abaqus-odb

abaqus-odb is a skill for Claude Code from Cai-aa/CAE-Agent-Hub. It costs 35 tokens per session (878 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for reading Abaqus ODB files, which store the results of an Abaqus engineering simulation. It extracts values such as stress, displacement, reaction force, strain, temperature, and eigenfrequency, the natural vibration rate of a structure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find maximum stress, total displacement, reaction forces, strains, temperatures, or vibration frequencies, and to export results to CSV files.
Why use it?
It avoids manually searching through simulation result files when a specific value, location, time step, or export is needed.

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-odb 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.

Abaqus ODB Skill

This skill reads and extracts analysis results from Abaqus ODB files.

When to Use This Skill

Route here when user mentions:

  • "What is the maximum stress?", "extract displacement"
  • "Get reaction forces", "post-process the ODB"
  • "Export results to CSV", "what are the eigenfrequencies?"

Route elsewhere:

  • Running the analysis → /abaqus-job
  • Configuring what output to save → /abaqus-output
  • Exporting geometry (STL, STEP) → /abaqus-export

Key Decisions

1. What Result is Needed?

Need Field Notes
Displacement U Use .magnitude for total
Stress S Use .mises for von Mises
Reaction force RF Sum components for total
Strain E Similar structure to stress
Temperature NT Thermal analysis results
Eigenfrequency Frame description Parse from frame metadata

2. Which Step/Frame?

Scenario Frame Selection
Final results step.frames[-1]
All time history Loop all frames
Specific time Find by frameValue
Modal analysis Each frame = mode

3. Location: Global Max or Specific?

Need Approach
Overall maximum Loop all values, find max
Specific node Filter by nodeLabel
Subset/region Use getSubset(region=...)

4. Export Format?

Format Use Case
Print to console Quick check
CSV file Spreadsheet analysis
Text report Documentation

What to Ask User

If unclear, ask:

  1. What result? Stress, displacement, reaction force, frequency?
  2. Which step/frame? Final, specific time, or all?
  3. Location? Maximum anywhere, or specific node/region?
  4. Output format? Print, CSV, or report?

Workflow

  1. Open ODB - Use readOnly=True for extraction
  2. Navigate to step/frame - List steps with odb.steps.keys()
  3. Get field output - Access via frame.fieldOutputs['U']
  4. Extract values - Loop field.values, use .magnitude, .mises
  5. Close ODB - Always close when done

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-odb is a skill published in the GitHub repository Cai-aa/CAE-Agent-Hub (881 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 878 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.
