Ship a homelab or VPS ops skill to your agent in one command

Ten AgentSkills-layout skills for running a home server or small VPS: reverse proxy, remote access, hardening, bot deployment, backup, health checks. Drop a folder under skills/ and Claude Code, Hermes or any AgentSkills-spec loader reads it straight from SKILL.md.

What's in the Pack

Every skill ships with a Docker-driven test under tests/; tests/run.sh runs the set. A full checkout runs nine and skips one, wan-failover-uplink-guard, which needs two physical uplinks. The public repo's CI runs the four free skills and skips the paid six, which .gitignore keeps out of that repo.

# VPS Basics: ufw + fail2ban

## Overview

A fresh VPS ships with every port reachable and no brute-force protection.
This skill closes that gap in two steps: `ufw` denies inbound traffic by
default and allows only named ports, `fail2ban` bans an IP that fails SSH
login repeatedly. Do this before any service goes on the box, not after.

## Steps

1. Install both tools:

       apt-get update && apt-get install -y ufw fail2ban

2. Set the firewall's default policy, then open only the ports the box
   needs. Always open SSH before enabling, or the enable locks you out:

       ufw default deny incoming
       ufw default allow outgoing
       ufw allow 22/tcp
       ufw allow 80/tcp
       ufw allow 443/tcp
       ufw --force enable

3. Point fail2ban's SSH jail at the box's real log path and enable it:

       cp references/jail.local /etc/fail2ban/jail.local
       systemctl enable --now fail2ban
