Effortless Crux Cockpit Management for AI Agents

Effortless Crux Cockpit Management for AI Agents

This skill allows seamless management of the Crux Cockpit, a read-only browser GUI that interfaces with a Crux research vault. It locates the vault, initiates a server on localhost, verifies operation, and provides a direct URL for user access. Additionally, it offers status monitoring and lifecycle management of the cockpit, including functionalities to stop or restart the server, as well as a demo setup for initial use.

• Automatically locates the user's Crux research vault.
• Starts a read-only Crux Cockpit server (`crux serve`) on localhost.
• Performs verification to ensure successful server launch.
• Provides a clickable URL for direct GUI access in a browser.
• Manages server lifecycle with options to check status, stop, restart, and setup or demonstrate when no vault is available.
