⚠ The author changed this skill after we tested it. The verdict below describes the version we ran on Jul 14, 2026; it's queued for a re-test.
Its mandatory Step-0 key-detection actually ran and correctly reported NO_KEY_FOUND in this sandbox instead of letting a request crash mid-generation on a raw 401 — a real, demonstrated safeguard, plus it explicitly bans reading model_urls off the synchronous POST response (a genuine async-API footgun a naive baseline script would hit) and gates every paid call on an upfront credit-cost confirmation.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 8/10
- Docs & honesty 5/5
What Meshy 3D Generation does
Drives the full Meshy AI 3D-asset lifecycle (text/image-to-3D, retexture, remesh, rig, animate) through direct HTTP calls, handling API-key detection, credit-cost confirmation before spending, async task polling, and structured output folders. Triggers on requests to generate, texture, rig, or animate a 3D model, but explicitly defers 3D-printing requests to a sibling meshy-3d-printing skill.
How to install Meshy 3D Generation
git clone https://github.com/meshy-dev/meshy-3d-agent
cd meshy-3d-agent
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r skills/meshy-3d-generation ~/.claude/skills/meshy-3d-generation
Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/
(per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.
Commands — how to trigger Meshy 3D Generation
-
/meshy-3d-generationText/image-to-3D, texturing, rigging and animation via the Meshy AI API, with async polling and cost gating built in.
It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:
-
Generate a 3D model of a wooden treasure chest from text -

Turn this product photo into a textured 3D model
Frequently asked questions
- Is the Meshy 3D Generation skill free?
- Yes. The skill itself is free from meshy-dev/meshy-3d-agent. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.
- Does Meshy 3D Generation work with Claude Code?
- We tested it with Claude Code 2.x (agent harness) on Jul 14, 2026. Verdict: Tested · Works. Its mandatory Step-0 key-detection actually ran and correctly reported NO_KEY_FOUND in this sandbox instead of letting a request crash mid-generation on a raw 401 — a real, demonstrated safeguard, plus it explicitly bans reading model_urls off the synchronous POST response (a genuine async-API footgun a naive baseline script would hit) and gates every paid call on an upfront credit-cost confirmation.
- What is the Meshy 3D Generation SkillProof Score?
- 9.2/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 8/10, docs & honesty 5/5.
- How do I install Meshy 3D Generation?
- Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
- Can I use Meshy 3D Generation with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
- The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
