# Mike Bailey's Skills Marketplace
A Claude Code plugin marketplace with skills to somewhat improve things.
## Installation
### Add Claude Code Marketplace
```
claude plugin marketplace add mbailey/skills
```
### Install a Plugin
```
claude plugin install --scope user show-me@mbailey
```
### Browse and Install Plugins
```
claude /plugin
```
## Available Plugins
| Plugin | Description |
| ------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| [show-me](https://github.com/mbailey/show-me) | Let Claude show you files and web pages (tmux, neovim) |
| [VoiceMode](https://github.com/mbailey/voicemode) | Natrual conversations with Claude Code |
## Security scanning
`scripts/scan_plugin.py` is a deterministic, dependency-free security scanner
for plugin directories. It flags unicode tricks (bidi/zero-width/homoglyphs),
network access, destructive commands, pipe-to-shell, credential-path access,
encoded payloads, privilege escalation, and compiled bytecode.
Run it against a plugin directory (or a `plugins/` parent) with
[`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/):
```
uv run scripts/scan_plugin.py <plugin-dir>
uv run scripts/scan_plugin.py plugins/ # scan every plugin
uv run scripts/scan_plugin.py <dir> --format=markdown
```
Exit codes: `0` clean, `1` usage error, `2` BLOCK findings, `3` WARN only.
CI runs this as a **non-blocking, informational** job (it never gates merges).
The marketplace currently lists external `url`-source plugins with no bundled
plugin directories, so the job self-skips until skills are vendored under
`plugins/`.
The scanner is vendored from
[trailofbits/skills-curated](https://github.com/trailofbits/skills-curated)
(`scripts/scan_plugin.py`) and is licensed under

README (first 3000 chars):
# Fullstack AgentCore Solution Template (FAST)
_Author's note: for the official name for this solution is the "Fullstack Solution Template for Agentcore" but it is referred to throughout this code base as FAST for convenience._
The Fullstack AgentCore Solution Template (FAST) is a starter project repository that enables users (delivery scientists and engineers) to quickly deploy a secured, web-accessible React frontend connected to an AgentCore backend. Its purpose is to accelerate building full stack applications on AgentCore from weeks to days by handling the undifferentiated heavy lifting of infrastructure setup and to enable vibe-coding style development on top. The only central dependency of FAST is AgentCore. It is agnostic to agent SDK (Strands, LangGraph, etc) and to coding assistant platforms (Q, Kiro, Cline, Claude Code, etc).
FAST is designed with security and vibe-codability as primary tenets. Best practices and knowledge from experts are codified in _documentation_ in this repository rather than in _code_. By including this documentation in an AI coding assistant's context, or by instructing the AI coding assistant to leverage best practices and code snippets found in the documentation, delivery scientists and developers can quickly vibe-build AgentCore applications for any use case. AI coding assistants can be used to fully customize the frontend and the infrastructure, enabling scientists to focus the areas where their knowledge is most impactful: the actual prompt engineering and GenAI implementation details.
With FAST as a starting point and development framework, delivery scientists and engineers will accelerate their development process and deliver production quality AgentCore code following architecture and security best practices without having to learn any frontend or infrastructure code.
## FAST Baseline System
FAST comes deployable out-of-the-box with a fully functioning, full-stack application. This application represents starts as a basic multi-turn chat agent where the backend agent has access to tools. **Do not let this deter you, even if your use case is entirely different! If your application requires AgentCore, customizing FAST to any use case is extremely straightforward. That is the intended use of FAST!**
The application is intentionally kept very, very simple to allow developers to easily build up whatever they want on top of the baseline. The tools shipped out of the box include:
1. **Gateway Tools** - Lambda-based tools behind AgentCore Gateway with authentication:
- Text analysis tool (counts words and letter frequency)
2. **Code Interpreter** - Direct integration with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Code Interpreter:
- Secure Python code execution in isolated sandbox
- Session management with state persistence

# Advanced Solutions Lab
## Overview
This repository contains AI and Machine Learning contents meant to be run on Google Cloud. This is maintained by Google Cloud’s [Advanced Solutions Lab (ASL)](https://cloud.google.com/asl) team.
This repository contains 3 main modules to covers various AI/ML toipcs:
- `asl_core`: A wide range of model architectures (DNN, CNN, RNN, transformers, SNGP, etc.) targeting many data modalities (tabular, image, text, time-series) implemented mainly in Tensorflow and Keras.
- `asl_mlops`: Tools on Google Cloud’s Vertex AI for operationalizing Tensorflow, Scikit-learn and PyTorch models at scale (e.g. Vertex training, tuning, and serving, TFX and Kubeflow pipelines).
- `asl_genai`: Generative AI and Agent System using Gemini and Agentic Frameworks like Google ADK.
## Repository Structure
Each module (`asl_core`, `asl_mlops`, `asl_genai`) has separate environment and materials, which are organized in each directory.
All learning materials are in the contets folder. This folder is organized by different topics. Each folder contains a `labs` and a `solutions` folder. Use the `labs` notebooks to test your coding skills by filling in TODOs and refer to the notebooks in the `solutions` folder to verify your code.
We have three main folders described below:
```
├── asl_core
│ ├── notebooks - contains learning materials organized by topic
│ │ ├── building_production_ml_systems
│ │ │ ├── labs
│ │ │ └── solutions
│ │ ├── end-to-end-structured
│ │ ├── image_models
│ │ ├── ...
│ ├── kernels - contains kernel scripts needed for certain notebooks
│ ├── scaffolds - contains sample code to accelerate AI/ML projects
│ ├── requirements.txt - dependencies for this module
├── asl_mlops
│ ├── ...
