AdvancedSkeleton rigging skills for dcc-mcp-maya.
Illustrative workflow derived from the verified Cesium Man test case. Cesium Man is copyright 2017 Cesium and is used under its model-specific license; see the case license.
| Requested workflow | Skill tools |
|---|---|
| Discover the installed body/limb FitSkeleton presets | inspect_advancedskeleton |
| Import and position a standard FitSkeleton | import_fit_skeleton |
| Build a custom modular skeleton from labels and attributes | create_fit_skeleton, configure_fit_joint |
| Configure twist/bendy, orientation, follow, and controller generation | configure_fit_joint |
| Build once, edit FitSkeleton, and reproduce the rig | build_advancedskeleton (Build/ReBuild) |
The workbook's Root -> Shoulder -> Elbow -> Hand-labelled Wrist acceptance case is runnable from RECIPES.md.
This verified case combines maya-advancedskeleton with the Maya import,
rigging, animation, and playblast tools. This Skill owns FitSkeleton setup and
the AdvancedSkeleton build; the run/jump animation is downstream validation.

Watch the 300-frame run/jump playblast (H.264, 1280x720, 24 fps, 12.5 seconds, approximately 15 metres of travel).

- No arbitrary MEL execution tool.
- Template names cannot escape AdvancedSkeleton's installed template directories.
- Joint, label, and AdvancedSkeleton attribute inputs are validated.
