ManifoldGen's production tools are hosted versions of the jobs people normally do by hand in Blender, Illustrator and After Effects. Each job runs on ManifoldGen servers and returns finished media plus an editable project file, billed per job from prepaid credits. You are charged only when a job completes.

Tools

| MCP tool | REST service | Output | Price | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | blender_destruction | destruction-studio | MP4, poster, baked .blend | $0.40 (+$0.06 photo to 3D, +$0.20 high) | | blender_exploded_view | exploded-view | MP4, poster, .blend | $0.40 | | blender_toon_shader | toon-shader | MP4 turntable, .blend with editable materials | $0.30 | | blender_render_scene | blender-scene | MP4, poster, .blend from a JSON scene spec | $0.30 | | image_to_3d | image-to-3d | textured GLB | $0.06 ($0.45 high) | | vectorize_image | vectorize | SVG with one layer per color | $0.02 ($0.03 AI tracer) | | remove_video_objects | shot-cleanup | cleaned MP4 with the original audio | $0.24 per second, up to 30 s |

Color grading (.cube LUT export) and shader effects run in the browser at /tools/color-grade and /tools/shader-fx at no per-job charge.

Connect

claude mcp add --transport http manifoldgen https://manifoldgen.com/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer $MANIFOLDGEN_API_KEY"

The server also lists guided workflows through prompts/list: production-bundle, destruction-studio, exploded-view, scene-builder, toon-shader, shot-cleanup, shot-composer, vectorize, image-fixer, color-grade and shader-fx.

Typical agent flow

  1. Call list_services to see current prices and parameters.
  2. For local files, call create_upload, then PUT the file to the returned upload_url.
  3. Call the tool. For example, blender_destruction with {"subject":"tower","material":"brick","impact":"ball","quality":"draft","wait_seconds":300}.
  4. If the job is still running, call wait_for_job. The finished job returns video_url, poster_url and blend_url.

REST works the same way:

curl -X POST https://manifoldgen.com/api/service \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MANIFOLDGEN_API_KEY" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"service":"destruction-studio","params":{"subject":"tower","material":"brick","impact":"ball"}}'

Then poll /api/video-jobs/{job_id}.

Remote Blender scene spec

blender-scene takes declarative data, not Python, so a scene can be described safely. A spec lists objects (cube, sphere, cylinder, cone, torus, plane, text, or model by model_index into model_urls), each with a location, rotation, scale, material and keyframes. It also sets lights, the camera (location, look_at, lens, keyframes), the world (color, strength or a studio/sky/night/sunset preset) and the frame count. Limits are 64 objects and 64 keyframes per object. The .blend that comes back opens in desktop Blender for further editing.
