skills/neuroskill-activity/SKILL.md
NeuroSkill activity tracking — file interactions, terminal commands, focus sessions, meetings, clipboard, productivity scoring, weekly digest, brain awareness, and multi-monitor awareness. Tracks files, terminal commands (50+ categories), dev loops, zone switches, EEG-correlated struggle prediction, and task type detection. Use when asking about coding activity, file history, productivity, meetings, terminal usage, dev workflow, or brain state.
npx skillsauth add neuroskill-com/skills neuroskill-activityInstall this skill globally with one command. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf.

Track every terminal command across all shells and terminals — VS Code, iTerm, Terminal.app, tmux, ssh.
npx neuroskill terminal # hook status for all shells
npx neuroskill terminal status # installed/health per shell + command count
npx neuroskill terminal install zsh # install zsh hook (also: bash, fish, powershell)
npx neuroskill terminal uninstall zsh # remove hook from ~/.zshrc
npx neuroskill terminal commands # recent commands (last hour) with exit codes
npx neuroskill terminal impact # focus delta by command category (brain-fused)
npx neuroskill terminal loops # edit-build-test dev loop detection
The daemon serves hook scripts and installs them into shell rc files:
# Via CLI
npx neuroskill terminal install zsh
npx neuroskill terminal install bash
npx neuroskill terminal install fish
npx neuroskill terminal install powershell
# Via HTTP API
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:18444/v1/activity/install-shell-hook \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"shell":"zsh"}'
# Check status
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:18444/v1/activity/shell-hook-status \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"shell":"zsh"}'
# Get hook script content
curl http://127.0.0.1:18444/v1/activity/shell-hook?shell=zsh
Hooks are self-contained scripts stored in ~/.skill/shell-hooks/. No path dependencies — works from DMG, NSIS, or tar app bundles.

~/.skill/activity.sqlitetools
NeuroSkill EEG API transport layer — WebSocket and HTTP protocols, port discovery, Quick Start, output modes (default/--json/--full), and global CLI flags. Use when setting up a connection, choosing transport, or understanding output format options.
development
NeuroSkill `say`, `listen`, `notify`, `calibrate`, `calibrations`, `timer`, and `raw` commands — on-device TTS speech, real-time WebSocket event streaming, OS notifications, calibration profile management, focus timer, and raw JSON passthrough. Use when streaming live EEG events, speaking text aloud, sending alerts, starting calibration, or sending arbitrary commands.
development
NeuroSkill `status` command — full system snapshot including device state, signal quality, EEG scores, band powers, ratios, embeddings, labels (with top texts), app usage (top apps by time), screenshots (OCR counts + top apps), hooks summary, sleep summary, and recording history. Use when checking current EEG state, device connection, session metadata, what apps were used, or screenshot statistics.
testing
NeuroSkill `sleep` and `umap` commands — EEG-based sleep stage classification (Wake/N1/N2/N3/REM) with efficiency and bout analysis, and 3D UMAP projection of session embeddings for spatial comparison. Use when analysing sleep quality or visualising neural state separation between sessions.
