What it does

Cylinder O Grid is an agent skill from Cai-aa/CAE-Agent-Hub. Plan, create, adapt, and quality-audit coin-style five-block O-grid hexahedral meshes for cylindrical CAE models. Use for software-independent O-grid planning or implementation in a selected preprocessor, including requests mentioning 钱币原理、圆柱网格、中心正方形、顶点切到圆周、结构化六面体网格, mapped square-to-circle partitions, or HEX8 meshes. Includes a generic planner and an Abaqus/CAE execution adapter; do not claim automated support in another CAE application without a matching adapter or proved live native-tool path.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 13 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/abaqus.md` and `references/quality-gates.md`).

The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Software-independent O-grid planning
  • Implementation in a selected preprocessor
  • Including requests mentioning 钱币原理、圆柱网格、中心正方形、顶点切到圆周、结构化六面体网格
  • Mapped square-to-circle partitions

Example prompts

  • “/cylinder-o-grid”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Inspect the current model and preserve a checkpoint before mutation.
  2. Produce an O-grid plan and preview with scripts/plan_ogrid.py.
  3. Select the applicable software route and confirm that its required operations are available.
  4. Partition the cross-section into five logical blocks and propagate them continuously through the cylinder length.
  5. Apply mapped quadrilateral controls on the cross-section and structured or swept hexahedral controls through the axis.
  6. Seed by topological role, not by fragile edge indices.
  7. Generate the mesh and run every gate in references/quality-gates.md, plus target-specific diagnostics.
  8. Save the native model, preview, mesh statistics, quality results, warnings, and any solver audit together.

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

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    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

Cylinder O Grid loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 129 tokens; SKILL.md has 709 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~129
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.4k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Cylinder O-Grid

Create a reviewable coin-style O-grid and accept it only after topology, mesh, and analysis checks pass in the selected CAE workflow.

Establish the task

Collect or infer only low-risk inputs:

  • Identify the target preprocessor, solver, analysis type, and whether the task is plan-only or a live implementation.
  • Distinguish a new cylinder from an existing production part.
  • Record radius R, length L, cylinder axis, units, and any interfaces or local refinement zones.
  • Record the requested brick family and the exact solver-specific formulation when known.
  • Record either target element size or counts for one square side/90-degree arc, radial layers, and axial layers.
  • Ask before changing geometry, deleting an existing mesh, replacing a model, or relaxing a quality gate.

If live access to the target CAE application is unavailable, generate a plan and preview, label them as unexecuted in that application, and do not claim that the mesh was created or validated there.

Enforce the topology

Use a circular cross-section with one centered, axis-aligned square. Connect each square vertex to the circle along the same 45-degree radial direction. Preserve these invariants:

  • Keep 0 < a < R/sqrt(2), where a is the square half-width.
  • Create five sweepable cross-section regions: one center block and four outer sectors.
  • Use the same count n_side on every square side and corresponding 90-degree outer arc.
  • Use the same n_radial on all four vertex-to-circle connector edges.
  • Use the same n_axial on all edges parallel to the cylinder axis.
  • Keep partitions continuous through the full cylinder length and share nodes at every internal boundary.
  • Reject free tetrahedral fallback unless the user explicitly changes the objective.

Read references/topology.md before selecting the square size or element counts.

Route to the target software

  • For every target, first produce and review the software-independent plan with scripts/plan_ogrid.py.
  • For Abaqus/CAE, read references/abaqus.md. Use scripts/abaqus_build_ogrid.py only for a clean, straight cylinder aligned with global Z; adapt the workflow for existing or differently oriented parts.
  • For another CAE preprocessor, translate the five logical blocks, edge roles, mapped quadrilateral controls, axial sweep, and quality gates into its native operations. Use only available registered tools or documented native APIs. No non-Abaqus automated builder is bundled, so deliver plan-only evidence if live construction and readback cannot be proved.

Do not infer solver element codes from the generic HEX8 label. Report both the generic brick family and the exact target formulation actually assigned.

Execute the workflow

  1. Inspect the current model and preserve a checkpoint before mutation.
  2. Produce an O-grid plan and preview with scripts/plan_ogrid.py.
  3. Select the applicable software route and confirm that its required operations are available.
  4. Partition the cross-section into five logical blocks and propagate them continuously through the cylinder length.
  5. Apply mapped quadrilateral controls on the cross-section and structured or swept hexahedral controls through the axis.
  6. Seed by topological role, not by fragile edge indices.
  7. Generate the mesh and run every gate in references/quality-gates.md, plus target-specific diagnostics.
  8. Save the native model, preview, mesh statistics, quality results, warnings, and any solver audit together.

For live automation, prove the real application session with harmless inspection calls before mutation, save a checkpoint, and preserve raw tool output. A bridge response, generated file, or process return code alone is not mesh-quality or solver-validity evidence.

Use the bundled scripts

Create the software-independent plan:

powershell
python scripts/plan_ogrid.py --radius 10 --length 30 --square-ratio 0.40 --circumferential 48 --radial 6 --axial 24 --output-dir ogrid-plan

Dry-run the Abaqus adapter without importing Abaqus modules:

powershell
python scripts/abaqus_build_ogrid.py --dry-run --radius 10 --length 30 --square-ratio 0.40 --circumferential 48 --radial 6 --axial 24

Run the adapter inside Abaqus/CAE after reviewing the plan:

powershell
abaqus cae noGUI=scripts/abaqus_build_ogrid.py -- --radius 10 --length 30 --square-ratio 0.40 --circumferential 48 --radial 6 --axial 24 --cae-out cylinder_ogrid.cae

Treat the Abaqus builder as a starting point for a clean cylinder. Do not run it against a production model without adapting names, orientation, interfaces, and save path.

Report acceptance evidence

Return:

  • Target application, solver, and execution mode: generic plan, live native workflow, or bundled adapter.
  • Geometry parameters and a/R.
  • n_side, total circumferential count, n_radial, and n_axial.
  • Expected and actual node/element counts.
  • Generic brick family, exact assigned formulation, and verified HEX percentage.
  • Mesh-control technique and axial layering direction.
  • Failed mesh diagnostics, worst aspect-ratio result, negative/zero-volume count, and unmeshed regions.
  • A cross-section image with element edges and an axial/swept view.
  • Any unverified item, unavailable target-specific check, or relaxed threshold.

Never state “high quality” without attached measurements and a visual check of the four square-corner transition zones.

Use assets/coin-ogrid-topology.svg as the software-independent topology reference. Use assets/abaqus-live-smoke.png only as an Abaqus appearance example. Never infer quality metrics from images alone.
