What it does
Touchdesigner is an agent skill from satoruhiga/claude-touchdesigner. Provides patterns and best practices for TouchDesigner via MCP API - operator creation, network layout, rendering, GLSL shaders, data conversion (CHOP/SOP/POP/TOP/DAT). Use when working with TouchDesigner networks.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files (for example `reference/basics.md`, `reference/geometry-comp.md` and `reference/glsl.md`).
It sits in Game Development, covering Shaders and Operations and SOPs. It works with Model Context Protocol.
When your agent uses it
- Working with TouchDesigner networks
- Tasks that involve Shaders
- Tasks that involve Operations and SOPs
Example prompts
- “Use the touchdesigner skill to provide patterns and best practices for TouchDesigner via MCP API - operator creation, network layout, rendering…”
- “/touchdesigner”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Read all .md files in reference/ (REQUIRED for all tasks)
- Verify parameter names using op.TDAPI.GetParameterList()
- Ask yourself: "Do I have sufficient reliable information to proceed?"
- Only if yes, start implementation
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 76a8c29. 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 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
Touchdesigner loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 558 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 558 words (~1,458 tokens).
“Use this skill when creating, modifying, or debugging TouchDesigner networks via the MCP API.”
