compute-env-setup SKILL.md skillA
compute-env-setup from aipoch/open-science is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add aipoch/open-science/compute-env-setup@git:20260917.4395768Pins git:20260917.4395768 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Prepare reproducible setup instructions and validate a user-managed named software environment on an Open-Science SSH Compute Host, including direct SSH and Slurm hosts. Use when a remote job needs packages, modules, cache variables, or a repeatable activation that the host does not already provide.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Compute environment setup
Prepare one reproducible environment definition and instructions for one small user-managed host
activation file. Open-Science resolves `submitJob(..., { environment: '<name>' })` by sourcing
`~/.open-science/environments/<name>.sh` before the workload. Existing `~/.openscience/environments/<name>.sh` definitions remain readable in place. Before creating an activation, check both names: update the existing definition at its exact location; if both exist, ask the user which to retain. Never create a second activation just to rename the brand. The file contains activation only; it
does not install packages when a job starts.
The environment, package caches, images, and activation file are user-managed durable resources,
not Open-Science-owned components. This Skill may inspect them and prepare exact setup/removal
commands, but must not execute commands that create, replace, or remove those resources. The user
or host administrator runs those commands outside Open-Science and owns their lifecycle. Do not
interpret the `~/.openscience` path as app ownership.
Use `host.compute` only in `repl_execute` JavaScript. Python and R data kernels do not expose it.

How to install
mdr add aipoch/open-science/compute-env-setup@sha256:c62770e0c3185eb2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260917.4395768, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
