin | | Base stability | Flat base or add brim/raft in slicer | | Floating parts | All parts connected or printed separately | ### Multi-Color Printing (Manual Guidance) > Automated multi-color API is coming soon. 1. Use **Retexture** (10 credits) to apply distinct color regions 2. Download OBJ 3. In slicer's color painting tool, assign filament colors to regions 4. Slice with multi-color setup (Bambu AMS, Prusa MMU) --- ## Step 3: Report Results After task succeeds: 1. Downloaded file paths and sizes 2. Task IDs (for follow-up: refine, rig, retexture) 3. Available formats (list `model_urls` keys) 4. Credits consumed + current balance 5. Suggested next steps: - Preview done → "Want to refine (add textures)?" - Model done → "Want to rig this character?" - Rigged → "Want to apply a custom animation?" - Any model → "Want to 3D print this?" --- ## Error Recovery | HTTP Status | Meaning | Action | |---|---|---| | 401 | Invalid API key | Re-run Step 0; ask user to check key | | 402 | Insufficient credits | Show balance, link https://www.meshy.ai/pricing | | 422 | Cannot process | Explain (e.g., non-humanoid for rigging) | | 429 | Rate limited | Auto-retry after 5s (max 3 times) | | 5xx | Server error | Auto-retry after 10s (once) | Task `FAILED` messages: - `"The server is busy..."` → retry with backoff (5s, 10s, 20s) - `"Internal server error."` → simplify prompt, retry once --- ## Known Behaviors & Constraints - **99% stall**: Normal finalization (30–120s). Do NOT interrupt. - **Asset retention**: Files deleted after **3 days** (non-Enterprise). Download immediately. - **PBR maps**: Must set `enable_pbr: true` explicitly. - **Refine**: Only `meshy-5` / `latest` previews support refine; `meshy-6` does not. - **Rigging**: Humanoid bipedal only, polycount ≤ 300,000. - **OBJ for printing**: Always download OBJ for slicer compatibility (3MF not yet available from API). If user specifies a slicer, try to open OBJ directly; otherwise print file path for manual import. - **Timestamps**: All API timestamps are Unix epoch **milliseconds**. --- ## Execution Checklist - [ ] Ran API key detection (Step 0) — checked env var and `.env` only - [ ] API key verified (never printed in full) - [ ] Presented cost summary and got user confirmation - [ ] Wrote complete workflow as single Python script - [ ] Ran with `python3 -u` for unbuffered output - [ ] Reported file paths, formats, task IDs, and balance - [ ] Suggested next steps --- ## Additional Resources For the complete API endpoint reference including all parameters, response schemas, and error codes, read [reference.md](reference.md).
