dns - DNS Configuration & Management
The dns module provides a simple interface for viewing current DNS settings, listing available DNS servers, and performing maintenance tasks like refreshing the system's DNS cache.
When to Activate
- When checking which DNS servers the system is currently using.
- When troubleshooting domain name resolution issues.
- When needing to flush/refresh the local DNS cache to pick up changes.
Core Principles & Rules
- Visibility: Consolidates DNS info into a single command (
current). - Maintenance: Use
refreshto clear cached name resolution data.
Patterns & Examples
View Configuration
# Show the current system DNS settings
x dns current
Refresh Cache
# Flush and refresh the system DNS cache
x dns refresh
List Available Servers
# List all configured DNS server addresses
x dns ls
Checklist
- Confirm if the user is investigating a resolution problem or just checking settings.
- Verify if a DNS cache flush is appropriate for the current issue.

pufferlib
High-performance reinforcement learning framework optimized for speed and scale. Use when you need fast parallel training, vectorized environments, multi-agent systems, or integration with game environments (Atari, Procgen, NetHack). Achieves 2-10x speedups over standard implementations. For quick prototyping or standard algorithm implementations with extensive documentation, use stable-baselines3 instead.
fluidsim
Framework for computational fluid dynamics simulations using Python. Use when running fluid dynamics simulations including Navier-Stokes equations (2D/3D), shallow water equations, stratified flows, or when analyzing turbulence, vortex dynamics, or geophysical flows. Provides pseudospectral methods with FFT, HPC support, and comprehensive output analysis.
metabolomics-workbench-database
Access NIH Metabolomics Workbench via REST API (4,200+ studies). Query metabolites, RefMet nomenclature, MS/NMR data, m/z searches, study metadata, for metabolomics and biomarker discovery.
geniml
This skill should be used when working with genomic interval data (BED files) for machine learning tasks. Use for training region embeddings (Region2Vec, BEDspace), single-cell ATAC-seq analysis (scEmbed), building consensus peaks (universes), or any ML-based analysis of genomic regions. Applies to BED file collections, scATAC-seq data, chromatin accessibility datasets, and region-based genomic feature learning.
