Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00051 | $0.00484 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00194 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00097 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00048 |
Grade A, and why
houdini-scripting 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.
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
houdini-scripting
Escape hatch for arbitrary Python in Houdini. Skills-first: call typed tools from other skills before execute_python.
When to use
- Confirm Houdini version, hip path, and UI availability →
get_session_info - One-off automation with no typed tool yet →
execute_python
Safety
- All tools run on the main thread (
affinity: main). execute_pythoncan mutate the scene; treat as destructive.
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.
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.

houdini-scripting is a skill published in the GitHub repository dcc-mcp/dcc-mcp-houdini (18 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 484 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
