gaussian_splatting_scene_description

gaussian_splatting_scene_description is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from AndyZhuang/Opentest. It costs 72 tokens per session (3,472 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool that converts 3D Gaussian Splatting reconstructions of laboratory scenes into structured text descriptions. Gaussian Splatting is a way to represent a 3D scene from photos or video, including object positions and spatial relationships.

In plain words
What is it for?
Describing laboratory benches, instruments, samples, and relations such as left, right, behind, or in front for spatial reasoning, protocol guidance, error detection, or augmented-reality overlays.
Why use it?
It gives other software a text-based description of where instruments and samples are located, so they can use the lab layout when reasoning or giving guidance.

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

gaussian_splatting_scene_description 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 8d 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.

Gaussian Splatting Scene Description

Overview

gaussian_splatting_scene_description bridges 3D lab reconstruction and natural language understanding. Given a small set of lab photos or short video clips, it builds a 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) scene representation and then generates a structured natural language description of the spatial layout — instrument positions, sample locations, bench topology, and relational predicates (e.g., "pipette is left of tube rack", "centrifuge is behind the operator"). The output is designed for downstream consumption by VLMs, spatial reasoning models, or LabOS skills (protocol_video_matching, detect_common_wetlab_errors, realtime_protocol_guidance_prompts) that need a persistent, queryable representation of the lab environment for context-aware guidance, error detection, or AR overlay anchoring.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when any of the following conditions are present:

  • Spatial context for protocol guidance: A protocol step references "the tube on your left" or "the centrifuge behind you"; the agent needs a 3D-aware scene description to resolve spatial references and generate accurate realtime_protocol_guidance_prompts.
  • Lab layout documentation: A new lab setup or bench configuration must be documented in natural language for onboarding, SOP writing, or remote collaboration — "The pipette is on the right side of the bench; the tube rack is centered; the centrifuge is 2 m behind."
  • VLM / spatial model pre-training or fine-tuning: A VLM or spatial intelligence model requires structured scene descriptions as training data; the skill produces consistent, schema-aligned text from real lab imagery.
  • AR overlay anchoring: AR overlays (e.g., step indicators, deviation highlights) need to be anchored to 3D positions; the scene description provides object labels and approximate coordinates for overlay placement.
  • Multi-session consistency: The same lab is imaged at different times; 3DGS + description enables comparison ("centrifuge was moved from left to right since last scan").
  • Error detection context: detect_common_wetlab_errors or protocol_video_matching benefits from knowing the canonical layout — e.g., "tube A1 is in position (x, y) of the rack" — to disambiguate observations.
  • Robotic or automation planning: A lab robot (Opentrons, Hamilton) or future automation system needs a natural language map of the workspace for path planning or object localization.
  • Virtual lab tours or training: Generate descriptive text for a 3D lab model used in VR training, virtual tours, or remote supervision.
