abaqus-job

abaqus-job is a skill for Claude Code from Cai-aa/CAE-Agent-Hub. It costs 33 tokens per session (837 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for creating, submitting, and monitoring Abaqus analysis jobs. Abaqus is engineering simulation software that calculates how a model behaves under specified materials, loads, constraints, and analysis steps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to save a model, create a job, run an analysis interactively or in the background, generate an INP file, run from the command line, and check job status.
Why use it?
It turns a completed Abaqus model into a runnable analysis and helps track whether the job finishes or aborts. It can also create an input file without running the analysis.

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

abaqus-job 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 11d 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.

Abaqus Job Skill

This skill creates, submits, and monitors Abaqus analysis jobs. Use it when the model is ready to run.

When to Use This Skill

Route here when user says:

  • "Run the analysis", "Submit the job", "Execute the model"
  • "Generate input file", "Create INP file"
  • "Run in parallel", "Check job status"

Route elsewhere:

  • Reading results after completion → /abaqus-odb
  • Setting up the model → use other module skills

Prerequisites

Before job submission:

  1. Model is complete (geometry, material, mesh, BCs, loads, step)
  2. Model saved to .cae file
  3. No validation errors

Workflow: Running an Analysis

Step 1: Save the Model

Always save before creating a job. The .cae file must exist.

Step 2: Create the Job

Specify job name and model name. They can differ.

Step 3: Choose Submission Mode

User Wants Action
Run analysis and wait Submit with waitForCompletion
Generate INP only (no run) writeInput
Run in background Submit without waiting
Run from command line abaqus job=Name interactive

Step 4: Wait and Monitor

For interactive submission, monitor status until COMPLETED or ABORTED.

Step 5: Check Results

If COMPLETED, results are in .odb file. If ABORTED, check .msg file.

Key Decisions

Submit vs Write Input?

Goal Method
Run analysis now submit()
Only create INP file writeInput()
Run later from CLI writeInput, then abaqus job=Name

Parallel Processing

Scenario Setting
Small model / Learning Edition numCpus=1
Large model, multi-core numCpus=N, numDomains=N
Single machine mp_mode=THREADS
Cluster mp_mode=MPI

What to Ask User

If unclear, ask:

  • "Ready to run the analysis?"
  • "How many CPUs for parallel?"
  • "Just need the input file, or run the analysis?"

Output Files

Extension Content
.odb Results database (use /abaqus-odb to read)
.dat Printed output (nodal values, summaries)
.msg Solver messages - check this if job fails
.sta Status file (increment progress)
.inp Input file (model definition)
.lck Lock file (exists while job runs)

3 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.

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.

abaqus-job is a skill published in the GitHub repository Cai-aa/CAE-Agent-Hub (877 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 33 tokens to every session and 837 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-30.
