Hermes Tripo
Tripo 3D tools on Tripo's v3 API (openapi.tripo3d.ai). Text, photo or multiview to 3D, image edits, retexturing, splitting into parts, Smart UV, auto-rigging, preset animations, retopology, format conversion (FBX, USDZ, STL, 3MF, OBJ, GLTF) and downloads, with an inline 3D viewer in Hermes Desktop that shows whether a model is really rigged, a library pane that shows where each model came from (the steps behind it, its prompt, a jump back to the chat that made it, and one-click next steps), a local model inspector, and a status-bar chip with the Tripo balance and this chat's spend. Every credit-spending call goes through Hermes's approval prompt with its estimated cost, and a per-chat limit (a setting under Settings → Plugins, default 100 credits) makes it ask again past it. Needs TRIPO_API_KEY. Unofficial; not affiliated with Tripo or VAST.
Good to know before installing
Sends prompts and the local images or 3D model files you or the agent name (up to 50 MB; every local-file upload, free calls included, goes through Hermes's approval prompt) to Tripo's API at openapi.tripo3d.ai with TRIPO_API_KEY; saves downloaded models to $HERMES_HOME/tripo/ or a folder the agent picks (never overwriting: a clash gets a " (2)" suffix), and the Desktop viewer's save button copies models into your Downloads/Tripo folder (or the folder set in its settings); keeps a local task history in $HERMES_HOME/tripo/history.json (chat id, tool, prompt, parent task, estimated cost, saved file paths; at most 2,000 tasks, never sent anywhere); the Desktop library opens local .glb/.fbx/.obj/.stl files only from inside your home folder, $HERMES_HOME/tripo/ or the viewer's download folder, and uploads nothing; the status-bar chip reads your Tripo balance every two minutes and after each Tripo tool call; no shell commands, background processes or telemetry.

How to install
- Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs (this one needs
TRIPO_API_KEY), then asks whether to turn it on.hermes plugins install hermes-tripo - Said no? Turn it on later:
hermes plugins enable hermes-tripo - Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.
Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
