mtpy

mtpy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from SteadfastAsArt/geoscience-skills. It costs 119 tokens per session (1,609 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Python tool for analysing magnetotelluric data, which records natural electromagnetic signals to study electrical properties beneath the ground. It reads EDI files and works with measurements from one or many stations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read and write EDI files, inspect impedance and apparent-resistivity data, analyse phase tensors and directions, manage stations, and plot response curves or sections.
Why use it?
It organizes the calculations and plots needed to compare underground electrical resistivity and related responses across frequencies and locations.

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

mtpy 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 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/mt_analysis.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.

mtpy - Magnetotelluric Analysis

Quick Reference

from mtpy import MT, MTCollection

# Read single station
mt = MT('station001.edi')

# Access data
Z = mt.Z                         # Complex impedance tensor
freq = mt.frequency              # Frequency array
rho_xy = mt.apparent_resistivity[:, 0, 1]  # Apparent resistivity

# Station info
print(mt.station, mt.latitude, mt.longitude)

# Write EDI
mt.write_edi('output.edi')

Key Classes

Class Purpose
MT Single station MT data container
MTCollection Multiple stations management
PlotMTResponse Plot impedance, resistivity, phase
PlotPhaseTensor Phase tensor ellipse visualization
PlotPseudoSection Profile pseudosection display
PlotStrike Strike direction analysis

Essential Operations

Load and Inspect EDI

from mtpy import MT

mt = MT('station001.edi')
print(f"Station: {mt.station}")
print(f"Location: ({mt.latitude}, {mt.longitude})")
print(f"Frequencies: {len(mt.frequency)} points")
print(f"Period range: {1/mt.frequency.max():.2f} - {1/mt.frequency.min():.0f} s")

Load Multiple Stations

from mtpy import MTCollection

mc = MTCollection()
mc.from_edis('survey_data/*.edi')
print(f"Loaded {len(mc)} stations")

for station in mc:
    print(f"  {station.station}: ({station.latitude:.4f}, {station.longitude:.4f})")

Plot MT Response

from mtpy import MT
from mtpy.imaging import PlotMTResponse

mt = MT('station001.edi')
plot = PlotMTResponse(mt)
plot.plot()  # Apparent resistivity and phase

Phase Tensor Analysis

from mtpy import MT
from mtpy.imaging import PlotPhaseTensor

mt = MT('station001.edi')

# Get phase tensor parameters
phi_min = mt.phase_tensor.phimin
phi_max = mt.phase_tensor.phimax
skew = mt.phase_tensor.skew       # 3D indicator

# Plot
pt = PlotPhaseTensor(mt)
pt.plot()

Rotate Impedance Tensor

from mtpy import MT

mt = MT('station001.edi')
mt_rotated = mt.rotate(30)        # 30 degrees clockwise
mt.rotate_to_strike()             # Auto-rotate to geoelectric strike

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.

mtpy is a skill published in the GitHub repository SteadfastAsArt/geoscience-skills (57 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 119 tokens to every session and 1,609 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 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.
