Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a research skill usually looks things up on the internet.

Pre-flight checklist for long-running ML training jobs covering config diff, run naming, path verification, monitoring setup, and restart-cleanup. Use when the user asks to launch, kick off, start, restart, or kill a training run, or mentions launching a multi-hour or multi-day GPU job (python train, accelerate launch, torchrun, deepspeed, sbatch, tmux training).

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'launch' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'launch' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named launch already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/fcakyon/labrat' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '04877622ff124d92d9ee8377109499c0afc6bf01' -- 'plugin/skills/launch' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugin/skills/launch' ~/.agents/skills/'launch' && 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/'launch' ~/.claude/skills/'launch' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
