Hello, I need to turn this shell system into a space truss. What command can I add without breaking the layout I designed? I don’t know where and what I should add. Grasshopper link is below.

You forgot to internalize your data (i.e. making volatile data to persistent).
Anyway … by space truss you mean what we call a W truss? (i.e. given a “base” template [nodes in any BrepFace/Mesh] create a “top layer - nodes above so to speak” and the connecting axis - the W part of the story).
Like (shown a classic case using a quad Mesh as a template):
Have in mind that in real-life (AEC/BIM games etc) any non “regular” truss (and the related envelope - if exists) is a game solely for pros because there’s lot’s of things that you should take into account. On the other hand is a very bad habit if you deal with things like these with an “abstract” way. If at some later time you’ll become a pro you’ll understand what I’m talking about.
Tip: I would strongly advise to cut the mustard via some tensile membrane (via K2). That makes sense even on student/“abstract” level.
