zbrush

zbrush is a skill for Claude Code from alivirgo/Major-AI-Skills. It costs 46 tokens per session (1,672 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A ZBrush support skill for digital sculpting, mesh processing, and pipeline automation. ZBrush is software for sculpting detailed 3D models.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for ZScript macros, multi-resolution sculpting, ZRemesher retopology, Decimation Master, displacement or normal maps, and GoZ transfers.
Why use it?
It helps turn high-detail sculpts into usable assets by automating topology, mesh optimisation, maps, and transfers between applications.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

zbrush 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 13d ago.

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.

Maxon ZBrush AI Skill Guide (Claude)

Overview & Engine Architecture

Maxon ZBrush is a high-density sculpting DCC (often tens of millions of polygons). Agents should treat tools as SubTool hierarchies + SDiv levels, Dynamesh/Sculptris as topology regenerators, ZRemesher as a quad-flow contract, and Multi Map Exporter as a 32-bit displacement pipeline—not 8-bit previews. Automation is primarily ZScript (.txt / compiled .zsc), plus GoZ bridges to Maya/C4D/Blender.

Version pins: document ZBrush year/build and plugin paths (ZStartup/ZPlugs64). UI path strings in ZScript break across versions—prefer documented plugin menu paths the studio actually ships.


When to use / when not to

Use when

  • Organic/hard-surface sculpt, retopo via ZRemesher, decimation for game proxies.
  • Extracting displacement/normal maps for downstream renderers.
  • Batch SubTool export / GoZ handoff macros.

Do not use when

  • Primary need is procedural FX sims → @houdini.
  • Final PBR layer painting → @substance-painter after UVs.
  • Full scene lighting/ MoGraph → @cinema-4d / @blender.

Changes

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.
