maya-primitives

maya-primitives is a skill for Claude Code from dcc-mcp/dcc-mcp-maya. It costs 81 tokens per session (480 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Maya toolset for quickly creating common polygon shapes and changing their transforms. Transforms are an object’s position, rotation, and scale in a 3D scene.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create spheres, cubes, cylinders, and planes; read or change transforms; rename objects; and delete objects.
Why use it?
It offers a narrow, input-checked way to create predictable objects without using unrestricted scripting for routine tasks. Results include structured object names.

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-primitives 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 8 executable files (scripts/create_cube.py, scripts/create_cylinder.py, scripts/create_plane.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-primitives (Authoring stage)

Schema-validated quick path for creating polygon primitives and reading / writing transforms. The eight scripts here are intentionally narrow: they exist so an agent can do "create N spheres / cubes / cylinders" without falling back to execute_python and losing input validation, ToolAnnotations, and the structured envelope.

When to use this skill (vs alternatives)

Goal Use
Place 10 spheres at scripted positions maya-primitives (schema-validated)
Bevel an existing mesh maya-mesh-ops
Build a procedural lattice from scratch maya-scripting + execute_python
Set a custom user attribute maya-attributes

Scripts

  • create_sphere — Create a polygon sphere
  • create_cube — Create a polygon cube
  • create_cylinder — Create a polygon cylinder
  • create_plane — Create a polygon plane
  • set_transform — Set translate/rotate/scale on an object
  • get_transform — Get translate/rotate/scale of an object
  • rename_object — Rename an object in the scene
  • delete_objects — Delete objects from the Maya scene

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.

maya-primitives is a skill published in the GitHub repository dcc-mcp/dcc-mcp-maya (64 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 81 tokens to every session and 480 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
