remote-compute-ssh SKILL.md skillA
remote-compute-ssh 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/remote-compute-ssh@git:20260917.4395768Pins git:20260917.4395768 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Evaluate and use SSH Remote Compute before choosing where to run GPU, high-memory, parallel, batch, model-inference, bioinformatics, or other long-running scientific work; supports short remote commands and asynchronous jobs with automatic harvest and analysis.
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
This skill covers remote compute over SSH, including direct execution and Slurm submission: listing hosts, creating handles, running short remote commands (callCommand), reading/writing host knowledge docs, and the full async job lifecycle — submit → save `job_id` → read non-blocking snapshots by that ID → harvest → analysis turn → publish artifacts. **Where host.compute runs:** `host.compute` lives ONLY on the control-plane REPL kernel — run every example below with the `repl_execute` tool (JavaScript), the same kernel that hosts `host.mcp`. The `python`/`r` data kernels have NO `host.compute` (SSH and approvals stay outside the sandbox workspace); calling it from a python/r cell will fail with `host.compute is undefined`. ## Choose an execution location Only Compute Hosts enabled for this Session are visible or callable. Discover them in one catalog; each entry has role `selected` or `available`. A non-empty selected pool is an execution instruction: run tool-backed task work on one or more selected hosts as the task requires. The pool has no priority and does not imply automatic multi-host scheduling. If no host is selected, choose from the …

How to install
mdr add aipoch/open-science/remote-compute-ssh@sha256:748a2293c5d9cbbdThe 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.
