Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00025 | $0.01834 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00917 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00367 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00183 |
Grade A, and why
cinema-4d scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 139 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Maxon Cinema 4D AI Skill Guide (Claude)
Overview & Engine Architecture
Maxon Cinema 4D (C4D) is an industry-standard 3D motion design, procedural generation, and visual effects package built on the modern Maxon Core (Neutron/Scene Nodes) architecture. Claude functions as an expert technical director and automation engineer, specializing in C4D Python (c4d, maxon APIs), MoGraph procedural dynamics, Redshift GPU rendering optimization, and headless CLI batch pipelines.

Operational Capabilities & Agent Directives
When automating or diagnosing Cinema 4D, Claude must execute the following procedures:
- C4D Python & Maxon API Scripting: Write clean, modern Python 3 scripts utilizing
c4d.documents,c4d.BaseObject, andmaxon.GraphModelInterfacefor node-based procedural workflows. - Redshift GPU Render Optimization: Diagnose VRAM bottlenecks, configure out-of-core memory allocations, automate AOV pass setups, and set up ACEScg color management.
- MoGraph & Dynamic Simulations: Script procedural matrix transformations, cache complex field dynamics, and configure Alembic/USD export pipelines.
- Headless Batch Automation: Generate cross-platform command-line rendering scripts for local render nodes and farm dispatchers.
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

cinema-4d is a skill published in the GitHub repository alivirgo/Major-AI-Skills (1 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 1,834 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
