3D Texel MCP server

Give Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, Windsurf, Cline or any MCP client access to 3D Texel:

  • Search and download 7,000+ assets: 1,600+ free CC0 handmade PBR materials, HDRIs, decals, 3D models, IES profiles, atlases and landscapes, plus 5,600+ AI assets (materials, HDRI skyboxes, decals, heightmaps, 4,000+ UE5/Mixamo animations, 3D models, alpha brushes).
  • Generate seamless PBR materials (albedo, normal, roughness, height; 2K/4K/native 4K), true-HDR 360° HDRIs/skyboxes (2K/4K/8K) and AI textures with your 3D Texel credits.
  • Safe by design: every paid action needs the price you accepted, each key has a daily credit cap, failed generations are refunded automatically, and the server can never pay: buying credits is a link you open yourself.

Remote server (recommended)

https://3dtexel.com/wp-json/3dtexel-api/v1/mcp (Streamable HTTP). Without a key: search, asset details and prices. With a key (header Authorization: Bearer tx_live_…, create it at https://3dtexel.com/api-keys/): downloads, generations, balance.

Local (stdio) bridge

{ "mcpServers": { "3dtexel": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@3dtexel/mcp"] } } }

Connect your account once, without copying keys:

npx -y @3dtexel/mcp login     # shows a code, you approve on 3dtexel.com
npx -y @3dtexel/mcp status
npx -y @3dtexel/mcp logout    # revokes the key

Or set TEXEL_API_KEY in the env block. The key is stored in your user config folder (%APPDATA%\3dtexel or ~/.config/3dtexel), never printed.
