1. Add the plugin
Open the ChatGPT plugin page and add Topview 3D Builder.
Open in ChatGPTUse it in GPT, Claude, and other agents. Ask for a scene or pass a reference. The agent builds an editable 3D stage for $0.10, then sets the camera and generates.

User cases
Watch an agent turn a prompt or a reference into a stage, then set the camera before the shot is generated.
In the agent
Stay in the chat. Hand the agent a reference image, and the 3D Builder plugin builds an editable stage instead of leaving you in an empty viewport.
One message · one generated stage
Same chat
In GPT, Claude, or another agent, describe a push, pan, or orbit. The plugin adds that camera move on the scene you already built.
One follow-up · one camera move
Follow-up prompts
Ask for a wide shot, then a closer one. The plugin keeps the same stage, so the agent does not rebuild the world in every message.
Same stage · several asks
Still editable
The scene stays editable after the agent builds it. Ask it to move objects and change how they sit before you generate.
Locked layout · fewer wasted generations
GPT, Claude, and more
The plugin runs inside GPT, Claude, and other agents. You ask for the blocking there. Building one scene costs $0.10.
Ask GPT, Claude, or another agent for the scene. You do not open a separate 3D app to begin.
Have the agent set the camera position, angle, and move, then look at the frame before the shot is generated.
When the stage holds, ask the agent to generate. The shot starts from the scene you directed in chat.
Why the plugin
Use the 3D Builder plugin when GPT, Claude, or another agent should build the stage first. A plain video prompt skips that plan.
| Focus | 3D Builder Plugin | A plain video prompt |
|---|---|---|
| Where you work | Inside GPT, Claude, or another agent | One prompt, with no scene to come back to |
| What you control | Scene, objects, camera position, and camera animation | Whatever the video model infers from the sentence |
| Best for | A $0.10 scene the agent can keep editing | A single take with no stage to reuse |
| Typical ask | Build this scene, then move the camera | Make a video that looks like this |
Watch on YouTube
Watch a stage get built, a camera move get set, and a shot get generated. That is the 3D Builder the plugin calls from GPT, Claude, and other agents.
How to use it
Add the plugin, ask GPT, Claude, or another agent for the scene, then direct the camera in the same chat.
Install 3D Builder in Codex, or from the GitHub source, so your agent can call it.
In GPT, Claude, or another agent, describe the scene or pass a reference. The plugin builds an editable 3D stage. One scene costs $0.10.
Tell the agent to move objects and set a push, pan, orbit, or follow. Then ask it to generate from that stage.
Install the plugin, then ask GPT, Claude, or another agent to build the stage, set the camera, and generate.