├── asl_genai
│ ├── ...
├── ...
```
## Environment Setup
### Step 1. Run the Setup Script on Cloud Shell
This repository is tested on Vertex AI Workbench and Cloud Workstations. To begin, run the setup script in [Cloud Shell](https://shell.cloud.google.com) to configure essential project infrastructure (APIs, IAM, Buckets).
Run the setup script in [Cloud Shell](https://shell.cloud.google.com) to provision your environment.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/asl-ml-immersion.git
cd asl-ml-immersion
bash scripts/setup_env.sh
```
You will be prompted to select the environment to set up:
* **1) Vertex AI Workbench:** Setup Vertex AI Workbench.
* **2) Cloud Workstations:** Setup Cloud Workstations.
* **3) Setup both:** Setup both environments.
* **4) Skip:** Setup project infrastructure (APIs, IAM, Buckets) only.
By selecting the option 1-3, you can automatically setup the environment,

## About
_Cleye_ makes it very easy to develop command-line scripts in Node.js. It handles argv parsing to give you strongly typed parameters + flags and generates `--help` documentation based on the provided information.
Here's an example script that simply logs: `Good morning/evening <name>!`:
_greet.js:_
```ts
import { cli } from 'cleye'
// Parse argv
const argv = cli({
name: 'greet.js',
// Define parameters
parameters: [
'<first name>', // First name is required
'[last name]' // Last name is optional
],
// Define flags/options
flags: {
// Parses `--time` as a string
time: {
type: String,
description: 'Time of day to greet (morning or evening)',
default: 'morning'
}
}
})
const name = [argv._.firstName, argv._.lastName].filter(Boolean).join(' ')
if (argv.flags.time === 'morning') {
console.log(`Good morning ${name}!`)
} else {
console.log(`Good evening ${name}!`)
}
```
🛠 In development, type hints are provided on parsed flags and parameters:
<p align="center">
<br>
<img src=".github/typed-flags.png" width="600">
<br>
<i>Type hints for Cleye's output are very verbose and readable</i>
<br>
<br>
</p>
📖 Generated help documentation can be viewed with the `--help` flag:
```sh
$ node greet.js --help
greet.js
Usage:
greet.js [flags...] <first name> [last name]
Flags:
-h, --help Show help
--time <string> Time of day to greet (morning or evening) (default: "morning")
```
✅ Run the scrip

# Symphony
Symphony turns project work into isolated, autonomous implementation runs, allowing teams to manage
work instead of supervising coding agents.
[](.github/media/symphony-demo.mp4)
_In this [demo video](.github/media/symphony-demo.mp4), Symphony monitors a Linear board for work and spawns agents to handle the tasks. The agents complete the tasks and provide proof of work: CI status, PR review feedback, complexity analysis, and walkthrough videos. When accepted, the agents land the PR safely. Engineers do not need to supervise Codex; they can manage the work at a higher level._
> [!WARNING]
> Symphony is a low-key engineering preview for testing in trusted environments.
## Running Symphony
### Requirements
Symphony works best in codebases that have adopted
[harness engineering](https://openai.com/index/harness-engineering/). Symphony is the next step --
moving from managing coding agents to managing work that needs to get done.
### Option 1. Make your own
Tell your favorite coding agent to build Symphony in a programming language of your choice:
> Implement Symphony according to the following spec:
> https://github.com/openai/symphony/blob/main/SPEC.md
### Option 2. Use our experimental reference implementation
Check out [elixir/README.md](elixir/README.md) for instructions on how to set up your environment
and run the Elixir-based Symphony implementation. You can also ask your favorite coding agent to
help with the setup:
> Set up Symphony for my repository based on
> https://github.com/openai/symphony/blob/main/elixir/README.md

# NVIDIA Biomedical AI-Q Research Agent Developer Blueprint
## Overview
The NVIDIA [Biomedical AI-Q Research Agent Developer Blueprint](https://build.nvidia.com/nvidia/biomedical-aiq-research-agent) allows you to create a deep research agent with virtual screening capabilities that can run on-premise, allowing anyone to create detailed research reports using on-premise data and web search. This developer blueprint is built on top of the [AI-Q NVIDIA Research Assistant Blueprint](https://build.nvidia.com/nvidia/aiq). We have added capabilities from the [Virtual Screening Blueprint](https://build.nvidia.com/nvidia/generative-virtual-screening-for-drug-discovery) in addition to the research capability, so that when a biomedical researcher is investigating a condition or disease, with a target protein and recent small-molecule therapy, virtual screening can help with discovering novel small-molecule therapies through guided molecular generation and docking. This developer blueprint serves as a demonstration on how you could add in your own custom functionalities that may not be virtual screening, to the existing research and report generation functionalities in the foundational [AI-Q NVIDIA Research Assistant Blueprint](https://build.nvidia.com/nvidia/aiq).

## Key Features
- **Deep Research**: Given a report topic and desired report structure, an agent (1) creates a report plan, (2) searches data sources for answers, (3) writes a report, (4) reflects on gaps in the report for further queries, (5) finishes a report with a list of sources.
- **Parallel Search**: During the research phase, multiple research questions are searched in parallel. For each query, the RAG service is consulted and an LLM-as-a-judge is used to check the relevancy of the results. If more information is needed, a fallback web search is performed. This search approach ensures internal documents are given preference over generic web results while maintaining accuracy. Performing query search in parallel allows for many data sources to be consulted in an efficient manner.
- **Human-in-the-loop**: Human feedback on the report plan, interactive report edits, and Q&A with the final report.
