ha-snapshot-restore
90 / 100 · Low risk
Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.
Capture the state of a set of Home Assistant entities (lights, covers, climate, switches) to a named artifact and restore it later via scene.apply. Use to make automation testing reversible — snapshot before a risky change, restore if it misbehaves. Restore of sensitive entities is gated by ha_safety_mode.

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/'ha-snapshot-restore' ~/.claude/skills/'ha-snapshot-restore' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
