# Meshy 3D Generation

Directly communicate with the Meshy AI API to generate 3D assets. This skill handles the complete lifecycle: environment setup, API key detection, task creation, polling, downloading, and chaining multi-step pipelines.

All paths below are relative to **this skill's own directory** (the directory containing this SKILL.md). Resolve them before running.

| Resource | When to use |
|---|---|
| `scripts/meshy_task.py` | Bundled CLI for every API call and file operation (Step 2) |
| [reference.md](reference.md) | Full API reference: every parameter, response schema, error code |
| [references/setup.md](references/setup.md) | API key setup — read when Step 0 finds no key |
| [references/pipelines.md](references/pipelines.md) | Per-endpoint recipes: exact payloads + script calls for each workflow |
| [references/troubleshooting.md](references/troubleshooting.md) | Error recovery trees and task failure messages |

## Security & Data Handling

- **API key (`MESHY_API_KEY`)** — sent only in the HTTP `Authorization: Bearer` header to `https://api.meshy.ai`. Never logged in full (only a `key[:8]...` prefix is ever printed). The bundled script never persists it; it is written to `.env` in the current working directory *only* when the user explicitly asks, and never to shell profiles, Windows user variables, or any path outside the working directory (see [references/setup.md](references/setup.md)).
- **Key sources read** — the current session environment, then `.env` / `.env.local` in the current working directory. Home directories and shell profiles are never scanned.
- **Network** — the only external endpoint is `https://api.meshy.ai`. System proxies are bypassed (`trust_env = False`) so the key is never handed to an environment-configured proxy.
- **Filesystem writes** — `.env` in the working directory (on explicit request only) and `./meshy_output/` for downloaded models, thumbnails, and metadata. Input files (e.g. local images for image-to-3D) are read only at the exact path the user provides.
- **Data leaving the machine** — the API key, user-provided text prompts, and image URLs/data go to `api.meshy.ai` only. No other local data is transmitted; downloaded assets are saved locally.

## IMPORTANT: 3D Printing → Use `meshy-3d-printing` Skill

**If the user's request involves 3D printing** (keywords: print, 3d print, slicer, slice, bambu, orca, prusa, cura, multicolor, 3mf, figurine, miniature, statue, physical model), **use the `meshy-3d-printing` skill instead of this one for the entire workflow.** The printing skill handles generation with correct print-optimized parameters (e.g. `target_formats` with `"3mf"` for multicolor), slicer detection, coordinate conversion, and slicer launch — all in one pipeline.

This skill's `scripts/meshy_task.py` is reused by the printing skill, but the **workflow orchestration** (what to generate, which formats, what to do after) must come from the printing skill when printing is involved.

**Do NOT generate a model with this skill and then hand off to the printing skill** — the printing skill needs to control parameters from the start (e.g. `target_formats`, `should_texture`).

---

## 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**, at the beginning.

## 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 gets its own folder: `meshy_output/{YYYYMMDD_HHmmss}_{prompt_slug}_{task_id_prefix}/`
- For 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

The bundled CLI implements this: `project-dir`, `record`, and `thumbnail` subcommands.

---

## IMPORTANT: Shell Command Rules

**Use only standard POSIX tools in shell commands.** Do NOT use `rg` (ripgrep), `fd`, or other non-standard CLI tools — they may not be installed. Use these standard alternatives instead:

| Do NOT use | Use instead |
|---|---|
| `rg` | `grep` |
| `fd` | `find` |
| `bat` | `cat` |
| `exa` / `eza` | `ls` |

---

## IMPORTANT: Run Long Tasks Properly

Meshy generation tasks take 1–5 minutes. When polling for completion:

- The bundled CLI prints unbuffered progress in real time — run each `poll` as a single Bash call and let it finish.
- Be patient with long-running polls — do NOT interrupt or kill them prematurely. Tasks at 99% for 30–120s is normal finalization, not a failure.
- Pass a larger `--timeout` (e.g. `--timeout 600`) for heavy tasks instead of retrying a timed-out poll.

