What it does

Hmt Export is an agent skill from psu-efd/pyHMT2D. Export simulation results and/or the computational mesh to VTK files for ParaView visualization. Use this when the user wants to export, visualize, or create VTK files.

Its SKILL.md is about 270 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Python Hydraulic Modeling Tools - 2D. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Wants to export
  • Create VTK files

Example prompts

  • “/hmt-export”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Check session state.
  2. Export results to VTK.
  3. Optionally export the mesh only (SRH-2D only).
  4. Report all exported file paths.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 57645ff. 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 bash).

    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

Hmt Export loads about 272 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 93 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~272

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
Export simulation results and/or the computational mesh to VTK files for ParaView visualization. Use this when the user wants to export, visualize, or create VTK files.

Export simulation results and/or the computational mesh to VTK files for ParaView visualization.

Prerequisites

A project must be open. Results must be loaded (run /hmt-results first if needed).

Steps

  1. Check session state. If result_loaded is false in .hmt_session.json, load results first:

    bash
    hmt-cli read_results --args '{"result_file": "<path>", "timestep": -1}'
  2. Export results to VTK.

    bash
    hmt-cli export_to_vtk --args '{"timestep": -1, "output_dir": "./vtk_output"}'

    Report: list of VTK file paths created.

  3. Optionally export the mesh only (SRH-2D only). Ask: "Do you also want to export just the computational mesh (no result data)?" If yes:

    bash
    hmt-cli export_mesh_to_vtk
  4. Report all exported file paths. "Open these files in ParaView to visualize the results."
