#+TITLE: Niri Robustness Fixes, OpenCode Research, and README Update
#+DATE: 2025-12-28
#+KEYWORDS: niri-window-capture, opencode-agents, screenshot-latest, deployment, readme, code-review
#+COMMITS: 6
#+COMPRESSION_STATUS: uncompressed
* Session Summary
** Date: 2025-12-28 (Continuation from earlier 2025-12-28 session)
** Focus Area: Implementing code review fixes, researching OpenCode, deployment decisions, documentation
* Accomplishments
- [X] Applied all 4 high-priority niri-window-capture code review recommendations (skills-m21)
- [X] Added dependency checks to all 3 niri-window-capture scripts
- [X] Added screenshot directory validation with auto-creation
- [X] Improved error handling for niri command failures
- [X] Added audit logging to capture-all-windows.sh
- [X] Moved skills-e8h (waybar+niri) to dotfiles repo where it belongs
- [X] Researched OpenCode agents and documented findings (skills-czz)
- [X] Decided to deploy screenshot-latest skill (skills-4yn)
- [X] Deployed screenshot-latest to dotfiles claudeCodeSkills and openCodeSkills
- [X] Ran dotfiles deploy.sh to activate new skills
- [X] Updated README with table of all 14 skills (skills-a23)
* Key Decisions
** Decision 1: Deploy screenshot-latest skill
- Context: Skill was complete but marked "Pending decision" in DEPLOYMENT.md
- Options considered:
1. Deploy globally - low risk, useful for avoiding path typing
2. Keep pending - no clear reason to delay
3. Archive - would lose a useful capability
- Rationale: Read-only skill with no security concerns, complements niri-window-capture
- Impact: Added to both claudeCodeSkills and openCodeSkills in dotfiles
** Decision 2: Table format for README skills list
- Context: Previous README had verbose 2-skill descriptions, repo now has 14 skills
- Options considered:
1. Verbose descriptions for all - too long, maintenance burden
2. Table with status column - compact, shows deployment state
3. Just names - loses context
- Rationale: Table provides at-a-glance overview with deployment status
- Impact: README now shows all 14 skills categorized as Deployed/Available/Development
* Problems & Solutions
| Problem | Solution | Learning |
|---------|----------|----------|
| skills-e8h filed in wrong repo | Closed in skills, created dotfiles-7ri | Waybar config lives in dotfiles, not skills |
| Remote git server still down | Local commits only, bd sync partially works | 30+ commits queued for push when server returns |
| niri scripts lacked robustness | Added dependency checks, error handling, logging | Defense in depth even for "simple" scripts |
* Technical Details
** Code Changes
- Total files modified: 8
- Key files changed:
- =skills/niri-window-capture/scripts/capture-focused.sh= - Added dependency checks, directory validation, error handling
- =skills/niri-window-capture/scripts/capture-by-title.sh= - Same robustness improvements
- =skills/niri-window-capture/scripts/capture-all-windows.sh= - Added logging, cached window query, graceful failure handling
- =DEPLOYMENT.md= - Updated OpenCode agents section with research findings
- =DEPLOYMENT.md= - Updated skills status table (screenshot-latest, niri-window-capture now deployed)
- =README.md= - Replaced verbose skill list with comprehensive table
- =~/proj/dotfiles/home/claude.nix= - Added screenshot-latest to both skill lists
** Commands Used
#+begin_src bash
# Deploy dotfiles changes
cd ~/proj/dotfiles && ./bin/deploy.sh
# Verify skills deployed
ls -la ~/.claude/skills/
# Move issue to correct repo
bd close skills-e8h --reason="Moved to dotfiles repo"
cd ~/proj/dotfiles && bd create --title="..." --type=task
#+end_src
** Architecture Notes
- OpenCode reads skills from ~/.claude/skills/ (Claude-compatible path)
- OpenCode has Build (full access) and Plan (read-only) built-in agents
- Skills are global to all agents, permissions control per-agent access
- niri-window-capture now caches window list query instead of re-querying per window
* Process and Workflow
** What Worked Well
- TodoWrite for tracking the 4 niri-window-capture fixes
- Quick issue turnaround: show -> claim -> fix -> commit -> close
- Web search + fetch for OpenCode documentation research
- Table format in README scales better than verbose descriptions
** What Was Challenging
- Remote git server down entire session (local commits only)
- Remember to file issues in correct repo (dotfiles vs skills)
* Learning and Insights
** Technical Insights
- OpenCode supports .claude/skills/ path - no separate deployment needed
- OpenCode agents are like "modes" with different tool access, not separate personalities
- Always cache expensive queries (window list) when iterating
** Process Insights
- Code review recommendations are actionable when specific
- "Available" vs "Deployed" status distinction useful for tracking
** Architectural Insights
- Skills repo has 14 skills now: 5 deployed, 8 available, 1 template
- Skills work with both Claude Code and OpenCode from same path
* Context for Future Work
** Open Questions
- When will git server come back online? 30+ commits queued
- Should we add rate limiting to capture-all-windows.sh for many windows?
** Next Steps
- Push all local commits when server available
- Consider remaining ready issues (vb5, al5, x2l, rpf, etc.)
- Run code-review on other skills as validation
** Related Work
- [[file:2025-12-28-code-review-skill-creation-worklog-cleanup.org][Earlier 2025-12-28 session]] - Created code-review skill, cleaned up worklog
- [[file:2025-12-26-multi-lens-code-review-workflow-testing.org][2025-12-26 Multi-lens testing]] - Created review lenses
* Raw Notes
- Session was continuation from earlier today (context recovery from compaction)
- OpenCode docs: https://opencode.ai/docs/agents/ and https://opencode.ai/docs/skills/
- niri-window-capture scripts now have consistent LOG_TAG="niri-capture" across all 3
- DEPLOYMENT.md niri-window-capture was showing "awaiting security review" but already deployed - fixed
** Issues Closed This Session
- skills-m21: Apply niri-window-capture code review recommendations
- skills-e8h: Moved to dotfiles as dotfiles-7ri
- skills-czz: Research OpenCode agents for skill integration
- skills-4yn: Decide on screenshot-latest skill deployment
- skills-a23: Update main README to list all 14 skills