- **Data Sources**: Integration with the NVIDIA RAG blueprint to search multimodal documents with text, charts, and tables. For a full list of file formats supported such as `pdf`, `pptx`, `docx`, `jpeg

Description: An agentic skills framework & software development methodology that works.
README (first 3000 chars):
# Superpowers
Superpowers is a complete software development methodology for your coding agents, built on top of a set of composable skills and some initial instructions that make sure your agent uses them.
## Quickstart
Give your agent Superpowers: [Claude Code](#claude-code), [Codex CLI](#codex-cli), [Codex App](#codex-app), [Factory Droid](#factory-droid), [Gemini CLI](#gemini-cli), [OpenCode](#opencode), [Cursor](#cursor), [GitHub Copilot CLI](#github-copilot-cli).
## How it works
It starts from the moment you fire up your coding agent. As soon as it sees that you're building something, it *doesn't* just jump into trying to write code. Instead, it steps back and asks you what you're really trying to do.
Once it's teased a spec out of the conversation, it shows it to you in chunks short enough to actually read and digest.
After you've signed off on the design, your agent puts together an implementation plan that's clear enough for an enthusiastic junior engineer with poor taste, no judgement, no project context, and an aversion to testing to follow. It emphasizes true red/green TDD, YAGNI (You Aren't Gonna Need It), and DRY.
Next up, once you say "go", it launches a *subagent-driven-development* process, having agents work through each engineering task, inspecting and reviewing their work, and continuing forward. It's not uncommon for Claude to be able to work autonomously for a couple hours at a time without deviating from the plan you put together.
There's a bunch more to it, but that's the core of the system. And because the skills trigger automatically, you don't need to do anything special. Your coding agent just has Superpowers.
## Sponsorship
If Superpowers has helped you do stuff that makes money and you are so inclined, I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd consider [sponsoring my opensource work](https://github.com/sponsors/obra).
Thanks!

Description: Like gmail for your coding agents. Lets various different agents communicate and coordinate with each other.
README (first 3000 chars):
# MCP Agent Mail

> "It's like gmail for your coding agents!"
A mail-like coordination layer for coding agents, exposed as an HTTP-only FastMCP server. It gives agents memorable identities, an inbox/outbox, searchable message history, and voluntary file reservation "leases" to avoid stepping on each other.
Think of it as asynchronous email + directory + change-intent signaling for your agents, backed by Git (for human-auditable artifacts) and SQLite (for indexing and queries).
Status: Under active development. The design is captured in detail in `project_idea_and_guide.md` (start with the original prompt at the top of that file).
## Why this exists
Modern projects often run multiple coding agents at once (backend, frontend, scripts, infra). Without a shared coordination fabric, agents:
- Overwrite each other's edits or panic on unexpected diffs
- Miss critical context from parallel workstreams
- Require humans to "liaison" messages across tools and teams
This project provides a lightweight, interoperable layer so agents can:
- Register a temporary-but-persistent identity (e.g., GreenCastle)
- Send/receive GitHub-Flavored Markdown messages with images
- Search, summarize, and thread conversations
- Declare advisory file reservations (leases) on files/globs to signal intent
- Inspect a directory of active agents, programs/models, and activity
It's designed for: FastMCP clients and CLI tools (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, etc.) coordinating across one or more codebases.
## From Idea Spark to Shipping Swarm
If a blank repo feels daunting, follow the field-tested workflow we documented in `project_idea_and_guide.md` (“Appendix: From Blank Repo to Coordinated Swarm”):
- **Ideate fast:** Write a scrappy email-style blurb about the problem, desired UX, and any must-have stack picks (≈15 minutes).
- **Promote it to a plan:** Feed that blurb to GPT-5 Pro (and optionally Grok4 Heavy / Opus 4.1) until you get a granular Markdown plan, then iterate on the plan file while it’s still cheap to change. The Markdown Web Browser sample plan shows the level of detail to aim for.
- **Codify the rules:** Clone a tuned `AGENTS.md`, add any tech-specific best-practice guides, and let Codex scaffold the repo plus Beads tasks straight from the plan.
- **Spin up the swarm:** Launch multiple Codex panes (or any agent mix), register each identity with Agent Mail, and have them acknowledge `AGENTS.md`, the plan document, and the Beads backlog before touching code.
- **Keep everyone fed:** Reuse the canned instruction cadence from the tweet thread or, better yet, let the commercial Companion app’s Message Stacks broadcast those prompts automatically so you never hand-feed panes again.

[USER]
is this helpful at all for me if its just code?
[ASSISTANT]
**Honest answer: no, not really.**
Here's why it's a dud for you specifically:
- **Stack mismatch**: it's plumbing for Vite SPAs. Next.js gives you all of it natively (`generateMetadata`, route handlers for sitemap.xml, JSON-LD in layout). You'd be installing crutches you don't need.
- **You already have it**: `technical-seo-agent`, `schema-generator`, `schema-spider`, `auto-schema-from-template`, `core-web-vitals`, `einstein` agent. They cover meta tags, OG, canonical, sitemap, robots, JSON-LD, CWV.
- **Doesn't write content**: zero overlap with your real moneymakers — `seo-article-writer`, `merlino-magic-blog`, `paa-content-writer`, `lowfruit-article-writer`, `thanos-optimizer`.
- **No SEO strategy**: no keyword research, no intent analysis, no PAA mining, no SERP analysis, no E-E-A-T, no entity SEO, no local SEO. That's your entire business and it's missing.
**The one thing worth lifting**: the hardened IndexNow Edge Function pattern (verifyJwt + host validation). That's a ~60-line snippet, not a skill install. I can drop it as a Next.js route handler into any project in 5 minutes if you ever want instant Bing/Yandex indexing on content drops.
