Omniverse USD Performance Tuning

Scope

Use for broad USD performance work: slow loading, low FPS/interactivity, high GPU or system memory, GPU crash/device lost, validation failures, CAD/conversion-quality triage, profiling, or requests to optimize a scene. This skill owns the user-facing workflow; setup, authentication, profiling, validation, mutation, and reporting are executed by phase references when reached.

Frontmatter keeps version and tools at top level for agentskills.io compatibility; NVCARPS fields live under metadata.

Mandatory session-start gate

Before any tuning output, except a static classification-only answer, follow skills/omniverse-usd-performance-tuning/references/setup-usd-performance-tuning/references/runtime-context-header.md. That reference owns output_path, setup-preflight.json, Format A/Format B, and forbids silent ad hoc probing.

Required behavior:

• Missing or unreadable preflight: invoke setup-usd-performance-tuning.
• Present preflight: print Format A and wait for the user's answer. That reference owns the option set; do not restate or invent options here.
• Runtime already confirmed in this session: use compact Format B:
