Use when driving Simcenter STAR-CCM+ for CFD/multiphysics tasks: batch macro execution, mesh generation, solver setup, and result extraction. Choose the smallest real control path first: direct `starccm+` launcher/batch, local project artifacts, native Java macros, or sim-cli when standardized runtime validation, diagnostics, sessions, and artifact handling are useful.

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

# starccm-sim

Skill for controlling **Simcenter STAR-CCM+** through the simplest real path
that can produce evidence: direct `starccm+` launcher/batch commands, saved
`.sim` inspection, native Java macros, or `sim-cli` when its runtime layer is
useful.

---

## First principles

1. **Star-CCM+ uses Java macros, not Python scripts.** Every automation script is a `.java` file extending `StarMacro`. There is no pip-installable Python SDK.
2. **Execution is batch-mode subprocess.** `starccm+ -batch macro.java [case.sim]` — sim never imports Star-CCM+ libraries.
3. **The macro recorder is your best API discovery tool.** Record GUI actions → read generated `.java` → adapt.
4. **License is required.** `CDLMD_LICENSE_FILE` must point to a valid license file. The driver auto-detects `license.dat` near the installation.

---

## Hard constraints

- **Script format**: `.java` files only. Must `extends StarMacro` and `import star.common.*`.
- **Output convention**: Print a JSON object via `sim.println(jsonString)` as the last meaningful output line. The driver's `parse_output()` extracts it.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add svd-ai-lab/sim-cli/starccm-sim@sha256:bb4efa30b446781d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261018.51441ab, 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.
