From the source SKILL.md

You're running inside OpenRig. OpenRig ships a set of skills — small documents that tell you when to do something and how. This file is the map: what ships, when to reach for each, and how to load it. If you don't know which skill applies, or nothing is projected into your context, start here.

What this skill does

Openrig Skills is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the engineering-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/openrig-skills/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when you're operating OpenRig and need the right skill or context for fleet recovery, seat handover, new-seat orientation, a watchdog wake, cross-host reach to an agent on another machine, rig packaging, an OpenRig upgrade, systematic debugging, queue triage, or implementation planning; also use when you don't know what applies or nothing is projected on cold boot.