**Verdict**: ignore the skill. Sticklight is a Vite/Bolt-clone builder pitching skills to its own users. You're not their target.

- Canonical: `D:/Ecosystem/vaults/feedly-api-docs/` — 81 md files
- Legacy: `E:/Merlino Vault/Resources/SOP-Sites/feedly-api-docs/` — 81 md files
### Memory ingestion
- Master Brain: scope `sop:feedly-api-sop`, 509 chunks (text-embedding-3-small)
- merlino-sops MCP: 22nd category `feedly` (agent: Raven), tsc passes
- sop-sites-registry.json: appended (4 sites total)
- Memz/Mem0/Hindsight: fanned out via agent-memory.py
### Build notes
- **Firecrawl out of credits** → pivoted to Readme.io `llms.txt` URL inventory + direct curl (Readme.io serves clean `.md` per page)
- **Bug caught + fixed:** `echo $KEY | vercel env add` adds trailing `\n` → OpenAI SDK threw "Connection error" via `TypeError: ... not a legal HTTP header value`. Switched to `printf "%s"`. Saved as feedback memory for future SOP builds.
- Increased function timeout to 60s (Responses API + file_search runs ~10-13s)
- Enabled `cleanUrls: true`
### Restart required
Restart Claude Code so the merlino-sops MCP picks up the new `feedly` category. Test query: ask any session about Feedly Ask AI endpoints and confirm scope `sop:feedly-api-sop` returns hits.
**VERIFICATION:** FULL (production smoke-tested home + reference + RAG chat with 2 queries, citations returned)
**VAULT:** 81 files copied to both D and E vault paths
**MEMORY:** scope=sop:feedly-api-sop chunks=509 memz=ok mcp-category-added=yes registry-updated=yes restart-required=yes

ok yes but u watn to see a tet ouput of tha tactually seo artucle which is the real point
[ASSISTANT]
Honest take: **don't fragment your stack just to have variety**. Variety has a real cost for you specifically.
**What ShipFast uses (Marc Lou's stack):**
- Next.js (App Router) + TypeScript
- Tailwind + **DaisyUI** (not ShadCN)
- MongoDB or Supabase (two versions sold)
- NextAuth (Google + Magic Link)
- Stripe + Lemon Squeezy
- Resend for email
- Vercel hosting
So ShipFast is basically your stack minus ShadCN, plus DaisyUI. Marc bet on Next.js for the same reason you should: SEO out of the box.
**Why Vite + React is a downgrade for YOU specifically:**
- Your entire business is local SEO. SPAs make SEO harder, which is exactly why that Sticklight skill needs 14 sections of `@unhead/react`, `data-hid` fallbacks, static sitemap hacks. Next.js gives you all of that natively with `generateMetadata()` and route handlers.
- You'd lose Server Components, ISR, native sitemap routes, and the Vercel/Next pairing.
- You'd fork your skill ecosystem (488 skills tuned for Next.js patterns).
**When Vite IS the right call (legit secondary stack):**
- Browser extensions (Chrome/Edge)
- Embedded widgets you drop into client sites
- Tauri/Electron desktop apps (HawkeyePanel desktop version?)
- Pure internal tools behind auth where dev speed > SSR
- Learning/prototyping new React libs fast
**Recommendation:** Keep Next.js as your one primary stack. Add Vite **only** when you build a Chrome extension or a Tauri desktop wrapper. Don't run two stacks in parallel for SEO-facing work, you'll dilute your template library and CLI tooling.
Want me to build that hardened IndexNow piece as a Next.js route handler so it slots into any of your current Vercel projects?

how many pages is this? does it cover everything? do they have API or MCP? nothing shows in the chat or stie - t seems that the documentation files you uploaded do not contain information about using the API in Divi. However, I can provide a general overview of how to use APIs in Divi.
### Using the JavaScript API in Divi
1. Initialization: To use the Divi JavaScript API, ensure that your custom scripts are loading after the Divi scripts. You can do this by enqueueing your script correctly in WordPress.
``php
function my_custom_script_enqueue() {
wp_enqueue_script( 'my-custom-script', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/my-custom-script.js', array('jquery'), null, true );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_custom_script_enqueue' );
`
2. Accessing the API: The Divi JavaScript API is available globally. You can access it via the et object. For example, to trigger a modal in Divi:
`javascript
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
et.modules.modal.open('my-modal-id');
});
`
3. Handling events: The API allows you to hook into various events. You can listen for changes or actions and respond accordingly.
`javascript
et.modules.form.on('submit', function(event) {
// Handle form submission
});
``
4. Extending functionality: You can extend or customize Divi's existing modules by writing your own JavaScript functions that leverage the API capabilities.
If you need more specific details or functionality examples, please let me know!

All shipped. Final delivery report:
```
DELIVERED: VitePress SOP site for Divi Developer Documentation, 25 pages
with RAG chat grounded on every page.
PROOF:

- RAG chat: Vector store vs_6a0affbb09148191a6826d1159f0c8a2 (22 files uploaded)
Live test: "How do I register a custom module..." returned correct
File Search answer with citation to extension-build-pipeline.md
- Pages live: home, sops/, modules/, hooks/, code-reference/, workflows/,

VERIFICATION: FULL
- lint/build: VitePress build complete in 5.14s (no errors)
- routing: Vercel cleanUrls=true verified across 10 content pages
- api: /api/chat returns 200 with valid response + file citations
- content: spot-checked 5 pages with real body text, code blocks, tables
- links: zero external http links in any .md (grep verified)
VAULT: 25 files copied to D:/Ecosystem/vaults/elegant-themes-developers-docs/
MEMORY: scope=sop:elegant-themes-developers-docs chunks=77

mcp-category-added=yes (divi, 20th category)
registry-updated=yes (D:/Ecosystem/sop-sites-registry.json)
restart-required=yes
```
**Sources used:** Firecrawl ran out of credits after the 1-page landing crawl, so I fell back to direct curl + the public WP REST endpoint (`/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?categories=22`) which returned all 15 child posts with full rendered HTML. Converted via markdownify, stripped all outbound links per SOP rule.
