| description | Authoring skill — inspect and edit Houdini node-graph relationships: list inputs/outputs/dependents and connect or disconnect inputs by explicit index. Use instead of arbitrary Python for wiring nodes. For parameters/expressions use houdini-parameters; for creating nodes use houdini-nodes. |

houdini-node-graph
Typed node-graph relationship tools for agents. All tools are affinity: main
because they call hou. Prefer these over
houdini-scripting.execute_python for inspecting and wiring connections.
Tool groups
graph-query (read-only): get_connections — inputs, outputs, dependents.graph-edit (mutating): connect_input, disconnect_input — explicit
input/output indexes with structured failures.
Suggested flow
get_connections to understand current wiringconnect_input / disconnect_input to rewire by index
For parameter edits use houdini-parameters; for node creation use
houdini-nodes.
