Connect the user's VPS (Hostinger, Hetzner, OVH...) to their terminal as `ssh hermes`, finding the server and its SSH keys page in their provider panel through Chrome AI, then tell every agent the VPS exists. Use when the user bought a VPS, wants to connect it, or `ssh hermes` fails.

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/'connect-vps' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'connect-vps' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named connect-vps already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/Melvynx/ai-maxxing-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '86f06848774ae5804176c25ff7fb01195252ae4e' -- 'skills/connect-vps' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/connect-vps' ~/.agents/skills/'connect-vps' && 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/'connect-vps' ~/.claude/skills/'connect-vps' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
