What it does

Ansys Mechanical Evidence Structural is an agent skill from Cai-aa/CAE-Agent-Hub. Evidence-first Ansys Mechanical structural automation through Workbench RunWB2 journals, Mechanical Scripting/ACT ExtAPI, or PyMechanical gRPC. Use when Codex must build, solve, inspect, postprocess, or validate static, modal, thermal-structural, contact, nonlinear, or other Mechanical analyses with mesh metrics, MAPDL logs, reaction balance, RST files, numeric exports, and result images.

Its SKILL.md is about 550 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml` and `references/acceptance-gates.md`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering gRPC and Protobuf. It works with gRPC. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Codex must build
  • Validate static
  • Thermal-structural
  • Other Mechanical analyses with mesh metrics

Example prompts

  • “/ansys-mechanical-evidence-structural”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Use RunWB2.exe -B -R for project-level orchestration.
  2. Use Mechanical Scripting/ACT with ExtAPI for model-tree operations.
  3. Use PyMechanical gRPC for an external Python controller and explicit session lifecycle.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 194ef49. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are powershell).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ansys Mechanical Evidence Structural loads about 554 tokens when it runs, and up to ~829 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 107 tokens; SKILL.md has 163 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~107
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~554
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~829

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Evidence-first Ansys Mechanical structural automation through Workbench RunWB2 journals, Mechanical Scripting/ACT ExtAPI, or PyMechanical gRPC. Use when Codex must build, solve, inspect, postprocess, or validate static, modal, thermal-structural, contact, nonlinear, or other Mechanical analyses with mesh metrics, MAPDL logs, reaction balance, RST files, numeric exports, and result images.

Ansys Mechanical Evidence Structural

Treat Mechanical as its own solver module. Workbench is an orchestration route, not proof that the Mechanical analysis solved.

Start

powershell
ai-cae-toolbox context-scope --solver ansys-mechanical
ai-cae-toolbox bridge-plan --solver ansys-mechanical --objective "<objective>"
ai-cae-toolbox create-run --solver ansys-mechanical --case <case-name> --objective "<objective>"

If MCP is available, prefer:

  • mechanical_check_installation
  • mechanical_run_workbench_journal_file
  • mechanical_run_python_controller_file
  • mechanical_validate_result_summary_file

Choose One Control Route

  1. Use RunWB2.exe -B -R <journal.wbjn> for project-level orchestration.
  2. Use Mechanical Scripting/ACT with ExtAPI for model-tree operations.
  3. Use PyMechanical gRPC for an external Python controller and explicit session lifecycle.

Record the selected route and do not let two controllers own the same session.

Model and Solve

Audit units, geometry scale, materials, contacts, joints, loads, constraints, large-deflection setting, solver controls, result requests, and mesh controls. Use stable names for bodies, named selections, contacts, loads, and results.

Before claiming success, read references/acceptance-gates.md. A .mechdat, Workbench project, or result PNG alone is insufficient.

Finish

Export .mechdat or .wbpj, file.rst, solve.out, mesh metrics, load and reaction data, result CSV/JSON, PNG images, and report.md. State every approximation such as bonded contacts, suppressed bodies, linear materials, or disabled large deformation.
