## What it does

This skill acts as a contributor reference for WendyOS, an embedded Linux system targeting edge hardware like NVIDIA Jetson, Raspberry Pi boards, and ARM64 emulation targets. It explains the setup of layers like `meta-wendyos-jetson` or `meta-wendyos-rpi`, along with running `bitbake` targets through bootstrap scripts or Docker environments on macOS.

It also details the internal architecture of `wendy-agent`, a gRPC daemon on port 50051 that receives deployments directly from source code instead of standard registries. A dedicated section covers Swift integration suites in `E2ETests/`. Standard GitHub Actions runners do not support nested virtualization, so testing VM workloads requires local hardware or self-hosted instances.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add wendylabsinc/claude-skills --skill wendy-contributing -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/wendy-contributing/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/wendy-contributing/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add wendylabsinc/claude-skills --skill wendy-contributing -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/wendy-contributing/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add wendylabsinc/claude-skills --skill wendy-contributing -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/wendy-contributing/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install wendylabsinc/claude-skills wendy-contributing
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/wendy-contributing/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add wendylabsinc/claude-skills --skill wendy-contributing -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/wendylabsinc/claude-skills --path wendy-contributing
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/wendy-contributing/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add wendylabsinc/claude-skills --skill wendy-contributing -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/wendylabsinc/claude-skills/tree/HEAD/wendy-contributing/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- Build WendyOS target images using bitbake and meta layers
- Configure Swift E2E test suites with fast-path execution
- Debug containerd daemon workflows and gRPC control sockets
- Prepare virtual development environments for local edge testing

## Example prompts
- Show me how to compile the edgeos-image layer for NVIDIA Jetson targets
- Run the wendy-agent Swift integration test suite against my active VM
- Explain how container deployments work via the wendy run CLI
