basic-plumbing-troubleshooting

LeoYeAI/openclaw-master-skills

Step-by-step plumbing fixes for common household problems without calling a plumber. Use when someone has a clogged sink or toilet, running toilet, dripping faucet, or minor leak and wants to fix it themselves.

mechanic-quote-decoder

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Read a garage quote or invoice like someone who can't be padded — which line items connect to your actual symptom, which are while-we're-in-there additions, the questions that make soft lines disappear, when a second opinion pays for itself, and the scripts for declining work without souring the relationship. Use when someone says 'is this mechanic quote fair', 'the garage called and now it's £900', 'do I really need all this', or before authorizing repairs. Produces a line-by-line decode, the callback questions, and the authorize/decline/second-opinion sort. Not a diagnosis — it's the interrogation of one.

vehicle-maintenance-schedule

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Build a maintenance schedule for your car so it stays reliable and holds value — the service intervals, the DIY-vs-shop split, and the checks that prevent breakdowns and rip-offs. Use when asked for a car maintenance schedule, what maintenance does my car need, how to keep my car running, or am I being upsold at the mechanic. Produces an interval-based schedule keyed to your vehicle and driving, the essential do-not-skip items, DIY vs professional, seasonal checks, and how to spot unnecessary upsells — flagging that your owner's manual is the authority.

auto-repair-estimate-decoder

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Decode an auto repair estimate — what each line actually is, which items are urgent vs upsell, and the questions that separate a fair shop from a fishing expedition. Use when someone asks 'is this repair quote fair', 'decode my mechanic's estimate', 'do I really need all this', or 'is the shop ripping me off'. Produces a line-by-line decode with urgency triage, parts/labor sanity checks, ranked red flags, and the exact questions to ask the shop before authorizing.

mechanics-installers-supervisor

wonsukchoi/domain-experts

Use when a task needs the judgment of a first-line supervisor over a mixed-skill technician crew — diagnosing whether a comeback pattern is a technician skill gap or a parts-quality problem, reconciling flat-rate efficiency against comeback rate before crediting a "fast" technician, job-costing a warranty or goodwill redo, assigning jobs by ASE certification and job complexity, or verifying lockout/tagout compliance on a multi-technician repair.

microsoft-foundry/build-2026-demos

knowledge-retrieval

microsoft-foundry/build-2026-demos

Handle technical knowledge questions — procedures, safety protocols, troubleshooting, specifications, installation standards, and testing guidance. Use when the technician asks how-to questions, about procedures, safety, cable specs, OTDR testing, splicing techniques, or troubleshooting steps.

work-order-management

microsoft-foundry/build-2026-demos

work-order-preparation

microsoft-foundry/build-2026-demos

Prepare for a work order by fetching the WO details and checking stock availability for all required parts. Use when the technician wants to get ready for a job, check if parts are available for a WO, or asks "what do I need for WO-XXX".
