SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps users quickly see which machines in their Oracle fleet are reachable and generate local shortcuts for easy access, eliminating manual lookup and unreliable ping attempts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Node discovery: Reads contacts.json to list all nodes without hard‑coding.
  • Alive verification: Pings each node via maw hey and reports status.
  • Shortcut creation: Optionally creates local .claude/skills/<node>/SKILL.md shortcuts after user confirmation.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to run /machines ping to discover and check which fleet nodes are alive.

Frequently Asked Questions about machines

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I discover reachable fleet nodes from my contacts list?▼

Fleet node discovery reads contacts.json to list all configured machines and pings each one to verify reachability, reporting which nodes are currently online without manual lookup.

How do I ping Oracle fleet machines to check if they are alive?▼

Pinging Oracle fleet machines uses the maw hey command to check each node's status, automatically testing connectivity and reporting back which machines in your fleet are alive and reachable.

Can I create local shortcuts for fleet nodes after checking their status?▼

Yes, creating local shortcuts for fleet nodes is supported by generating .claude/skills/<node>/SKILL.md files after user confirmation, allowing quick access to verified machines in future sessions.

Do I need specific permissions to write shortcut files for discovered machines?▼

Writing shortcut files requires permission to write in the .claude/skills directory, as the skill creates local SKILL.md files for each reachable fleet node only after explicit user confirmation.

What is the best way to check which machines in my Oracle fleet are online?▼

The best way to check online machines in an Oracle fleet is to run /machines ping, which reads contacts.json and verifies each node's status by pinging them individually to report their availability.

Why does node discovery read from contacts.json instead of a hardcoded list?▼

Node discovery reads contacts.json instead of hardcoded values to dynamically list all fleet machines, ensuring the discovery process adapts automatically as contacts are added or removed without requiring manual updates.
