maya-light-rig

maya-light-rig is a skill for Claude Code from dcc-mcp/dcc-mcp-maya. It costs 71 tokens per session (374 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of Maya lighting tools with ready-made three-point rigs, HDRI domes, and individual lights. An HDRI is a 360-degree image used to light and surround a 3D scene.

In plain words
What is it for?
Create lights, three-point rigs, and HDRI dome lighting; list light rigs; and adjust the intensity of all lights in a named rig.
Why use it?
It avoids manually building light nodes when setting up scene illumination, while keeping lights grouped for control.

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

maya-light-rig 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/create_hdri_dome.py, scripts/create_light.py, scripts/create_three_point_rig.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

maya-light-rig (Authoring stage)

Standard lighting rigs (three-point, HDRI dome) and rig-level intensity controls. Designed for fast scene illumination without manually wiring light nodes. create_light always returns both the transform and shape to avoid Maya 2022 command return-value traps such as cmds.directionalLight() returning a shape node.

Scripts

  • create_light — Create one typed light and return transform + shape
  • create_three_point_rig — Create a standard key/fill/rim three-point light rig
  • create_hdri_dome — Create a skydome/environment light from an HDR image
  • list_light_rigs — List all lights grouped under rig transform nodes
  • set_light_rig_intensity — Scale intensity of all lights within a named rig
Files

What ships with it

7 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.
