A toolset for inspecting and checking OpenUSD files, a format used to store 3D scenes and their components.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to print layer and scene contents, traverse scene objects, and run USD compliance checks on .usd, .usda, .usdc, or .usdz files.
Why use it?
It helps you understand what a USD file contains and find compliance problems before another 3D application reads it.

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

usd-tools 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 27d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/inspect.py, scripts/validate.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.

What it actually says

OpenUSD Tools

Inspect and validate Universal Scene Description (USD) files.

Tools

usd_tools__inspect

Print the contents of a .usd, .usda, .usdc, or .usdz file.

usd_tools__validate

Run usdchecker compliance validation and return the report.

Prerequisites

Install the OpenUSD Python bindings:

pip install usd-core

Or install the full distribution from https://openusd.org.

Files

What ships with it

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.
