Pipeline stage - build node-based compositing networks inside Maya: read rendered imagery from disk, stack it in a layeredTexture with per-layer blend modes and opacity, merge passes with blend/over/add/multiply, and wire colour and maths utility nodes. Use to combine a beauty pass with AOVs, mattes or keyed elements for in-scene review or render. Not for deciding where renders land (render_setup.plan_comp_outputs), not for render layers and AOV setup (maya-render-setup), and not for…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# maya-compositing (Pipeline stage) Builds the shading/utility node network that combines **already-rendered** imagery inside Maya, so a comp can be reviewed or rendered without leaving the scene. It is the companion to `render_setup.plan_comp_outputs`, which decides where those images land on disk. ## Typical flow 1. `create_image_reader` — one per image sequence. Set `use_frame_extension=True` for `name.####.exr` sequences, and `frame_offset` when the render starts at a non-zero frame. 2. `create_layer_stack` — an empty `layeredTexture` to stack into. 3. `add_comp_layer` — connect each reader, choosing `blend_mode` and `opacity`. 4. `list_comp_layers` — verify order, modes and opacity before rendering. 5. `merge_comp_layers` — shortcut for two sources: `blend` gives a uniform mix via `blender`, the other operations stack with the matching blend mode. 6. `create_comp_node` + `connect_comp_nodes` — insert `reverse`, `multiplyDivide`, `luminance`, `clamp` or `setRange` for keys and grades. ## Verified Maya behaviours Three things are easy to get wrong and invisible under a mock (all verified on Maya 2025): …

How to install
mdr add dcc-mcp/dcc-mcp-maya/maya-compositing@sha256:d2e2de2c1506f2d1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260922.9206279, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
