description	Use Nightward to audit local AI agent/devtool config, inspect MCP risk, and generate dry-run backup or schedule plans without leaking secrets.

Nightward

Use this skill when a task asks to inspect local AI agent configs, MCP servers, dotfiles backup safety, or scheduled config scans with the nightward CLI.

Safe Order

1. Verify the command exists:

   command -v nightward || go run ./cmd/nightward --help
   

2. Run a read-only health check:

   nightward doctor --json
   

3. Run a redacted scan:

   nightward scan --json
   

4. Generate a dry-run backup plan:

   nightward plan backup --json
   

5. Preview scheduling before installing anything:

   nightward schedule install --preset nightly --dry-run
   

Do Not

• Do not run schedule install or schedule remove without explicit user approval.
• Do not copy files from scan output manually; use the backup plan classifications.
• Do not sync secret-auth, runtime-cache, or app-owned items into dotfiles.
• Do not assume MCP findings are false positives; review the command, env keys, and local paths first.

Notes

Nightward v1 is local-only and read-mostly. Scan and plan commands do not mutate user config. The only write paths are explicit schedule install/remove commands.
