| description | Operate SCBE in admin mode through the Issac Command Center, watchdog loops, service launchers, cross-talk relay commands, and verified storage or sync runs. Use when the user asks for always-on agent workflows, command-center automation, repo or system health checks, backup or prune lanes, service bootstrapping, or admin-level orchestration. |
SCBE Admin Autopilot
Use this skill to run SCBE from the local command-center surface instead of inventing one-off shell commands.
Entry Surface
- Start with
issac-help.
- Prefer
hdoctor before assuming the local HYDRA surface is healthy.
- Read
references/issac-command-center.md when you need the exact alias list or grouped command map.
- The aliases live in
scripts/hydra_command_center.ps1; install them with scripts/install_hydra_quick_aliases.ps1 if they are missing.
Core Lanes
- Command Center Health Lane
- Use
hstatus, hqueue, and hdoctor for first-pass health checks.
- Use
hwf, hcanvas, hbranch, and hlattice to prove the major HYDRA surfaces are reachable.
- Research + Swarm Lane
- Use
hresearch, hdeep, hswarm, harxiv, harxiv-ml, harxiv-get, and harxiv-outline for directed research and swarm work.
- Use
hcascade, harticle, or hmission when the user wants a multi-step autonomous run instead of a single query.
- Skill + Memory Lane
- Use
hskills-refresh, hskills, and hstack for repo-local skill synthesis and stack composition.
- Use
hremember, hrecall, and hsearch to persist or retrieve working facts.
- Service + Relay Lane
- Use
scbe-api, scbe-bridge, octo-serve, and htunnel to start the major services and tunnels.
- Use
xtalk-send, xtalk-ack, xtalk-pending, and xtalk-health to keep agent coordination explicit.
- Agent Continuity + Storage Lane
- Keep agents moving with:
scripts/system/watchdog_agent_stack_default.ps1
scripts/system/run_watchdog_loop.ps1
scripts/system/register_agent_stack_tasks.ps1
- Run storage shipping, verification, and optional prune with:
python scripts/system/ship_verify_prune.py --source <path> --dest <backup1> --dest <backup2> --min-verified-copies 2 --delete-source
- Run repo or cloud sync with:
python scripts/system/system_hub_sync.py --help
Safety Gates
- Do not assume the aliases are loaded; verify with
issac-help or run the installer.
- Prefer
hdoctor or hstatus plus hqueue before long autonomous runs.
- Never delete local files unless
--delete-source is explicitly set.
- Require checksum verification and at least 2 verified copies before prune.
- Keep secrets in env vars only. At minimum, check
SCBE_API_KEY before authenticated API work.
- Record ports, artifact paths, and cross-talk packet IDs in the run summary.
Output Contract
Each admin run should emit:
- command evidence or service status output
- artifact paths for storage, workflow, or synthesis outputs
- a cross-talk packet or explicit note that no packet was required
Quick Start
# inspect the operator surface
issac-help
hdoctor
# run a multi-step mission
hmission "stabilize the agent workflow stack"
# boot the main API
