Opus 4.8 Build a Vellum Simulation in Houdini

I tested Claude Opus 4.8 inside Houdini AI Assistant using HDA Architect.

The goal was simple:
Prompt → Generate Houdini Network → Inspect Nodes → Run Vellum Simulation

For this test, I asked the assistant to create a torn cloth / banner setup with pinned points, procedural holes, collision objects, Vellum constraints, and a final cloth simulation.
What I like about this workflow is that it is not just “AI giving advice.”
Houdini AI Assistant can help with:

Scene and node analysis
Debugging Houdini networks
Generating VEX code
Generating Python tools and scripts
Explaining complex setups
Creating procedural node networks
Building HDA-style workflows from prompts
Documenting Houdini networks
Assisting with SOPs, simulations, materials, render setups, and more
