AutoGineer summary
Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author
The Omniverse Realtime Viewer skill acts as a central routing and architectural framework for developing USD-based 3D viewer applications. It provides a structured approach to composing rendering, scene state, and delivery mechanisms, ensuring that developers can integrate OVRTX rendering, OVStage scene management, and various UI or streaming adapters effectively. The skill emphasizes a modular architecture where the viewer runtime, UI/input adapters, and delivery systems are decoupled, allowing for consistent behavior across local and streamed environments.
What it does
- Provides a routing architecture for USD viewer apps, XR delivery, and GPU-accelerated rendering.
- Defines the separation of concerns between viewer runtime, UI adapters, and delivery systems.
- Offers guidance on integrating OVRTX for high-fidelity 3D rendering.
- Establishes conventions for camera interaction, scene state management, and input handling.
- Supports the implementation of specialized features like stylized rendering and CAE/CFD visualization.
- Provides protocols for agent-to-UI communication and scene control.
When to use it
- When starting the development of a new USD-based realtime viewer application.
- When integrating advanced rendering features like stylized visualization or AOV switching.
- When building XR or spatial editing capabilities into an existing Omniverse application.
- When you need to standardize the architecture for local and streamed viewer deployments.
- When implementing chat-driven scene control or agent-based inspection of a 3D scene.
Advantages
- Promotes a clean, modular architecture that separates rendering logic from UI and transport.
- Ensures consistent behavior across different delivery methods, such as local windows or WebRTC streaming.
- Provides clear paths for extending functionality without disrupting the core viewer runtime.
- Facilitates the integration of complex simulation and visualization data into the viewer.
- Standardizes conventions for scene state, selection, and camera control.
Usage examples
- “How do I set up a basic USD viewer application using the Omniverse Realtime Viewer architecture?”
- The agent will guide you to start with the viewer app reference, resolve dependencies, and implement the core runtime owner to manage the OVStage and OVRTX renderer.
- “I need to add stylized rendering to my existing viewer. Where should I start?”
- The agent will direct you to the stylized visualization references to implement the required USD/Lua/CUDA nodes within your existing runtime owner.
- “How can I enable an AI agent to control the viewer scene?”
- The agent will point to the A2UI Scene Copilot reference to implement an operation interface that allows the agent to send commands through the existing runtime owner.
- “How do I switch between different render outputs like beauty and depth in my viewer?”
- The agent will explain how to use the AOV switching reference to map RenderVars and update the RenderProduct's orderedVars through the runtime owner.

Omniverse Realtime Viewer
Build responsive USD viewers by composing OVRTX rendering, OVStage scene state, and the delivery/UI libraries appropriate to the app. Use this package for viewer architecture and interaction; use each selected SDK's upstream guidance for installation and exact release-specific APIs.
Start With The App
When delivery is explicit, select its recipe through
references/routing.mdand follow its current phase. Otherwise start withreferences/usd-viewer-app/README.md. For an existing app, keep its architecture and read only the references for the requested change. Broad app, conventions and UI catalogs are lookups as needed.Resolve the selected libraries through
references/dependencies/README.md. Preserve the project's manifest unless an upgrade is requested.Build a working frame and camera interaction in the chosen shell, then add the requested capabilities. Read
references/conventions.mdfor shared input, camera, selection, and protocol conventions.Use
references/viewer-ux-workflow/README.mdfor broader interface design. Loading, selection feedback, errors, and input responsiveness belong in the first working app, alongside rendering.Validate the actual delivery path with
references/validation.md. A browser screenshot does not validate a native window or a different transport.
Architecture
| Owner | Responsibility |
|---|---|
| Viewer runtime | Own the live OVStage, publication clock, OVRTX renderer, scene changes, and render stepping. |
| UI and input adapter | Display frames and copied app state; send user intent to the runtime owner. |
| Storage/query/simulation workers | Perform their assigned work and return results through the selected integration boundary. |
| Delivery adapter | Present locally or stream through ovstream; respect frame ownership and backpressure. |
Use OVRTX for USD/3D rendering. Browser apps display its WebRTC video; local apps present its output through their native shell. A missing GPU means rendering is unverified, not a reason to substitute a browser 3D renderer.
Keep viewer cameras, settings, effects, and transient edits in app-owned session
or runtime state so the source USD stays intact. Serialize scene mutation and
render stepping through the runtime owner. Read
references/ovstage-ovrtx-integration/README.md for that loop, then the population
or data-plane references when implementing scene loading or attribute writes.
Keep expensive loading and metadata work off the UI and render threads. Keep transport details behind a delivery adapter so camera, selection, properties, and loading state can be reused across local and streamed shells.
Add Capabilities As Needed
Use references/routing.md to select camera/picking, scene management, render
settings, cloud assets, simulation, editor tools, deployment, or CAE/CFD
visualization. Read the selected capability's implementation flow and its linked
contract; the full reference catalog is not a prerequisite for a first frame.
For simulation, use the routing reference's Simulation Ecosystem section plus
references/realtime-sim-integration/README.md. For UI-driven forces or control,
add references/interaction-round-trip/README.md.
For example scenes, use references/usd-sample-data/README.md. When a runtime
failure needs diagnosis, use references/troubleshooting/README.md and the
selected SDK's matching release guidance before changing the architecture.
Solid Modeling: Upstream First
For usd-brep, exact BRep, solid modeling, kernel failures, CAD topology, or
BrepArray questions, first read references/dependencies/README.md → USD BRep. Follow the
owning repository's current agent guidance, skills, operation docs, and package
API before selecting local integration references. Discover the upstream router
rather than assuming skill names or directory layouts remain fixed. Upstream
owns modeling semantics, schema rules, tuning, and diagnostics; this package
owns OVRTX display, worker handoff, selection mapping, and publication timing.
