Vitals

macOS system performance diagnostics — see how the machine is running and what's slowing it down: CPU/GPU/memory/energy hogs, thermal throttling, memory and swap pressure, disk usage, Spotlight indexing, launchd/startup load, via a deterministic read-only CLI with known-process interpretation (kernel_task, WindowServer, mds_stores). USE WHEN mac slow, system slow, what's slowing down my mac, computer is slow, what's eating CPU, CPU usage, GPU usage, what's using the GPU, memory pressure, RAM usage, swap, runaway process, fans loud, mac running hot, thermal throttling, system health, check my mac, how's my system running, top processes, energy hogs, activity monitor, startup items, launch agents load, system taxed. NOT FOR network/wifi diagnostics, website or deployed-app health monitoring, or security scanning.

What does the Vitals skill do?

macOS system performance diagnostics — see how the machine is running and what's slowing it down: CPU/GPU/memory/energy hogs, thermal throttling, memory and swap pressure, disk usage, Spotlight indexing, launchd/startup load, via a deterministic read-only CLI with known-process interpretation (kernel_task, WindowServer, mds_stores).

NOT FOR network/wifi diagnostics, website or deployed-app health monitoring, or security scanning. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the Vitals skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install lifeos-vitals` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/lifeos-vitals/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does Vitals work with?

Vitals runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the Vitals skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use Vitals after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/lifeos-vitals` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the Vitals skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
