MCP.Pizza Chef: VAST-AI-Research

Sixteen tools sit behind this, though only four touch Tripo itself: making a model from text, making one from a picture, checking how far along it is, and pulling the finished result into your scene. The rest are borrowed from the blender-mcp project and move objects around, apply materials, and fetch free textures from Poly Haven. Blender must be open with Tripo's own add-on running, and your Tripo account supplies the key. Each generation takes three to five minutes and spends credits.

README

Tripo MCP Server

Tripo MCP provides an interface between AI assistants and Tripo AI via Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Note: This project is in alpha. Currently, it supports Tripo Blender Addon integration.

Current Features

  • Generate 3D asset from natural language using Tripo's API and import to Blender
  • Compatible with Claude and other MCP-enabled AI assistants

Quick Start

Prerequisites

Installation

  1. Install Tripo AI Blender Addon from Tripo AI's website

  2. Configure the MCP server in Claude Desktop or Cursor.

    • pip install uv
    • set mcp in cursor
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "tripo-mcp": {
          "command": "uvx",
          "args": [
            "tripo-mcp"
          ]
        }
      }
    }
    • Then you will get a green dot like this: img

Usage

  1. Enable Tripo AI Blender Addon and start blender mcp server.

  2. Chat using cursor or claude. E.g., "Generate a 3D model of a futuristic chair".

tripo-mcp FAQ

Can I use this to make a 3D model just by describing it?
Yes, that is the headline feature. You describe the object, wait three to five minutes, and the finished model lands in your Blender scene.
Do I need Blender?
Yes, and there is no way around it. Blender must be installed, open, and running Tripo's own add-on. Nothing here works without it.
Does it cost money?
You need a Tripo account, and every generation spends credits. The free plan gives 200 credits a month, roughly eight models. Paid plans start around fourteen dollars a month.
Where do I put my Tripo key?
Not in your chat app's settings. The server asks the Blender add-on for it, so you sign into Tripo inside Blender and it picks the key up from there.
Can I use the models commercially?
Not on the free plan. Tripo puts commercial use rights behind its paid tiers, so check your plan before putting a generated model into client work.
Which apps does it work in?
Claude Desktop and Cursor are documented, plus any other app that supports MCP servers.
Is there a setting to size the model automatically?
The documentation mentions one, but it does not exist in the code. Only your description and a face-count limit are actually passed along.
Is it finished software?
No. The authors label it alpha, and the last code change was April 2025.
