What it does

Rig It is an agent skill from TheOrcDev/skills. Rig and animate game characters that actually hold up in-engine. Contract-driven Blender pipeline with body-plan scaffold rigs for creatures, Mixamo-skeleton packaging for bipeds, rest-pose weight transfer, rigid part seating, numeric gates on a fresh reimport, rendered review frames and reels, Unity Humanoid/Generic export. Use when the user wants to rig a character, skin a mesh, build an armature, author or fix Idle/Locomotion/Attack/Hit/Death clips, package Meshy or Mixamo animations onto a production mesh…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 32 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `RULES.md`, `WORKFLOW.md` and `references/body-plans.md`).

It sits in Game Development, covering Game development. It works with Blender and Godot. The repository describes itself as: Skills for True Dev Warriors.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants to rig a character
  • Build an armature
  • Fix Idle/Locomotion/Attack/Hit/Death clips
  • Mixamo animations onto a production mesh

Example prompts

  • “/rig-it”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Contract first. Write rig-contract.json (schema in

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit bb7eaa5. 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 9 files in scripts/ (Python, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    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

Rig It loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 172 tokens; SKILL.md has 562 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~172
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
~5.7k

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 562 words (~1,649 tokens).

“Rigging fails in chat because the model writes one script, gets an armature that binds, and never sees that the elbow is wrong. This skill never lets you judge a rig from the code that built it. Every rig and…”