**Two bugs caught and fixed in-flight:**
1. OpenAI Node SDK threw `Connection error` on Vercel — swapped to raw `fetch` against `api.openai.com/v1/responses` (matches the documented `reference_openai-sdk-vercel-bug` memory).
2. VitePress emits `.html` files but Vercel needed `cleanUrls: true` to serve `/foo` from `/foo.html`.
**Next:** restart Claude Code so the `merlino-sops` MCP picks up the new `divi` category, then test a query like *"What are the required parameters in get_fields() for a Divi module?"* against that scope.

Real talk on timing:
**Current pace:** ~11 GB copied in ~22 min = ~30 GB/hr
**Sizes left to copy (estimates, exact still computing):**
- Merlino Vault: ~30-50 GB remaining (about 25% done at 11 GB)
- Master-Vault-Backup: 5-15 GB
- Master-Vault-RAG-Archive: 50-100 GB (RAG archives are heavy)
- **Master-Vault-Media-Archive: unknown, likely 100-300 GB** (the wildcard — could double the total)
- SEO ROCKSTARS: unknown
**Honest range:**
- **Best case (no media archive bloat): 4-6 hours**
- **Realistic: 8-12 hours**
- **Worst case (huge media): 15-20 hours**
Your own memory just flagged: *"Long-running agents (12+ hours) are unreliable and should be short-lived and task-focused."* That tracks. If Master-Vault-Media-Archive turns out to be 200+ GB, the current pattern is risky.
**Options to speed up / de-risk:**
1. **Skip Master-Vault-Media-Archive** (only one with images/video, biggest unknown) — likely cuts total by 50-70%
2. **Filter to .md/.txt/.json only** on all remaining vaults — drops media bloat, finishes in 1-3 hours
3. **Let it run as-is** — accept the 8-12 hour estimate, robocopy is resilient and the dest is being verified per-file

can adjut to work with my set uo but i am NOT lcoked into my tech stack ata ll why dont I use reacht? and vite? I should have more than one tech stack so I want to use both and what does shipfast use
[ASSISTANT]
Quick take:
- **What it is**: Sticklight is a skill marketplace tied to their own Vite SPA builder. The skill is decent but stack-locked to **React + Vite + @unhead/react + Supabase Edge Functions**. Doesn't map to your Next.js stack since the App Router has built-in `metadata` / `generateMetadata` and dynamic sitemap routes natively.
- **What's actually worth lifting**: the **IndexNow Edge Function** pattern with `verifyJwt: true` + strict host validation. That's the one piece that's genuinely good and stack-agnostic. Open-relay protection on IndexNow is rarely documented this cleanly. Could fold it into your `technical-seo-agent` or `schema-generator` skill as a Next.js route handler version.
- **Skip the rest**: `@unhead/react`, `useSEO` hook, static `data-hid` fallbacks, manual sitemap.xml — all redundant for Next.js. Your existing skills (einstein, technical-seo-agent, schema-spider, auto-schema-from-template, llm-mentions) already cover semantic HTML, schema, sitemaps, robots, OG tags, Core Web Vitals.
Want me to spin out a small `indexnow-integration` skill that wraps the hardened pattern as a Next.js Route Handler (instead of Supabase Edge Function), so it drops into any of your Vercel projects?

Channel: Nate Herk AI Automation
Video title: The AI Career Opportunity Nobody is Talking About in 2026
TRANSCRIPT (first 6000 chars):
So, right now, it feels like everyone
trying to get into AI is kind of hearing
this one shiny path, which is to start
an AI automation agency. And that's the
current trend, and I get it because I
did that, and a lot of the top creators
in this space are teaching content and
building offers around that business
model. And I'm not saying that that
isn't a viable business model, but
today, I want to talk about something
else that is more realistic for, I
think, the majority of people. And if
you don't know who I am, my name is
Nate. I've been deep in the AI game for
a while now. I run a free community of
over 350,000 people, and I scaled my AI
agency to over $100,000 a month and then
sold it. So, the reason that I mention
all that is because I've worked with
businesses, and I've seen the problems
that they're trying to solve, and I've
also seen a ton of my students go
through all the phases of scaling their
own AI automation agency, and I spent a
lot of my free time just thinking about
where the space is headed. And what
really got me thinking about this was
IBM. They surveyed 2,000 CEOs from some
pretty massive companies. So, what I
want to talk about in this video is a
huge opportunity that nobody on AI
YouTube is really talking about. And
it's a move that fits people who don't
want to run sales calls all day, and
what every business is actually hiring
and promoting for in 2026. So, if you've
ever sat there thinking, "I need to get
involved with AI. You know, I can't miss
this boat, but I don't know what do I
actually do?" then this video is for
you, and hopefully by the end, you have
some clarity, and you feel excited about
this crazy time that we're currently
living in. And by the way, in this
video, I'm going to be briefly going
over some stats from the study. I'm
going to be talking about the two paths.
