Runchat utility components in Grasshopper
Companion components for the Runchat node. Most Runchat workflows return URLs (images, 3D models), so these utilities download those URLs into Rhino, and feed Rhino geometry back into a workflow as input.

Image Preview

Connect an image URL to download and preview the image in Grasshopper. Useful for previewing the output of text-to-image workflows.

Load GLB

Connect a glb or gltf URL to download and load the model into the Rhino viewport. Useful for previewing the output of image-to-3D workflows.

Upload Screenshot

Uploads a screenshot of the active Rhino viewport to Runchat and returns the URL. Use this to feed Rhino geometry into a workflow as image input, for example to generate renders from a massing model.

Camera Projection

Projects an image onto a mesh using the camera in the active Rhino viewport. Useful for applying generated textures or reference images onto existing geometry.

Preview Viewport

Displays an image in a new viewport with matching dimensions. Useful for comparing generated images against the active scene.
