## Additional Information

I wont to add new animation to the biped\_setup animation\_graph and I sow that the SimulationManager used with replicator already add the animation added to the CustomCommand. I have some animation downloaded from the MoveAI extension. I have problem to generate the usd file containing the only animation that work correctly. Can someone give me a help to generate them using python API?

There are no APIs to generate animation USDs. They are either hand-crafted and motion-captured.