GPU Processing And Stylized Viewers
For custom GPU processing, chained outputs and lens sampling, read
references/spg-processing/README.md. For toon, ink, technical/X-Ray styles,
geometry strokes or full wireframe, continue to
references/stylized-visualization/implementation.md. Its USD/Lua/CUDA starting
node and geometry/depth/composite build sequence work with the selected viewer
recipe; use references/stylized-visualization/style-recipes.md for the preset
math and references/stylized-visualization/README.md for supporting contracts.
Implement the result inside the existing OVRTX/runtime owner and deliver the
published processed output. These instructions do not require a sample checkout
or a prior stylized-rendering implementation.
For an optional usd-brep geometry source, first read
references/dependencies/README.md → USD BRep and the owning repository's
current agent guidance, skills, and operation docs; then read
references/stylized-visualization/usd-brep-source.md for the display boundary.
XR Viewers
For headsets, immersive viewers, or spatial editors, start with
references/xr-viewer-recipe/README.md. Resolve SDK setup and contracts through
references/dependencies/ovxr.md; the library owns OpenXR lifecycle and frame
submission. For controllers, hands, navigation, or scene tools, add
references/xr-spatial-input/README.md and
references/ovxr-python-interactions/README.md. For projection-integrated UI,
read references/ovxr-composition-ui/README.md and
references/ovxr-composition-ui-validation/README.md.

Viewer UX Workflow
Triggers
Use this skill for UI brief, UX, viewer UI workflow, viewer layout, app shell, panels, toolbar, inspector, form controls, status UI, redesign, React frontend, ovui UI, ovui_widgets editor UI, Dear ImGui UI, or viewer interface routing.
Use this after delivery-path routing when the request changes the user-facing interface of an Omniverse Realtime Viewer. It complements usd-viewer-app, viewer-backend-interface, streaming-client, tauri-local-viewer, electron-shm-viewer, ovui-local-viewer-recipe, cpp-native-viewer, and ovwidgets-editor-shell.
Ground Rules
The user-facing UI does not render USD or 3D geometry. It displays an
ovrtxoutput surface and manages UI around it.Favor the existing app's component system and styling conventions. If none exists in a web frontend, build plain React components with semantic HTML and predictable CSS before adding a new UI dependency. For native
ovui,ovui_widgets, or Dear ImGui apps, translate the same interaction intent into the toolkit's existing primitives.Treat the UI as part of the product, not a mockup. Implement reachable states, handlers, disabled/loading behavior, and validation evidence.
Keep transport-specific code behind
ViewerBackendor the selected delivery adapter. Panels should not call raw WebRTC, Tauri, Electron, or server APIs directly unless a narrower skill requires it.
Workflow
Capture the user's goal before choosing components.
Identify the primary user activity: view, inspect, edit, browse assets, tune rendering, or monitor a session.
State the information hierarchy. In most viewer apps, the viewport is primary; outliner, inspector, settings, and status are supporting surfaces.
Record hard constraints from the prompt, such as desktop/mobile, compact/dense, named reference apps, or required controls.
Route to the focused references.
| Need | Read |
|---|---|
| Broad viewer implementation | usd-viewer-app |
| Delivery and transport | streaming-vs-local, then the chosen delivery skills |
| Shared React interfaces | viewer-backend-interface |
| App shell, panels, drawers, responsive layout | viewer-layout-patterns |
| Toolbars, actions, forms, sliders, confirmations | viewer-control-patterns |
| Stage tree, asset grid, property inspector, JSON display | viewer-data-view-patterns |
| Loading, errors, stream health, destructive-action warnings | viewer-feedback-status |
| Headset panels, toolbelt, spatial controls and visual polish | XR experience quality, then composition UI |
For XR, reuse the information hierarchy, semantic actions and state feedback below, not desktop-specific CSS, viewport mouse capture or orbit-camera rules. The spatial references own physical placement, ray/gesture capture and headset proof. A React companion shell is optional and does not supply headset widgets.
Declare the layout before writing component code.
Name regions by purpose: Viewport Panel, Outliner Panel, Properties Panel, Asset Browser, Render Settings.
Decide which surfaces are permanent panels, temporary drawers, anchored inspectors, or blocking dialogs.
Define which state each panel owns and which shared signals it observes: selected prim paths, stage-load state, stream status, active AOV, render settings.
Resolve component gaps conservatively.
First reuse existing components from the app or the generated local viewer UI module from
viewer-backend-interface.If a component is missing, compose from local primitives and promote it as a named component with a small prop contract.
Do not bake transport details into a promoted UI component. Pass data and callbacks through typed props or
ViewerBackend.
Implement with stable spatial contracts.
For web shells, use CSS grid/flex tracks with
min-height: 0, constrained overflow, and stable viewport dimensions. XR surfaces instead follow their declared physical size, anchor and raster contracts.Do not let tree expansion, inspector contents, or status banners resize the rendered surface unless the user explicitly asked for an adaptive layout.
Provide explicit empty states for selection-driven panels instead of showing stale data or blank panes.
Validate the actual interface.
Run the app's typecheck/build/tests where available.
For browser frontends, capture Playwright or equivalent screenshots at desktop and narrow widths.
Verify no text overlap, no panel overflow into the viewport, no blank video/canvas surface, and no broken disabled/loading states.
Output Expectations
For non-trivial UI work, leave the generated app with:
Named components, widgets, or functions for major views and panels.
A small state model, context, or adapter surface that exposes selection, stream status, loading, and settings.
Clear adapter boundaries between UI components and transport/backend calls.
Validation notes or artifacts showing the main layout, a selected object, a loading/error state, and a narrow viewport.
