Teknium 98db898c0b feat(skills): declare platforms frontmatter for all 79 undeclared built-in skills
Completes the Windows-gating coverage for the built-in skills/ tree. Every
bundled SKILL.md now carries an explicit platforms: declaration so the
loader (agent.skill_utils.skill_matches_platform) can skip-load skills
that don't fit the current OS.

74 skills declared cross-platform (platforms: [linux, macos, windows]):
  Creative (16): ascii-art, ascii-video, architecture-diagram, baoyu-comic,
    baoyu-infographic, claude-design, creative-ideation, design-md,
    excalidraw, humanizer, manim-video, p5js, pixel-art,
    popular-web-designs, pretext, sketch, songwriting-and-ai-music,
    touchdesigner-mcp
  Autonomous agents: claude-code, codex, hermes-agent, opencode
  Data/devops: jupyter-live-kernel, kanban-orchestrator, kanban-worker,
    webhook-subscriptions, dogfood, codebase-inspection

5 skills gated from Windows (platforms: [linux, macos]):
  mlops/inference/vllm (serving-llms-vllm)
    vLLM is officially Linux-only; Windows requires WSL.
  mlops/training/axolotl
    Axolotl's flash-attn + deepspeed + bitsandbytes stack is Linux-first.
  mlops/training/unsloth
    Requires Triton + xformers + flash-attn — Linux only in practice.
  mlops/models/audiocraft (audiocraft-audio-generation)
    torchaudio ffmpeg backend + encodec dependencies are Linux-first.
  mlops/inference/obliteratus
    Research abliteration workflow; relies on Linux-focused pytorch
    kernels and MLX — no first-class Windows path.

Same strict-over-lenient policy as the optional-skills sweep: when the
underlying tool's Windows support is rough, missing, or WSL-only, gate the
skill. Easier to un-gate after verified Windows support lands than to leak
partial support that manifests as mid-task failures.

Combined with prior commits in this branch, every bundled SKILL.md
(skills/ + optional-skills/) now has a platforms: declaration.

OpenHue CLI

Control Philips Hue lights and scenes via a Hue Bridge from the terminal.

Prerequisites

# Linux (pre-built binary)
curl -sL https://github.com/openhue/openhue-cli/releases/latest/download/openhue-linux-amd64 -o ~/.local/bin/openhue && chmod +x ~/.local/bin/openhue

# macOS
brew install openhue/cli/openhue-cli

First run requires pressing the button on your Hue Bridge to pair. The bridge must be on the same local network.

When to Use

  • "Turn on/off the lights"
  • "Dim the living room lights"
  • "Set a scene" or "movie mode"
  • Controlling specific Hue rooms, zones, or individual bulbs
  • Adjusting brightness, color, or color temperature

Common Commands

List Resources

openhue get light       # List all lights
openhue get room        # List all rooms
openhue get scene       # List all scenes

Control Lights

# Turn on/off
openhue set light "Bedroom Lamp" --on
openhue set light "Bedroom Lamp" --off

# Brightness (0-100)
openhue set light "Bedroom Lamp" --on --brightness 50

# Color temperature (warm to cool: 153-500 mirek)
openhue set light "Bedroom Lamp" --on --temperature 300

# Color (by name or hex)
openhue set light "Bedroom Lamp" --on --color red
openhue set light "Bedroom Lamp" --on --rgb "#FF5500"

Control Rooms

# Turn off entire room
openhue set room "Bedroom" --off

# Set room brightness
openhue set room "Bedroom" --on --brightness 30

Scenes

openhue set scene "Relax" --room "Bedroom"
openhue set scene "Concentrate" --room "Office"

Quick Presets

# Bedtime (dim warm)
openhue set room "Bedroom" --on --brightness 20 --temperature 450

# Work mode (bright cool)
openhue set room "Office" --on --brightness 100 --temperature 250

# Movie mode (dim)
openhue set room "Living Room" --on --brightness 10

# Everything off
openhue set room "Bedroom" --off
openhue set room "Office" --off
openhue set room "Living Room" --off

Notes

  • Bridge must be on the same local network as the machine running Hermes
  • First run requires physically pressing the button on the Hue Bridge to authorize
  • Colors only work on color-capable bulbs (not white-only models)
  • Light and room names are case-sensitive — use openhue get light to check exact names
  • Works great with cron jobs for scheduled lighting (e.g. dim at bedtime, bright at wake)
