Scan To Model — AI skill for Claude Code

Scan to Model

A Codex plugin for turning scan evidence into reviewable Blender architectural models.

Start with photographs, calibrated depth, camera poses, plans, and observations. Preserve the evidence, measure real surfaces, align captures, and build a model whose geometry can be traced back to its sources. The plugin provides seven skills and local Python tools. It does not automatically reconstruct an entire building from a ZIP.

Install in Codex

Add this repository as a marketplace and install its plugin:

codex plugin marketplace add obra/scan-to-model
codex plugin add scan-to-model@scan-to-model

Start a new Codex task so it can load the installed skills, then ask:

Use scan-to-model to inventory these scans, build a coverage atlas, and model the next evidence-supported room, including its ceiling and connections.

The workflow runs locally. It needs no server or API key. Supply your own project directory and scans; keep private evidence in that project.

What it does

Skill	Result
scan-to-model	An evidence hierarchy, a coverage atlas, and a bounded modeling plan.
scan-ingest	Preserved source archives, pairing and variant audits, frame indices, and contact sheets.
source-observe	Annotate visible construction in original photographs, retaining uncertain identity and endpoints independently of model placement.
street-view-reference	Verified exterior panorama references with imagery dates, viewpoint, attribution and explicit limits on dimensional use.
depth-inspect	Calibrated native point references and measurements tied to photographed physical surfaces.
scan-register	Unit-scale rigid alignment with withheld checks and explicit limits on where a transform is valid.
blender-reconstruct	Source-tagged model candidates, saved-scene inventories, comparison renders, and a review before promotion.

The guidance keeps current architecture, historical concealed constructi
