3ds Max Render and Viewport Skill

Capture viewport evidence, render scenes to image files, generate previews, inspect render settings, and change common render output options through pymxs.

Output-producing tools validate extensions, parent directories, and overwrite behavior before invoking host operations, then return artifact metadata.
