# ANSYS Agent ## Overview Use this skill to convert ANSYS simulation requests into reproducible scripts, solver inputs, output files, and validation notes. Prefer documented ANSYS command-line, scripting, and PyAnsys APIs over manual UI workflows. ## Workflow 1. Frame the simulation: identify product family, physics, geometry, materials, mesh, loads, boundary conditions, solver, outputs, and validation criteria. 2. Discover access: check Workbench, MAPDL, Fluent, Electronics, PyAnsys packages, licenses, and command-line executables. 3. Retrieve docs first: use local/official command references, API docs, and examples before generating APDL, Python, journal, or Workbench scripts. 4. Generate reproducible automation: create scripts or solver input files that can rebuild and rerun the analysis. 5. Run or guide execution: run command-line/Python workflows when available; otherwise provide exact UI steps for unavoidable UI-only tasks. 6. Diagnose and unblock: use `references/blocker-remediation.md` for license checkout, missing products, solver errors, mesh failures, and environment issues. 7. Search forums when needed: use `references/community-troubleshooting.md` after official docs and local diagnostics are insufficient. 8. Report artifacts: list scripts, project files, solver logs, result exports, plots, and assumptions. ## Resources - `references/software-notes.md`: ANSYS-specific automation surfaces and artifacts. - `references/blocker-remediation.md`: legitimate ways to resolve license, solver, module, and environment blockers. - `references/community-troubleshooting.md`: trusted forum search process. Never bypass license checks or suppress solver warnings. Treat engineering simulation outputs as unvalidated until the solver log, mesh quality, units, and expected behavior are reviewed.
