description	Scene stage — read, write, lock, and create attributes on any Maya node. Use whenever you need to query or set an attribute value with a typed, validated tool instead of dropping into execute_python. Not for connecting attributes (use maya-node-graph) or scripting full procedures (use maya-scripting).

maya-attributes (Scene stage)

Typed wrappers around the most common maya.cmds attribute calls (getAttr, setAttr, addAttr, deleteAttr, listAttr).

These are kept as a dedicated skill — instead of being folded into maya-scripting — because attribute editing is the single most common operation an agent performs and it benefits from full inputSchema validation, error classification, and idempotency hints.
