get-available-resources SKILL.md skillA
get-available-resources from marielynneblock/arcanum-artifex is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

This skill should be used at the start of any computationally intensive scientific task to detect and report available system resources (CPU cores, GPUs, memory, disk space). It creates a JSON file with resource information and strategic recommendations that inform computational approach decisions such as whether to use parallel processing (joblib, multiprocessing), out-of-core computing (Dask, Zarr), GPU acceleration (PyTorch, JAX), or memory-efficient strategies. Use this skill before…
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
# Get Available Resources ## Overview Detect available computational resources and generate strategic recommendations for scientific computing tasks. This skill automatically identifies CPU capabilities, GPU availability (NVIDIA CUDA, AMD ROCm, Apple Silicon Metal), memory constraints, and disk space to help make informed decisions about computational approaches. ## When to Use This Skill Use this skill proactively before any computationally intensive task: - **Before data analysis**: Determine if datasets can be loaded into memory or require out-of-core processing - **Before model training**: Check if GPU acceleration is available and which backend to use - **Before parallel processing**: Identify optimal number of workers for joblib, multiprocessing, or Dask - **Before large file operations**: Verify sufficient disk space and appropriate storage strategies - **At project initialization**: Understand baseline capabilities for making architectural decisions **Example scenarios:** - "Help me analyse this 50GB genomics dataset" → Use this skill first to determine if Dask/Zarr are needed …

How to install
mdr add marielynneblock/arcanum-artifex/get-available-resources@sha256:9b5244b2827925f9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260710.0115f49, 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.
