WorkBuddy Dream Skin
This file is a Codex/agent SKILL card — an entry-point manifest used by Codex-style agents to know what this repo offers and which script to reach for. It is not a general user guide.
Human users: please read README.md and CONTRIBUTING.md.
AI collaborators editing this repo: please read AGENTS.md.
Use the scripts in scripts/ for all operations. Preserve the external injection boundary. Never edit the WorkBuddy installation, app.asar, executables, or signatures.
Workflow
- Read
README.md and confirm Windows, Node.js 22, and WorkBuddy are available.
- For first launch, warn that WorkBuddy will restart, then run
scripts/start-workbuddy-skin.ps1 -RestartExisting.
- Run
scripts/verify-workbuddy-skin.ps1 after every start or theme change.
- Use
scripts/customize-workbuddy-theme.ps1 for image, layered artwork, composition, palette and decoration changes. Imported images use automatic style analysis by default; pass -Style for a deliberate palette, -DecorationMode for ornament behavior, or -AnalyzeOnly to preview the result.
- Use
scripts/manage-workbuddy-themes.ps1 to list or apply saved presets.
- If verification fails, inspect
%LOCALAPPDATA%\WorkBuddyDreamSkin\injector-error.log and run scripts/probe-workbuddy.ps1.
- Use
scripts/restore-workbuddy-skin.ps1 -RestartNormally to return to an ordinary WorkBuddy launch.
Prefer hot reapplication when the verified CDP endpoint already exists. Restart WorkBuddy only when the first CDP enabled launch is required or the user requests it.
