Meshy MCP Server

Officialby Meshy AIpaidverified Oct 17, 2026

Official Meshy MCP — generate, retexture, rig, and animate 3D models via API.

What it does

Meshy's official MCP server with 28 tools spanning text/image-to-3D generation, remeshing, retexturing, rigging, animation and text-to-motion, UV unwrap, format conversion, 2D image generation, 3D-print prep, and task and credit management. For filmmakers it turns character and prop creation — including rigged, animatable assets — into an agent call, with no DCC required on the machine.

Field notes

Official (meshy-dev org), MIT, TypeScript, stdio and self-hosted HTTP transports (`TRANSPORT=http`, `POST /mcp`); there is no Meshy-hosted endpoint. Checked 17 Oct 2026: npm @meshy-ai/meshy-mcp-server is 0.6.4 (13 Oct 2026), repo pushed 14 Oct 2026 after five releases in nine days, 61 stars — vendor-maintained rather than community-loved, and the cadence is now brisk. The README's preferred install is `npx add-mcp @meshy-ai/meshy-mcp-server --env MESHY_API_KEY=msy_...`, which auto-configures detected clients; the Claude Code add-json command above is still documented. The model map moved under everyone's feet: `latest` now resolves to **meshy-7.1** on most 3D endpoints, plain `meshy-7` survives only on retexture and as a deprecated id on generation, `meshy-5` is retired and `meshy-t1` deprecated — pin `ai_model` explicitly in any saved agent workflow. v0.6.x also added meshy-6-lite, meshy-t2.5 Smart Topology, Text to Motion, Auto Split, a usage tool, and stopped duplicate task creation on retries; a bad MESHY_API_KEY no longer crash-loops the server. API access requires a Meshy Pro plan or above, and every call spends credits: 3D generation is 20 mesh / 30 textured / 35 at 8K on meshy-7.1 or meshy-6, while meshy-6-lite and the Smart Topology models (`model_type: "smart-topology"`, part-separated triangle meshes) drop to 5 / 15 — the cheapest useful path for previz props. Retexture 10, Creative Lab 36 (keycap 62), remesh 5, rig 5, animate 3 per action, text-to-motion 10 (prime) or 3 (swift), convert 1, UV unwrap 5, images 3–12. Budget before you loop an agent over it.
