Use when working on how games look on a Batocera cabinet: CRT and other shaders, shaderset resolution and per-game shader overrides, bezel/overlay artwork and alignment, generating missing .info sidecars, filtering unusable bezels, pinning the display resolution, or diagnosing moire and cropped/misaligned game viewports inside bezels. Covers why a shaderset seems invalid, why .info top values are not alpha coordinates, and why Mega-Bezel per-game art fails. Not for performance/framerate tuning (batocera-tuning).

From the source SKILL.md

Shaders, bezels, and display mode — everything about how the picture looks. Assumes the connection pattern, batocera.conf/configgen model, and verify loop from batocera-ops. Because display changes are visual, the batocera-ops remote verify loop (ES HTTP API launch + batocera-screenshot) is your primary tool here: never declare a shader or bezel "working" from the config alone — launch it and look.
