Nav2 Navigation Skill
Overview
Expert skill for configuring and customizing the ROS2 Nav2 navigation stack, including behavior trees, costmaps, planners, and controllers.
Capabilities
- Configure Nav2 navigation stack with all plugins
- Create behavior trees for navigation logic
- Set up costmap layers (static, obstacle, inflation, voxel)
- Configure planners (NavFn, Smac, ThetaStar)
- Set up controllers (DWB, Regulated Pure Pursuit, MPPI)
- Implement recovery behaviors (spin, backup, wait)
- Configure waypoint following and route planning
- Set up navigation server lifecycle management
- Implement custom BT nodes and plugins
- Debug navigation failures and path planning issues
Target Processes
- nav2-navigation-setup.js
- path-planning-algorithm.js
- dynamic-obstacle-avoidance.js
- autonomous-exploration.js
Dependencies
- Nav2 (Navigation2)
- BehaviorTree.CPP
- navigation2 plugins
- costmap_2d
Usage Context
This skill is invoked when processes require mobile robot navigation setup, costmap configuration, path planning, or behavior tree design for autonomous navigation.
Output Artifacts
- Nav2 parameter files (YAML)
- Behavior tree XML files
- Costmap configuration
- Planner and controller parameters
- Recovery behavior configurations
- Custom BT node implementations

gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
