Skeleton Script for Maya using MEL (Maya Embedded Language)

Here is an older skeleton script I put together all the way back in 2018.
The original MEL script was a copy past, with a few minor renaming of objects here and there.
Though I took time recently to update and comment out what parts do what in the code. There are still more things to adjust such as adding Ik/Fk and the respective controllers. As well as setting the internal attributes to match the specific joints, so that Maya's default mirror weights tool works correctly.
I also plan to remake this script using PyMel in the future.

Anyway, here is the full script if I used. incase you want to mess around with it.