---

## IMPORTANT: Never Rebuild Bundled Scripts

`scripts/meshy_task.py` is the single source of truth for `create_task` / `poll_task` / `download` / `get_project_dir` / `record_task` / `save_thumbnail`. **Never retype, paraphrase, or "reconstruct" these helpers from memory** — not even partially. Compose CLI calls in bash, or write a small Python script that does `sys.path.insert(0, "<this skill's scripts dir>")` and `from meshy_task import ...`. Reimplementing them inline causes silent behavior drift and doubles the token cost of every run.

---

## Step 0: Environment Detection (ALWAYS RUN FIRST)

Before any API call, run the bundled environment check:

**Only check the current session environment and `.env` files in the current working directory. Do NOT scan home directories or shell profile files.**

```bash
python3 scripts/meshy_task.py check-env
```

It reports `ENV_VAR` (current environment), `DOTENV` (`.env` / `.env.local` in the working directory), `PYTHON_REQUESTS`, and a final `READY:` line. The bundled CLI loads the key itself (env var → `.env` → `.env.local`), so no manual `export` is needed to use it.

### Decision After Detection

- **`READY: key=...`** → Proceed to Step 1.
- **`READY: NO_KEY_FOUND`** → Go to Step 0a.
- **`PYTHON_REQUESTS: MISSING`** → Run `pip install requests`.

## Step 0a: API Key Setup (Only If No Key Found)

Follow [references/setup.md](references/setup.md). It walks the user through creating a key at https://www.meshy.ai/settings/api (Pro plan required), setting it for the **current session only**, and verifying it against `GET /openapi/v1/balance`.

**Never persist the key yourself** — no shell profiles, no Windows user environment variables, no file outside the current working directory. The only exception is `.env` in the working directory, and only when the user explicitly asks. Otherwise print the persistence instructions and let the user apply them.

## Step 1: Confirm Plan With User Before Spending Credits

**CRITICAL**: Before creating any task, present the user with a summary and get confirmation:

```
I'll generate a 3D model of "<prompt>" using the following plan:

  1. Preview (mesh generation) — 5-20 credits (meshy-6/lowpoly: 20, others: 5)
  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 (e.g., text-to-3d → rig → animate), present the FULL pipeline cost upfront:

| Step | API | Credits |
|---|---|---|
| Preview | Text to 3D | 20 |
| Refine | Text to 3D | 10 |
| Rig | Auto-Rigging | 5 |
| **Total** | | **35** |

> **Note:** Rigging automatically includes basic walking + running animations for free (in `result.basic_animations`). Only add `Animate` (3 credits) if the user needs a custom animation beyond walking/running.

Wait for user confirmation before executing.

| Check credit balance | Balance | `GET /openapi/v1/balance` | 0 |

## Step 2: Execute the Workflow

### CRITICAL: Async Task Model

All generation endpoints return `{"result": "<task_id>"}`, NOT the model. You MUST poll.

**NEVER** read `model_urls` from the POST response.

### The Bundled CLI: `scripts/meshy_task.py`

Every workflow is a sequence of calls to the bundled CLI — do not write your own API code:

| Subcommand | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `check-env` | Step 0 environment report |
| `balance` | Current credit balance |
| `create --endpoint E (--payload JSON \| --payload-file F)` | Create a task; prints the new task ID |
| `poll --endpoint E --task-id ID [--timeout 300] [--project-dir D]` | Poll to completion; saves the task JSON into the project dir |
| `get --endpoint E --task-id ID [--save F]` | One-shot status / progress / face_count check |
| `download (--url U \| --task-json F [--format FMT]) --output PATH` | Stream-download a model file |
| `project-dir --task-id ID [--prompt P]` | Create + print the project folder path |
| `record --project-dir D --task-id ID --task-type T --stage S [--files "a,b"]` | Update `metadata.json` + `history.json` |
| `thumbnail --project-dir D (--url U \| --task-json F)` | Save the project thumbnail |
| `check-faces --endpoint E --task-id ID
