What it does

Hmt Run is an agent skill from psu-efd/pyHMT2D. Run the SRH-2D preprocessor and hydraulic simulation for the currently open project. Use this when the user wants to run, execute, or simulate the model.

Its SKILL.md is about 370 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

  • Simulate the model

Example prompts

  • “/hmt-run”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Check the session. Read .hmt_session.json for model_type.
  2. Run preprocessing (SRH-2D only).
  3. Run the simulation.
  4. Confirm result files were created.
  5. Suggest next steps

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 Run loads about 367 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 159 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~40
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~367

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.

hmt-run
description
Run the SRH-2D preprocessor and hydraulic simulation for the currently open project. Use this when the user wants to run, execute, or simulate the model.

Run preprocessing (SRH-2D) and the hydraulic simulation for the open project.

Prerequisites

A project must be open (/hmt-open) and input files must be saved.

Steps

  1. Check the session. Read .hmt_session.json for model_type. If no project is open, ask the user to run /hmt-open first.

  2. Run preprocessing (SRH-2D only). Skip this step for HEC-RAS models.

    bash
    hmt-cli run_preprocessing

    Report elapsed time on success. On error: show the message and stop.

  3. Run the simulation.

    bash
    hmt-cli run_simulation --args '{"timeout_minutes": 120}'

    For HEC-RAS, pass "faceless": false by default. If the user does not want to see the GUI window, pass "faceless": true. Warn the user this may take several minutes. Report elapsed time and status. On error: show the message and suggest checking pyHMT2D.log.

  4. Confirm result files were created.

    bash
    hmt-cli list_model_files --args '{"directory": "."}'
  5. Suggest next steps: "Run /hmt-results to query output, or /hmt-export to create VTK files for ParaView." For HEC-RAS runs with faceless=false: "Run hmt-cli exit_model to close the HEC-RAS GUI, or hmt-cli close_session to reset the session entirely."
