Layergen Mcp
Generate, retexture, and repair 3D assets from Claude Desktop or any MCP host without leaving the agent chat.
Overview
Layergen MCP is a MCP server for the Build phase that exposes Layergen 3D generation, retexture, and repair APIs to Claude Desktop and other MCP hosts.
What is this MCP server?
- stdio MCP package via npx @layergen/mcp (v0.3.0)
- Tools for 3D model generation, retexture, and mesh repair
- Works with Claude Desktop and transport-agnostic MCP hosts
- Optional LAYERGEN_API_URL override for preview or self-hosted API bases
- API keys created at app.layergen.ai under Settings → API
- Server schema version 0.3.0
- npm package @layergen/mcp with stdio transport
- Default API base https://layergen.ai (overridable via LAYERGEN_API_URL)
What problem does it solve?
Switching between chat-based development and separate 3D tools slows iteration when you only need quick meshes, textures, or fixes.
Who is it for?
Indie builders prototyping 3D visuals, game props, or product renders who already use MCP with Claude or Cursor.
Skip if: Teams needing in-editor Blender rigging, animation timelines, or offline-only 3D with no API budget.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After install, your agent can call Layergen jobs from the repo session and pull results back into your build workflow.
- Generated or retextured 3D model outputs from agent tool calls
- Repaired mesh artifacts returned through Layergen API responses

Journey fit
How it compares
MCP integration to a hosted 3D API, not a local mesh editor skill or generic image generator.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Layergen MCP for?
Solo builders and small teams who want agent-driven 3D generate/retexture/repair via Layergen without custom API glue.
When should I use Layergen MCP?
Use it during build when you need fast 3D assets, texture swaps, or mesh repairs referenced from your product or content stack.
How do I add Layergen MCP to my agent?
Create an lg_live_ API key at app.layergen.ai, set LAYERGEN_API_KEY, and add the stdio server (npx @layergen/mcp) in your MCP host config.
