What it does
Pick a skill below, add it to your assistant, and describe your problem in your own words.
- One skill, one job. Dead air, Dante, streaming, noise, loudness, DAB+, commissioning, events, reports and a glossary, plus a guide for each OnAir Garage tool.
- Numbers from scripts. Conversions and capacity calculations are done by tested code, not recalled by the model.
- Honest about limits. Every skill shows its status (to validate or validated), the date it was last verified, its sources and its limits.
Where it helps
For engineers, producers and students who want a second pair of eyes on a problem. The skills do not see your equipment and do not replace manuals, standards or a qualified engineer. All skills are open source under the MIT license.
How to use it
- Add the skill folder to Claude as a Skill, or open the universal prompt file and paste it into ChatGPT, Gemini or any assistant (custom GPT, Gem, system prompt, or the start of a chat).
- Describe your problem in your own words. The skill asks the few questions that change the answer.
- Check the answer against your equipment manuals and, where it matters, a measurement.
Limits
A skill makes an AI assistant more careful, not infallible. It cannot see your equipment, it can be wrong, and standards and platforms change. Every skill lists its sources and what it does not know, and shows whether a person has validated it. Mains power, RF power and structural work always need a qualified person.
