maya-dynamics

name	maya-dynamics
description	Authoring stage - classic Maya dynamics primitives: rigid bodies, force fields, and field connections. Use for small simulation setup steps before baking with maya-animation. Not for keyframe editing (maya-animation), mesh modeling (maya-mesh-ops), or viewport output (maya-render).

maya-dynamics (Authoring stage)

Typed wrappers for Maya's classic dynamics setup commands. Keep this skill focused on small graph mutations that agents otherwise tend to attempt through execute_python with fragile command flags.

Use maya-animation.bake_simulation after the dynamic setup is working and needs to be converted to keyframes for export.

Scripts

• list_dynamics - List rigid bodies, dynamic fields, and rigid constraints
• make_rigid_body - Add active or passive rigid bodies to scene objects
• set_rigid_body_properties - Edit common rigid body physical properties
• create_gravity_field - Create a gravity field and optionally connect targets
• connect_dynamic_field - Connect or disconnect existing fields from dynamic targets
