Suzanne API

REST API for turning a text prompt or 1-4 photos into a textured 3D mesh. Jobs are submitted to POST /v1/generations/text-to-3d or /v1/generations/photo-to-3d against the sculptor, atelier or capture models, images are staged through presigned uploads (POST /v1/uploads), jobs are polled at GET /v1/jobs/{job_id}, can be cancelled, and finished meshes are downloaded as GLB, OBJ, STL or FBX via a 302 to a presigned URL. Bearer API keys (sznn_test_ / sznn_live_), an Idempotency-Key header on generation POSTs, and a JSON error envelope.

    reason: generate-contract-from-docs.py kept 0 operations from the six endpoint pages and its collapse step merged the
      sibling literal paths /v1/generations/text-to-3d + /v1/generations/photo-to-3d into /v1/generations/{generationid} and
      /v1/uploads into /v1/{v1id}; those paths exist on no page. The operations below were re-derived one per endpoint page,
      each METHOD + path gated verbatim against that page; schemas carry only the fields the page example responses show.
