I just released my first production-style Nuke plugin: AutoRead v1.0.0

It’s a small tool with a simple goal — remove one of the most repetitive parts of compositing workflows.

Every time a Write node finishes rendering, AutoRead automatically:

✨ Creates a Read node from the rendered sequence
✨ Detects the correct frame range from disk (not assumptions)
✨ Prevents duplicate nodes using internal tracking
✨ Keeps the node graph clean and organised
✨ Optionally connects the Viewer instantly
✨ Updates existing Reads instead of cluttering the script

No more manually browsing folders.
No more re-importing sequences.
No more broken or mismatched frame ranges.

🧠 Under the hood (why it’s different)

AutoRead doesn’t rely on guesswork.

It scans the filesystem after render completion and builds the Read node only from verified existing frames — meaning cancelled or partial renders will never produce broken nodes.

It’s built with a modular architecture:
- filesystem logic isolated from Nuke API
- render callback-based execution
- hidden metadata tracking (not name-based)
- designed for future pipeline expansion

🟢 Built for real workflows

Each Write node gets its own AutoRead control panel:

- Enable / disable per node
- Auto frame range detection
- Auto positioning
- Duplicate handling mode
- Viewer linking toggle
- Clean green “auto-generated” node styling

⚠️ Current limitations

Version 1.0.0 supports image sequences (EXR, PNG, TIFF, JPEG).
MOV support is not yet included but is planned for a future update.

Built and tested in Nuke 17 (Windows).

🛠️ Built with scalability in mind

AutoRead is designed as the foundation for a larger pipeline toolset, with future features planned like:

- Auto Version Up
- Auto Publish
- Render History
- Notifications
- Compare versions

💬 Feedback welcome

This is the first public release and I’d genuinely love feedback from artists, TDs, and anyone using Nuke in production.