I'm going to be talking about what
actually matters for you to be
successful. So, there are timestamps
down below. Feel free to jump around to
whatever you find interesting. All
right, so let's start with the first
stat that blew my mind. So, this study
surveyed 2,000 CEOs from large publicly
traded companies with a median annual
revenue of about $5.8 billion. So, we're
talking big, established companies he

Video title: The Fastest Way to Set Up OpenClaw (Step by Step)
TRANSCRIPT (first 6000 chars):
- Hey, I'm Dan,
and in this tutorial I'll show you
the fastest way to set up OpenClaw.
I'll go step by step so
that you don't get stuck,
and by the end of this video,
you'll have your own AI
assistant running 24/7,
you'll be able to message it from anywhere
and you can even give it skills.
To do this in the fastest way possible,
we'll use Hostinger's OpenClaw plan.
There's little setup,
everything is ready out of the box,
and you can get straight
to using OpenClaw.
So without wasting any
time, step one is to sign up
for a Hostinger OpenClaw plan.
To make sure to get the best deal,
sign up using our exclusive partner link
in the description down below.
That will get you an additional
10% off any Hostinger plan.
And after clicking that link,
you'll join me here on the OpenClaw page.
Click Get Started to
see your plan options.
You'll see two plans: Managed OpenClaw
and OpenClaw on VPS.
For the fastest setup,
we're going with Managed OpenClaw.
It's ready out of the box
with no technical setup
so you can skip straight
to using your assistant.
OpenClaw on VPS is the
more hands-on option
if you want full control over the server,
but if speed is what you're after,
managed is the fastest way to get going.
So go ahead and click Choose
Plan under Managed OpenClaw.
On the next page, you'll
pick your billing period.
It defaults to 24 months,
and that gives you the biggest savings
so you can keep it there.
If you'd rather pay less upfront,
the 12 month plan still
saves you a good amount.
Just below that, you'll
see Ready-to-use AI.
If you have no interest in
these credits, don't worry,
you don't have to add these.
If you already know that
you want to use Open AI
or Anthropic, I'll show you
how to set that up in the next section.
But if you're just getting started,
the Nexos.ai credits are the fastest way
to get your assistant running.
You don't need to create
any extra accounts
or generate any API keys,
and you can switch between AI
models like ChatGPT, Claude,
and Gemini whenever you
want, all from one place.
I'll add 20 credits to start,
and I'll show you just how fast it is
to get going on the
configuration screen in a minute.
Below that, you'll see
options for Instant Web Search
and Agentic Mail.
I'll add Instant Web Search
because there

Video title: Claude + Hermes Agent OS Changes Everything!
TRANSCRIPT (first 6000 chars):
Claude plus Hermes agent OS changes
everything. Today I'm going to show you
how I'm using Claude and Hermes agent OS
to rank number one on Google. This is
new. This is huge. And it's so easy that
if you can type a keyword into a box,
you can do this, too. No coding, tech
skills, just plug in a keyword and watch
your SEO content get written and
published while you sip your coffee.
Stick around because at the end I'll
show you the one trick most people miss
that makes this rank faster than
anything else. Let's get into it. Most
people doing SEO are still stuck. They
use one tool over here, another tool
over there. They write content by hand,
publish by hand. It takes forever. And
here's the kicker, most of that content
never ranks on Google.
That's why Hermes agent OS is a
game-changer. You give it a keyword, it
does the research, it writes the
article, it pushes it live to your
website. You're doing something else.
I've taken sites from basically zero
clicks to hundreds, even thousands of
clicks a month using this exact process.
So, what is an agent OS? Think of it
like this. You've probably seen AI
agents before. They're scattered all
over the place. Tab for Claude, another
tab for open claw, another for Hermes.
It's messy. You're flipping back and
forth. Stuff gets lost. Agent OS pulls
all of them into one home, one
dashboard, one place to control every
agent. And here's the wild part, built
this whole thing in about an hour. Don't
code. Just open Claude desktop and told
it what I wanted. Claude built it for
me. I said, "Create a beautiful mission
control system that connects Claude,
open claw, and Hermes." Claude asked me
a few questions. "How should the
dashboard talk to my agents? What stack
should it use?" Told it to pick the best
one. Boom, built the whole thing. Now,
inside this agent OS I've got Claude on
one side, I've got open claw ready to
go, I've got Hermes running. I can see
all my agents in one place. I can see
which models they're using. I can set
goals, like rank number one on Google
for AI SEO. I can tick those goals off
when they're done. Claude can even tick
them off for me. Here's where it gets
crazy. This whole system is wired into
my memory, all my notes, all my
projects, everything I know about my
busine
[ASSISTANT]

Video title: NotebookLM + Google AI Studio is INSANE!
TRANSCRIPT (first 6000 chars):
Notebook LM plus Google AI Studio is
insane and today I'm going to show you a
three prompt SEO workflow that uses both
of these free Google tools to rank
higher on Google than ever before.
Talking about doing a full week of
keyword research in under 10 minutes.
Building a landing page that ranks with
one single prompt. Pulling viral content
ideas out of thin air. And it's so easy
a kid could do it. This is brand new,
it's totally free, and it might be the
biggest SEO shortcut of the year. Stick
around because the third prompt I show
you flat out feels illegal. All right,
let's get into it. First, what is
Notebook LM? Plain English, it's a free
Google tool that takes your stuff, PDFs,
blog posts, YouTube links, notes,
whatever, and turns it into a smart AI
you can chat with. The keyword there is
your stuff. Normal AI tools guess from
the whole internet. Notebook LM only
answers from the sources you give it.
