Install

How do I install the AXIS Avatar Foundry MCP server?

AXIS Avatar Foundry is a hosted endpoint at https://api.avatar.jonathanarvay.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 14 exposed · ~2,124 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

generate_avatar_from_image ~350

PAID (x402, 6 USDC): generate a production 3D avatar from a reference photo (base64) — xAI A-pose normalize → TRELLIS.2 GPU mesh → full canonical post-process. Payment settles ONLY when generation completes; a failed generation is never charged. Returns a job_id — poll with the free get_generation_status tool (typical runtime 5-15 minutes). Pass idempotency_key when a retry is possible (timeout/5xx) — replaying the same key returns the original job_id instead of a second GPU job/charge. [Paid: $6.00 USDC via x402 for unauthenticated calls on the hosted /mcp endpoint; DEFERRED settlement — charged only when the generation job completes, a failed job is never charged. Poll get_generation_status (free).]

NameTypeReqDescription

PAID (x402, 5 USDC): generate a production 3D avatar from a text prompt — xAI concept image → TRELLIS.2 GPU mesh → full canonical post-process (repair/validate/export). Payment settles ONLY when generation completes; a failed generation is never charged. Returns a job_id — poll with the free get_generation_status tool (typical runtime 5-15 minutes). Pass idempotency_key when a retry is possible (timeout/5xx) — replaying the same key returns the original job_id instead of a second GPU job/charge. [Paid: $5.00 USDC via x402 for unauthenticated calls on the hosted /mcp endpoint; DEFERRED settlement — charged only when the generation job completes, a failed job is never charged. Poll get_generation_status (free).]

{"platform":"unity","prompt":"a friendly adventurer character, fantasy game hero"}
get_generation_status ~153

FREE: poll a generation job submitted by the paid generate tools. Returns status/progress; once complete AND the deferred payment has settled, returns the download URLs. A failed generation reports charged=false. Look up by job_id, or by idempotency_key + payer if the job_id was lost. [Free — no payment required.]

NameTypeReqDescription
idempotency_keystring–Alternate lookup key: the idempotency_key passed to the original generate call. Requires payer.
job_idstring–Job id returned by a generate tool
payerstring–x402 payer address the original generate call used — required when looking up by idempotency_key (scopes the key to its owner).

No output schema declared.

{"job_id":"cd464f2f473a4b6e"}
post_process_mesh ~365

Post-process a RAW generated mesh (normalize → mesh-repair → rig/skin → validate → export) and return the finished, validated GLB as base64. The inline counterpart of axis_process (which needs a server file path) — the generation post-process step, callable by an LLM/agent that holds the mesh bytes (e.g. fresh TRELLIS output) or a URL to them. Provide the mesh EXACTLY one of two ways: inline as base64 (glb_base64) or as an HTTPS URL (mesh_url) — the URL's host must be on this server's operator-configured allowlist (off by default; an unconfigured allowlist refuses every mesh_url call, it is never open to an arbitrary host). Providing both or neither is a real input error. [Paid: $1.50 USDC via x402 for unauthenticated calls on the hosted /mcp endpoint; settled only on a successful (non-error) result.]

NameTypeReqDescription
asset_kindstring–Asset kind (skinning auto-on for avatar only)
glb_base64string–Base64-encoded raw binary GLB to post-process. Provide exactly one of glb_base64 or mesh_url.
mesh_urlstring–HTTPS URL to fetch the raw GLB from instead of inline base64 (e.g. a presigned storage URL) — the host must be on this server's configured allowlist (off by default). Provide exactly one of glb_base6…
platformstring–Target engine platform (adds export validation)
polygon_tierstring–Decimation tier for the output mesh
run_skinningboolean–Override skinning (default: avatars only)

NameTypeReqDescription

Common questions

What is the AXIS Avatar Foundry MCP server?

AXIS Avatar Foundry is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.jonathanarvay/axis-avatar-foundry. 3D avatar/asset foundry: text/image -> rigged, validated, engine-ready GLB via x402. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://api.avatar.jonathanarvay.com/mcp).

Is the AXIS Avatar Foundry MCP server safe to use?

AXIS Avatar Foundry scores 88 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the AXIS Avatar Foundry MCP server expose?

AXIS Avatar Foundry exposes 14 tools: axis_list_capabilities, axis_validate, axis_inspect, axis_compare, axis_process, and 9 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,124 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the AXIS Avatar Foundry MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to AXIS Avatar Foundry without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the AXIS Avatar Foundry MCP server still maintained?

AXIS Avatar Foundry is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 28 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
