Tools

21 tools agents can invoke

Checks whether the signed-in user's Flow Studio license allows the generation tools, and picks the license to bill. Use when: the user starts generating images or 3D models, a generation tool reported a license, credit or age-consent block, or the user says they upgraded or confirmed their age. Do not use when: the user asks about plans or remaining credits (use list_licenses_billing). Returns: allowed, outcome, message, generativeTools (per-tool access) and licenseId, the input to every credit-spending tool, valid for the rest of the chat. A blocked account is a normal result, not an error. Shows: the upgrade card for a blocked account: a message and a button to the plans page, or to Flow Studio to confirm age.
check_generation_access_billing
Creates a draft 3D model with up to four variants from an image, in a new Flow Studio mesh project. Use when: the user asks to make a 3D object from an image, including one attached in the same message, or from an image edited to add or change parts of an earlier 3D model. Do not use when: there is no image, only text (use create_3d_model_from_text_mesh). Effects: Saves an attached or linked image to the user's account and creates a new project in the user's Flow Studio library. Spends credits from the user's Flow Studio license.

Do not use when: the mesh is finished, not a draft (use remesh_finished_model_mesh or retexture_finished_model_mesh); or the user adds or changes parts (clothing, props): no tool changes the shape; that takes a new image and create_3d_model_from_image_mesh, both spending credits. Effects: Spends credits from the user's Flow Studio license. Creates a new generation. Returns: generationId, the input to get_generation_mesh and get_generation_next_step_options_mesh; projectId, state and the licenseId billed. Shows: the 3D viewer with progress and the finished model.
remesh_and_retexture_draft_mesh
Retextures a finished (non-draft) mesh from a text prompt or a reference image. Use when: the user wants a new texture on a finished mesh. Do not use when: the mesh is a draft (use remesh_and_retexture_draft_mesh); or the user adds or changes parts (clothing, props): no tool changes the shape; that takes a new image and create_3d_model_from_image_mesh, both spending credits. Effects: Spends credits from the user's Flow Studio license. Creates a new generation. Returns: generationId, the input to get_generation_mesh and get_generation_next_step_options_mesh; projectId, state and the licenseId billed. Shows: the 3D viewer with progress and the finished model.
retexture_finished_model_mesh
Finds images and 3D models the user made, by project name or type, to open one with show_generation_mesh. Shows nothing to the user. Use when: the user wants to open one image or 3D model they made, named by its project or described ("the last dog image"). Do not use when: the user wants to browse projects or generations, also by name (use list_projects_mesh with search), or a known generation's status (use get_generation_mesh). Returns: matching projects with their newest generations, newest first; generationId is the input to show_generation_mesh.
search_generations_mesh
Sets the user's saved default AI model for one mesh action, the same setting as the model dropdown in the Flow Studio web app. Use when: the user wants to change their default AI model for a mesh action. Do not use when: the user wants a different model for one generation only (the aiModel parameter of the create tool covers that). Effects: Replaces the saved default for that action, in chat and in the Flow Studio web app; later generations of that action use it. Spends no credits. Returns: the updated map of saved default models per generation type.
set_user_ai_model_preference_mesh
Opens one existing generation, an image or a 3D model, in a single-result viewer. Use when: the user wants to see one existing generation whose id is known. Do not use when: the user wants to find a generation (use search_generations_mesh), browse the library (use list_projects_mesh), only check progress (use get_generation_mesh) or just created it (the create tool's viewer shows it). Returns: generationId, kind, type, state and projectId. Shows: the image or the 3D model of that generation, with progress while it is running.