That means for SEO, the answers are
real, grounded, and you can actually
trust them. Here's the second tool,
Google AI Studio. So free, so from
Google. This one is the builder. You
type a prompt and it builds you working
stuff. Landing pages, web apps,
interactive sections. Whatever you
describe, it makes. It's powered by
Gemini, which is Google's smartest
model, and the wild part is you don't
need to know how to code. You just
describe what you want and it ships. So
now you see where this is going.
Notebook LM is the brain. Google AI
Studio is the hands. Together they do
the whole SEO job. Research, strategy,
content, landing pages, all of it. And
here's the best part, you only need
three prompts. That's it. Three prompts
and the whole workflow is done. Let me
walk you through each one using a real
example, the AI Profit Boardroom, which
is our AI automation community. Stay
with me because prompt three is where it
gets crazy. Prompt one, this one runs
inside Notebook LM. You open up a new
notebook and before you upload a single
thing, you give it this exact prompt.

AI automation communities, AI Profit
Boardroom style memberships, AI
automation for small business, AI
workflow training programs, AI for
entrepreneurs, AI mastermind groups, and

Video title: Hermes V0.14 is INSANE!
TRANSCRIPT (first 6000 chars):
Hermes Agent just dropped version 0.14
and this is the biggest free update
they've ever shipped. Your AI agent is
about to get dramatically faster,
smarter, and more powerful, completely
for free. We're talking browser control
that's 180 times faster than before.
Computer use now works with every major
AI model and a oneline install that
means anyone, and I mean anyone can get
Hermes running today in one click. Plus,
here's the part that I really want to
show you. There's a new way to stack
Hermes with Grock 4.3 that turns it into
a full AI media studio. Images, videos,
real-time Twitter search, all inside one
system, all free. I'm going to show you
the exact system I built with it step by
step. Plus, there's one feature in this
update that most people completely
sleeping on, and it changes the way your
agent handles memory. And once you see
it, you'll never go back to running AI
the old way. So stick with me until the
end because by the time we're done,
you're going to have the most powerful
version of Hermes you've ever run and a
full system around it that works for you
24/7. Let's get into it. Hermes Agent
v0.14
just dropped. This is a brand new free
update to Hermes Agent. You can see I'm
on version 0.14
right here. And this is a brand new
update from Hermes that's been released.
and I'm going to walk you through
exactly what it means, how to use it,
how to get it, etc. Now, if you want to
know how to update your Hermes agent,
all you do is you go into your terminal
like this and you type in Hermes update
and it's pretty straightforward. You can
update from there. It will pull in the
latest updates and that's how you get
the new release. You can also go inside
Hermes chat and just ask it to install
it from there, right? But the terminal
command is by far the easiest and
fastest way to do this. So, what does
this mean for you? How does it work,
etc. Let me walk you through everything
that it means, what's dropped, what's
new, etc. So if you go into Hermes
agent, these are the new changes. So the
first one, the big feature is that you
can install Hermes with one line, right?
So before 0.14, you have to repository
run shield scripts dependencies a lot of
work for someone non technical. Now you
don't need to use agent. So all you do
is you type get

Video title: Hermes Agent OS is INSANE! 🤯
TRANSCRIPT (first 6000 chars):
Hermes Agent OS is the most powerful
automation agent system available right
now. Today I'm going to show you exactly
how to use it to automate your entire
business. I'm going to show you how to
automate videos, content, SEO research,
and a whole lot more all from one single
system. And I'll show you the exact
workflows I use every day to make this
agent 10 times more powerful. But here's
the thing, there's one part of the setup
I want to show you later that almost
nobody is doing. And when you see it,
everything changes. Your agent gets
smarter. It knows who you are. It knows
what you do. And it just gets better and
better the more you use it. So stick
with me all the way to the end because
that one thing makes all the difference.
Let's get into it. I'm going to answer
some of the questions on Hermes Agent
OS, how to set up, what you can do with
it, etc. So one of the first questions
we had from the community here, from
Craig, is how to do video editing with
videos using something like Hermes,
right? So how would I do that? How would
I approach it, etc. So there's a really
good skill for video editing. It's
called Hyperframes inside Hermes Agent.
So you can set up Hyperframes with
Hermes Agent. What does that look like?
Here's an example of what it looks like.
And if you want to use it for video and
stuff like that, you give the skill
setup to Hermes Agent, and then it can
use it, right? So let's say for example
you wanted to edit a video quickly. What
we can actually do here is we can, for
example, go into Hermes, which you can
see over here. And we could say, "Okay,
edit this video with Hyperframes."
And so let's say for example we've got a
video over here that we need to edit,
right? So what we can do here is we can
grab that, get the file path, go back
into Hermes,
and say, "Edit this with Hyperframes."
Chad says, "Could Hermes help me set up
and install this dashboard?" Yeah,
absolutely. So this dashboard that we
have set up here for Agent OS, you can
actually grab the prompts that we used
to build it inside the Alpha Body, as
you can see right here. And you can also
grab the zip file. So we have an
attached zip file inside the community
here, and you can just upload that, give
it to Hermes and say, "Hey, go off and
install this for me,

Video title: These Claude Updates Change Everything! 🤯
TRANSCRIPT (first 6000 chars):
These Claude updates change everything.
On May 11th, 2026, Anthropic dropped
something called Agent View inside
Claude code. And honestly, it's a way
bigger deal than most people are saying.
Because for the first time, you can run
a dozen Claude agents at the same time
in one screen and watch them all work
for you. Think about that. 12 Claude
sessions going at once, doing different
jobs. And you just sit there and check
in when one of them needs you. That's
not a small update. That's a whole new
way of using Claude. And there's more.
