Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/wedsamuel1230/embedded-engineering-skills --skill enclosure-designer
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads enclosure-designer automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Enclosure Designer

Use this skill to design practical enclosures without loading a full mechanical guide up front.

Resources

  • assets/basic-template.scad - starting OpenSCAD template
  • scripts/generate_enclosure.py - enclosure generator script
  • references/design-workflow.md - measurement, parameter, and generator workflow
  • references/dimensions.md - common board and module dimensions
  • references/print-and-protection.md - wall thickness, print settings, ventilation, and waterproofing

When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks for:

  • an enclosure, case, box, or housing
  • mounting holes or cutout placement
  • OpenSCAD-based enclosure generation
  • board fit checks for Arduino, ESP32, or Pico-class boards
  • print-material or weather-resistance guidance

Workflow

  1. Gather the minimum physical inputs:
    • board dimensions
    • tallest component
    • connector locations
    • mounting method
    • environmental constraints
  2. Open references/design-workflow.md for the parameterization flow.
  3. Open references/dimensions.md if the user does not already have exact measurements.
  4. Open references/print-and-protection.md for material, wall, ventilation, or moisture guidance.
  5. Use assets/basic-template.scad or scripts/generate_enclosure.py when the user needs a concrete starting model.

Core Rules

  • Treat user measurements as authoritative over reference dimensions.
  • Add clearance deliberately for connectors, wiring, and print tolerance.
  • Separate fit problems from printability problems.
  • Do not promise waterproofing from geometry alone.

Verification

  • The board and connectors fit with explicit clearance.
  • Mounting points and cable exits are reachable.
  • The selected material and wall thickness match the use environment.
  • Print orientation and support strategy are named before finalizing the design.

Integration

  • Pair with battery-selector or power-budget-calculator if battery size drives the enclosure volume.
  • Pair with readme-generator when the enclosure should be documented for a project repo.

Shared Output Contract

Use the shared Arduino skill contract: state assumptions, required tools and versions, implementation steps, tests/evidence by proof stage, known limitations, and recovery/security notes.

FAQ

What does the enclosure-designer skill do?

Use when users need a 3D-printable enclosure for an Arduino, ESP32, or RP2040 project and need help with measurements, cutouts, print settings, or environmental protection.

How do I install enclosure-designer?

Run npx skills add https://github.com/wedsamuel1230/embedded-engineering-skills --skill enclosure-designer in your project. The skills CLI detects the agents you use and copies the skill into the right folder. For Claude Code you can also place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/enclosure-designer/ (personal) or .claude/skills/enclosure-designer/ (project).

Which AI agents can use enclosure-designer?

Any agent that supports the open Agent Skills format (a folder with a SKILL.md file), including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Cline, OpenCode and more.

Is enclosure-designer safe to install?

No partner security audit is available yet. Skills can run commands and scripts, so read the SKILL.md and any bundled files before installing.

arduino-project-builder

wedsamuel1230/embedded-engineering-skills

Build complete Arduino and embedded projects across Arduino IDE, Arduino CLI, PlatformIO, and vendor-specific toolchains. Use when users request an application combining firmware, sensors, actuators, networking, power, or deployment rather than a code snippet. The bundled scaffold targets UNO, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi Pico; use the board profile and document limitations for other targets.

arduino-code-generator

wedsamuel1230/embedded-engineering-skills

Generate Arduino and embedded C++ snippets for sensors, actuators, buses, state machines, timing, data logging, and hardware abstraction. Use when a user requests implementation code and provide the exact board, framework, toolchain, pins, voltage, memory, and library versions first. Bundled templates target UNO, ESP32, and RP2040; document unsupported board or vendor-framework behavior instead of guessing.
