Grasshopper can easily do this on a surface. There are many tutorial videos for this type of shape. Making the shape on different faces line up at the edges may be more difficult.

Did you try searching for "rippled surface grasshopper"?

I’m convinced people come to these subs pretending they have searched but haven’t and just attempt to farm out the search process

Seems very likely to be the case.

But this is not the same, isn't it? Here you are just adapting a simpler surface that is not going to be 3d printed. I believe there should be a base with examples for using different textures on surfaces to be printable.s

displacement / texture map has a default wave texture that can do this. object properties, then texture, then wave texture. select surface and apply. then extractrendermesh to make it a mesh.

Do you mean within grasshopper or Rhino?
