Render a project's current model server-side and return it as an inline image so you can SEE what you built. Prefer open_in_studio for the happy path — it already includes an iso PNG preview in the same publish result when previewDelivered is true. Use this tool for a different `view`, a contact sheet (`view:"all"`), or when you only have a slug and are not publishing. Call with that `slug` to inspect whether the build looks right. CRITICAL — the image is rendered from the MODEL on the server; it does NOT reflect the user's Studio camera, zoom, or screen. NEVER ask the user to rotate, zoom, pan, move the camera, close a slider, or change their view to help you see — you cannot affect their screen and it cannot affect this render. To see a different angle, call this tool again with a different `view`. By DEFAULT (omit `view`, or `view:"all"`) it returns a CONTACT SHEET of all six canonical views in one labeled image — a 3×2 grid, top row [iso, front, right], bottom row [back, left, top] — so you can judge the model from every side regardless of its orientation (e.g. to find which side has the doors). Pass a single `view` (iso/front/back/left/right/top) for one large render of that angle. DETERMINISTIC: the same model + view always returns the same bytes — identical bytes are NOT a stale/lagging snapshot. If you changed the model, push it with open_in_studio FIRST, then re-render to see the change. The image is always current and never a blank capture. Colors and shading match Studio (same palette / base-material color). The slug is the capability: no OAuth for public/unlisted; private projects require the owner signed in. The PNG is base64-inlined as a real image block by default; pass `paths_only: true` for metadata only. No renderable geometry or a mesh failure → { ok: false, error, hint }, never a blank image.
