SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the need to reinstall or manually rebuild your Ferrox runtime when you want a different set of capabilities. It lets you switch profiles, disable clusters, and restore the default surface while keeping the active skill layout consistent.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Profile Management: Apply core, standard, or composed profiles to change the active skill set.
  • Cluster Control: Disable or re-enable capability clusters such as audit, docs, ui, or utility without reinstalling.
  • Surface Recovery: Reset the runtime back to the install-time profile after experimental changes.
  • Use Case: If your current agent environment feels overloaded, you can quickly trim it down to a smaller surface for faster, more focused work.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to list the current surface so you can inspect enabled and disabled clusters before making any profile or cluster changes.

Frequently Asked Questions about ferrox-surface

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I switch Ferrox runtime profiles without reinstalling the agent environment?▼

To switch Ferrox runtime profiles without reinstalling, apply core, standard, or composed profiles to reconfigure the active skill surface dynamically. This updates the installed skills directory using local configuration files, changing your active capabilities instantly without a full rebuild.

How do I disable capability clusters in a Claude-based agent environment?▼

You disable capability clusters in a Claude-based agent environment by targeting specific groups like audit, docs, ui, or utility for deactivation. This trims the active skill surface, reducing runtime overload for faster and more focused agent operations.

What is a Ferrox skill surface and when do I need to manage it?▼

A Ferrox skill surface is the active set of runtime capabilities available to an agent. You need to manage it when your environment feels overloaded, allowing you to trim clusters or apply focused profiles for dynamic capability selection and composition.

Can I reset my Ferrox runtime back to the default install-time profile?▼

Yes, you can reset your Ferrox runtime back to the default install-time profile using the surface recovery feature. This restores the original skill layout and overrides any experimental cluster changes or composed profiles applied during your session.

Do I need to manually edit local files to reconfigure the Ferrox skill layout?▼

You do not need to manually edit files to reconfigure the Ferrox skill layout, as the skill handles reading and writing local configuration files automatically. It validates known profiles and clusters internally to re-stage the skills directory safely.
