Bootstrap stage - diagnose and manage Maya plug-ins: enumerate what Maya knows, load and unload them, and explain precisely why one is unusable (missing file, not on the search path, not loaded, or refusing to unload). Use when a command or node type is missing, when a plug-in fails to load, or before relying on a renderer or third-party integration. For running code rather than managing plug-ins, use maya-scripting.
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-plugins (Bootstrap stage) Manage and diagnose Maya plug-ins. The emphasis is on **actionable failures**: when something is unusable, the error says which of the four causes it is and what to do about it. ## Verified Maya behaviours Three things drive this design and are invisible under a mock (verified on Maya 2025): - `pluginInfo` metadata flags - `path`, `version`, `vendor`, `apiVersion`, `unloadOk`, `name` - are only valid **while the plug-in is loaded**. Querying them for an unloaded plug-in raises. They are read opportunistically and reported as unavailable with a reason, never as a failure of the whole call. - `pluginInfo` has **no dependency flag** at all (`dependents`, `dependencies`, `requires` are all rejected). Dependencies are inferred from the search path instead of pretending to be queryable. - `cmds.loadPlugin(..., quiet=True)` **still raises** when the plug-in cannot be found - `quiet` does not suppress load errors. A failed load is therefore always an error, and Maya's message is surfaced verbatim. There is also no `cmds.pluginPath` or `cmds.getenv`; the search path comes from …

How to install
mdr add dcc-mcp/dcc-mcp-maya/maya-plugins@sha256:d7b236f3452837eeThe 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.
