Rodin3D Skills

A Skill for generating 3D models from image/multiview images or text prompts using the Hyper3D Rodin Gen-2 API.

Overview

This skill enables AI to generate high-quality 3D models through the Hyper3D Rodin Gen-2 API. It supports both image-to-3D and text-to-3D generation, with multiple output formats and quality tiers.

Features

• Generate 3D models from single or multiple images (up to 5 images)
• Generate 3D models from text descriptions
• Support for multiple output formats: GLB, USDZ, FBX, OBJ, STL
• Five generation tiers: Gen-2, Detail, Smooth, Regular, Sketch
• Automatic task status polling and result retrieval
• Advanced parameters for material, mesh mode, seed values, and more

Installation

Prerequisites

• Claude Code CLI installed
• Hyper3D API Key (obtain from https://hyper3d.ai/api-dashboard)
• Python 3.7+ (for backend scripts)

Method 1: Install from Marketplace (Recommended)

The easiest way to install this skill is through the Claude Code plugin marketplace:

1. Add the marketplace (one-time setup):

   /plugin marketplace add DeemosTech/rodin3d-skills
   

2. Install the plugin:

   /plugin install rodin3d-skill@rodin3d-skills
   

3. Install Python dependencies:

   pip install requests pillow
   

4. Set your API key:

   export HYPER3D_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
   

   Or create a .env file in your project:

   echo 'HYPER3D_API_KEY=your_api_key_here' > .env
   echo '.env' >> .gitignore
   

That's it! The skill is now available as /rodin3d-skill in Claude Code.

Method 2: Manual Installation

If you prefer to install manually or want to develop locally:

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/DeemosTech/rodin3d-skills.git
   cd rodin3d-skills
   

2. Install Python dependencies:

   cd skills/rodin3d-skill
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

3. Add the local marketplace:

   /plugin marketplace add /path/to/rodin3d-skills
   /plugin install rodin3d-skill@rodin3d-skills
   

4. Set your API key (same as Method 1, step 4)

Verify Installation

After installation, verify the skill is available:

/plugin list

You should see rodin3d-skill in the list of enabled plugins.

Updating the Plugin

To update to the latest version:

/plugin marketplace update rodin3d-skills
/plugin update rodin3d-skill@rodin3d-skills

Usage

Using the Skill

Once installed, you can interact with this skill through:

Generate from image:

Please generate a 3D model from this image: [provide image path]

Generate from text:

Please generate a 3D model of a medieval castle with high quality

Generate from multiple images:

Please generate a 3D model from these images: [provide multiple images]

Direct Script Usage

You can also use the Python scripts directly:

python scripts/generate_3d_model.py \
  --image path/to/image.jpg \
  --geometry-file-format glb \
  --quality medium \
  --output ./output

python scripts/generate_3d_model.py \
  --prompt "A detailed 3D model of a medieval castle" \
  --geometry-file-format glb \
  --quality high \
  --output ./output

Configuration

Generation Tiers

Tier	Description	Use Case	Speed
Gen-2	Highest quality, most advanced	Final production models	Slow
Detail	High detail, high resolution	Models requiring fine details	Medium
Smooth	Clear edges, smooth surface	Simple geometries, stylized models	Medium
Regular	Balanced quality and speed	General purpose	Medium
Sketch	Quick generation, low resolution	Concept validation, quick iteration	Fast

Output Formats

• GLB: Recommended for web and most 3D software
• USDZ: For Apple platforms
• FBX: For game engines and 3D modeling software
• OBJ: Universal 3D format
• STL: For 3D printing

Quality Levels

• High: Best quality, longer processing time
• Medium: Balanced quality and speed
• Low: Faster processing, lower quality
• Extra-low: Fastest processing, minimal quality

Best Practices

Image Input

• Use high-resolution images (at least 512 x 512 pixels)
• Ensure good lighting and clear details
• Avoid cluttered backgrounds
• Use multiple angles for better results
• Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, WEBP
• File size limit: 16MB
• Resolution range: 512x512 to 4096x4096

Text Prompts

• Be specific and detailed in your descriptions
• Mention materials and textures
• Include lighting information
• Specify the style (realistic, cartoon, futuristic, etc.)
• Provide context for the object

Important Notes

Download links expire in 10 minutes: API result URLs are temporary. Download 3D models immediately after generation completes. Do not store or cache the URLs themselves.

API Endpoints

Endpoint	Purpose
https://api.hyper3d.com/api/v2/rodin	Submit 3D model generation task
https://api.hyper3d.com/api/v2/status	Check task status
https://api.hyper3d.com/api/v2/download	Get download links for completed tasks

Example Prompts

Here are some example text prompts for 3D generation:

1. "A detailed 3D model of a medieval castle"
2. "A futuristic cityscape with flying cars"
3. "A realistic 3D model of a cat sitting on a couch"
4. "An abstract sculpture made of glass and metal"
5. "A 3D model of a cozy cottage in the woods"

Troubleshooting

API Key Issues

If you encounter authentication errors:

1. Verify your API key is set correctly
2. Check that the key is valid and active
3. Ensure you have sufficient API credits

Generation Failures

If generation fails:

1. Check image format and size requirements
2. Verify prompt is not empty or too short
3. Ensure API service is available
4. Review error messages for specific issues
