Source authentic, high-res PUBLIC-DOMAIN artwork from museum open-access APIs (Met, Cleveland, SMK, Rijksmuseum, NGA, Art Institute of Chicago, Getty, Smithsonian) instead of AI-generated or generic-stock imagery. The default move whenever a visual needs an aesthetic, credible image (blog heroes, decks, social cards, essay/spec figures). Verified keyless recipes + licensing rules inside.

Install

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

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'museum-art' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'museum-art' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named museum-art already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/huytieu/COG-second-brain' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '144c7a3a959cc99538b7dfee9c22c4b065a0e156' -- '.claude/skills/museum-art' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'.claude/skills/museum-art' ~/.agents/skills/'museum-art' && 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/'museum-art' ~/.claude/skills/'museum-art' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
