67 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.
By affaan-m/ECC (GitHub) · coding · 300,508 stars · scanned at commit d2ef268
Pi-hole installation, blocklist management, DNS-over-HTTPS setup, DHCP integration, local DNS records, and troubleshooting broken DNS resolution on a home network. Use when the task explicitly involves Pi-hole — installing it, managing blocklists, configuring DoH or DHCP, adding local DNS records, or diagnosing DNS resolution with Pi-hole in the path.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'homelab-pihole-dns' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'homelab-pihole-dns' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named homelab-pihole-dns already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/affaan-m/ECC' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'd2ef2680594f9a17526a6e1a2e18b3d242c5d17b' -- 'skills/homelab-pihole-dns' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/homelab-pihole-dns' ~/.agents/skills/'homelab-pihole-dns' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'homelab-pihole-dns' ~/.claude/skills/'homelab-pihole-dns' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
