Based on SOC occupation classification
Entry skill for `.codex` collaboration. Read the role-specific manual for your current client.
Reusable NixOS, Home Manager, and flake configuration patterns. Use when planner or implementer needs proven directory structures, module split patterns, host layouts, secrets organization, overlays, or template-style examples instead of abstract explanation.
Use this skill when the user asks for Nix, Nixpkgs, or NixOS knowledge from local documentation mirrors in this workspace. Start with the high-priority flakes-book branch for practical NixOS and Flakes workflows, then fall back to the official manuals, the NixOS options/module corpus, and the small supplemental wiki navigation branch.
NixOS and Nix flake development for multi-repo architectures, airgapped deployments, and K3s infrastructure. Use when working with flake.nix files, NixOS modules, derivations, devShells, overlays, OCI image packaging, or composing multiple flake repositories. Covers Nix language syntax, flake inputs/outputs, nixosModules exports, stdenv.mkDerivation, and home-manager integration.
Verify whether a NixOS option, Home Manager option, nixpkgs package, module, or attr path actually exists. Use local nix commands and ripgrep instead of guessing.
Minimal tmux runner for one task per session. Use when Codex needs to create an isolated tmux session, send commands into that session's main shell, inspect the session status, or inspect recent output from the main window.
