reference-analysis-validator

reference-analysis-validator is a skill for Claude Code from CheshireJCat/blender. It costs 94 tokens per session (708 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of reference-analysis-validator, MIT.

A checking process for comparing reconstructed visual assets with their reference images, wireframes, texture sheets, and Blender renders. It turns visual matching into measured tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Preparing source manifests, analyzing image parts, comparing masks and overlays, and blocking exports that fail defined matching thresholds.
Why use it?
It helps catch incorrect shapes, sizes, positions, and part counts before you export the result.

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

reference-analysis-validator 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/reference_manifest_compiler.py, scripts/render_overlay_validator.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Reference Analysis Validator

This skill converts “looks close” into measurable gates. For brand/logo/mascot work, do not model or export until a source manifest and validation thresholds exist.

Required outputs

Create these in the asset output folder:

  • reference_manifest.json — classified source files, expected parts, thresholds.
  • source_analysis/*.json — image metadata, masks/components/landmarks.
  • validation/front_overlay_reference.png — reference and render overlay.
  • validation/front_mask_validation.json — IoU/SSIM/bbox/centroid report.

Workflow

  1. Classify sources: front, side, back, top, texture atlas, decals, maps, lightmap, aura/context.
  2. Build/refresh reference_manifest.json with hard expected counts and view roles.
  3. Extract masks/components from each source using scripts/reference_manifest_compiler.py or existing analyzers.
  4. Render model from matching orthographic camera with reference planes hidden.
  5. Compare reference mask vs render mask using scripts/render_overlay_validator.py.
  6. Refuse final export if hard gates fail.

Modality rule

Compare like with like. A wireframe edge mask compared against a shaded beauty render gives misleadingly low IoU. For hard gates, render a flat silhouette/matte pass from Blender or compare reference edges to render edges. Use render_overlay_validator.py --reference-mode ... --render-mode ... when the source and render need different mask extraction modes.

Default validation gates

  • primary structural part count: exact.
  • front silhouette IoU: target >= 0.90 for rigid/logotype shapes; >= 0.82 acceptable for first mascot reconstruction pass.
  • bbox center drift: <= 12 px at 1024 px validation size.
  • bbox size drift: <= 3% of image dimension.
  • face/eye/smile landmark drift: <= 2% of image dimension when landmarks are defined.

Failure policy

If a repeated mismatch occurs, record the measured failure, then route to the missing specialty skill:

  • wrong silhouette → contour-to-mesh
  • wrong depth/side/back → orthographic-registration
  • wrong textures → atlas-uv-fitting
  • wrong whole workflow → mascot-logo-reconstruction

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.
