What it can do

  • Keeps SKILL.md small and loads reference files only when needed, each pointing to the real source in your OpenFOAM install.
  • Explains how to run one or two timesteps to check settings before a full run.
  • Maps the v14 source tree and covers case layout, fvModel source terms and cellZones.
  • Documents AMR dictionary setup with hexRef8 and known breakage with empty patches and parallel runs, and keeps a learnings file the agent adds to.

Limitations

  • Written for OpenFOAM v14; other releases use different dictionaries and solvers.
  • The setup script edits ~/.claude/settings.json permissions, and the repository has no licence file.
