WHAT IT DOES

What meshy_text_to_image does on Meshy MCP Server

AI agents invoke meshy_text_to_image to trigger actions in Meshy MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

THE RISK

High Risk

Why meshy_text_to_image needs a policy

This tool initiates an external AI model execution to produce a generated image. It is not a simple read/query, nor does it modify existing data in a reversible sense — it triggers a computational operation on an external service. The blast radius is medium since it consumes API credits/resources and produces artifacts, but does not delete data or move money.

From the tool's definition "Generate a 2D image from a text description using Meshy AI" — triggers an external AI generation operation

POLICY

How to control meshy_text_to_image

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Meshy MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for meshy_text_to_image:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "meshy_text_to_image": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "meshy_text_to_image_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

meshy_text_to_image stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Meshy MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
