What This Skill Does

The Sideload Avatar Generator is a powerful OpenClaw agent skill designed to bridge the gap between creative text prompts and high-fidelity 3D assets. Utilizing the Sideload.gg platform, this skill enables users to generate custom 3D avatars in GLB, VRM, and MML formats directly from the command line or agent interface. The service operates on a pay-per-use model via the x402 protocol on the Base network, ensuring a secure, decentralized transaction process where you retain full control over your wallet keys. Whether you are building for the web via Three.js, setting up a VTubing character for VRChat, or deploying an avatar to an MML-compatible virtual world, this skill automates the complex modeling pipeline into a single, seamless generation step.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, use the OpenClaw hub CLI: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/directivecreator/sideload-avatar-generator. Ensure you have Node.js 18+ installed on your machine. Once installed, ensure you have an x402-compatible wallet capable of signing transactions on the Base network to cover the $2 USDC fee per generation. The tool allows you to probe costs before executing a full payment, making it safe for experimentation.

Use Cases

This skill is indispensable for developers and creators in the virtual world space. Use it to rapidly prototype NPC characters for games built with Three.js, create unique personal avatars for social metaverse platforms, or generate standardized VRM models for motion-capture and VTubing software. It acts as an "avatar-as-a-service" plugin that can be integrated into larger autonomous agent workflows for roleplay or immersive storytelling.

Example Prompts

1. "Generate a 3D avatar of a futuristic space pilot wearing silver chrome armor and a holographic visor."
2. "Create a stylized anime-style girl avatar based on this reference image: [https://example.com/character-sketch.png]"
3. "Produce a cyberpunk street samurai in VRM format with glowing neon accents for use in VRChat."

Tips & Limitations

To get the best results, use descriptive prompts that define style, clothing, and aesthetic traits. For the most accurate likeness, supply a clean, high-resolution reference image. Remember that this tool handles file outputs; you must manage your own local storage or cloud bucket if you intend to host these assets permanently. Always verify your x402 payment token balance on Base before initiating large batch generations to avoid interrupted service.
