OVITO Evidence Postprocessing

SkillFiles & storage

Evidence-first OVITO atomistic postprocessing for LAMMPS trajectories and other particle data, including pipeline construction, modifiers, coloring, clipping, camera setup, images, animations, tables, and state files. Use when Codex must inspect or present molecular-dynamics results while distinguishing OVITO Basic GUI availability from ovitos/external Python automation and separating rendering evidence from upstream solver evidence.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the OVITO Evidence Postprocessing skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by cai-aa/cae-agent-hub in Skill/ovito/ovito-evidence-postprocessing/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

OVITO explains and renders atomistic data; it does not prove that the upstream simulation was physically correct.

Start

ai-cae-toolbox context-scope --solver ovito
ai-cae-toolbox bridge-plan --solver ovito --objective "<objective>"
ai-cae-toolbox create-run --solver ovito --case <case-name> --objective "<objective>"
ai-cae-toolbox write-smoke-template --solver ovito --run-dir <run-dir>

Use ovito_check_installation before scripting. OVITO Basic may include ovito.exe but not ovitos; configure a compatible external Python with the OVITO package when batch scripting is required.

Build the Pipeline

Record input trajectory, frame range, particle properties, modifiers and their parameters, selection/deletion rules, color mapping, clipping plane, camera, render size, background, and export interval.

For strain or defect visualizations, record the reference configuration, neighbor cutoff, crystal structure, and modifier assumptions. Read references/render-evidence.md.

Finish

Export the pipeline script, PNG/MP4, numeric table when available, and a short caption defining every color and scalar range. State whether the output came from OVITO, a compatible Python implementation, or another plotting library. Never label a substitute plot as native OVITO output.