They also shipped a new command called
goal. You type one sentence. Claude
keeps going until the job is actually
done. Writes, checks its own work, fixes
its mistakes. And then a second Claude
looks over the first one's work to make
sure it's right before it tells you it's
finished. Want to walk you through every
piece of this, what it is, why it
matters, and how regular people, not
just coders, can use it to grow a
business right now. Stick with me,
because by the end, you're going to see
Claude in a totally different way.
Hey, if we haven't met already, I'm the
digital avatar of Julian Goldie, CEO of
SEO agency Goldie Agency. Whilst he's
helping clients get more leads and
customers, I'm here to help you get the
latest AI updates. And Julian Goldie
reads every comment, so make sure you
comment below.
Let's start with Agent View. This is the
one everyone is talking about. Before
this update, if you wanted to run more
than one Claude session at the same
time, you had a mess. People were
opening five terminal tabs, were running
T-Mux, which is a tool that splits your
screen into little boxes. Agent View
fixes all of that. You type one command,
Claude agents, and you get one clean
list. Every Claude session you have
running shows up as a row. Each row
tells you the status. Is it working? Is
it waiting for your input? Is it done?
Did it fail? You can see all of it in
one place. You can also send a Claude to
the background with a slash BG command.
So, you start a task, say go do that,
and it goes off and works while you do
something else. When it needs you, it
pings you. When it's done, you check it.
Anthropic's own words on this were
simple. He said it's one list of all
your sessions. But what that really
[ASSISTANT]

Video title: These NEW Codex Update are INSANE! 🤯
TRANSCRIPT (first 6000 chars):
These new Codex updates are insane. Open
AI just made Codex work without you.
Your phone is now the remote control.
Your laptop keeps coding. You walk away.
The work keeps going. This dropped on
May 14th, 2 days ago, and it's already
changing how people think about AI. Let
me break it down so anyone can follow.
Codex is Open AI's AI coding agent.
Think of it like a robot helper that
writes software, fixes bugs, runs tests,
and ships work. Until this week, you had
to sit at your computer to use it. You
had to baby sit it. You had to be there
to click approve every time it asked a
question. Not anymore. Open AI just put
Codex inside the Chat GPT mobile app.
iPhone, Android, free plan, go plan.
Everyone gets it. And the way they built
it is what makes this nuts. Your phone
does not run the code. The code runs on
your Mac, or your laptop, or a Mac mini
sitting in your closet, or a remote
server. Your phone just connects to that
machine. Then it shows you what's
happening, live, in real time. You see
the terminal. You see the test results.
You see the changes Codex wants to make.
You tap approve. You tap reject. You
switch models mid task. You start a
brand new task from a coffee shop. Open
AI literally said this in the
announcement. Start new work, review
outputs, steer execution, and approve
next steps all from the Chat GPT mobile
app. Codex will keep running on your
laptop, Mac mini, or dev box. Read
between the lines on that. They are
telling you to leave your desk. This is
huge. And stick with me because I'm
going to show you exactly how a normal
business owner uses this to grow faster.
Hey, if we haven't met already, I'm the
digital avatar of Julian Goldie, CEO of
SEO agency Goldie Agency. Whilst he's
helping clients get more leads and
customers, I'm here to help you get the
latest AI updates. And Julian Goldie
reads every comment, so make sure you
comment below. A year ago, AI coding
tools maxed out at maybe 30 minutes of
work before they broke or got lost. Now,
Codex can run for hours. Rakuten, the
giant Japanese tech company, said Codex
helped them build a full mobile app,
back end in Python, the iOS app in
Swift, and it compressed a 3-month job
into weeks. That's a real number from a
real company. And now they're saying you
don't

Video title: I Replaced Opus 4.7 With a Free Chinese AI (INSANE)
TRANSCRIPT (first 6000 chars):
Okay, guys. So, continuing on with my
series where I do a test of all of the
latest LLMs and all of the latest models
to try and find what is the best
alternative to a $200 Claude match
subscription. In today's video, we're
going to be testing out Mimo inside
Claude code, but with a couple of
differences. So, this is Mimo Claude
code inside, sorry, uh
using Astro builder skill, right? This
is a completely free skill that you can
get in the description of this video.
It's something I've been working on for
a while now. We're also going to be
using superpowers, right? So, overall,
this is what we're going to be doing
today. We're going to be doing
superpowers. We're going to be using
superpowers,
Mimo V 2.5 Pro, and then also,
uh basically, going to be using
the Astro builder skill, which, like I
said, you can get in the description of
this video.
So, if you don't know what this Astro
builder skill is, I made this 2 months
ago or so. Basically, all this is is a
fairly simple skill
that will generate premium websites for
you using any model, right? It uses
Astro, it has a database, lead gen,
everything you need for a web website.
You can easily add this to your own
directories using these commands right
here. I'll leave a link to this GitHub
in the description. I made this, right?
So, completely free, open source, do
whatever you want with it, as usual.
It's fairly popular, 15 stars for four
forks isn't bad, really, for something
that doesn't haven't really been using
that much, to be honest with you. But, I
thought today, because the Mimo test
yesterday was so effective, or 2 days
ago, it was so good, I thought today
we'll do another test using Mimo, but
this time using the superpower skill and
the Astro builder skill. So, let's have
a little look at what this actually
looks like.
So, first of all, I set, um
Mimo to use,
sorry, I set Claude code to use Mimo,
right? So, you see here, model is set to
Xiaomi. We can actually test this by
going to OpenRouter and going up here,
going to logs, and we should see Xiaomi
3:36 p.m. There we go. Uh it doesn't
actually say it's inside Claude code, I
don't think, but I know it's inside
Claude code. So, yeah, it is working.
It's running. Beautiful.
Okay, so we actually need more tok
