About

The c-network skill provides modern CLI tools for network debugging and API testing, featuring doggo for DNS lookups and httpie for human-readable HTTP requests. It enables DNS queries with various record types and nameservers, plus intuitive HTTP interactions with JSON support and file transfers. Use this skill when you need to troubleshoot network issues or test APIs directly from your terminal with cleaner output than traditional tools.

Documentation

Networking

doggo (DNS client)

# Basic DNS lookup
doggo example.com

# Specific record type
doggo example.com MX
doggo example.com AAAA
doggo example.com TXT
doggo example.com NS
doggo example.com CNAME

# Use specific nameserver
doggo example.com --nameserver 1.1.1.1
doggo example.com --nameserver 8.8.8.8

# DNS over HTTPS
doggo example.com --class IN --type A --nameserver https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query

# JSON output
doggo example.com --json

httpie (HTTP client)

Human-friendly alternative to curl:

# GET request
http GET api.example.com/users

# POST with JSON body
http POST api.example.com/users name=John [email protected]

# Headers
http GET api.example.com Authorization:"Bearer token123"

# Download file
http --download https://example.com/file.zip

# Form upload
http --form POST api.example.com [email protected]

# With auth
http -a user:password GET api.example.com/protected

# Follow redirects
http --follow GET example.com

# Show only response headers
http --headers GET example.com

# Verbose (show request + response)
http --verbose GET example.com

Guidelines

  • Use doggo for DNS debugging instead of dig or nslookup
  • Use http (httpie) for API testing instead of curl — output is colorized and formatted
  • For POST requests, httpie auto-detects JSON vs form data
  • key=value sends as JSON string, key:=123 sends as JSON number

quantizing-models-bitsandbytes

Other

This skill quantizes LLMs to 8-bit or 4-bit precision using bitsandbytes, achieving 50-75% memory reduction with minimal accuracy loss. It's ideal for running larger models on limited GPU memory or accelerating inference, supporting formats like INT8, NF4, and FP4. The skill integrates with HuggingFace Transformers and enables QLoRA training and 8-bit optimizers.

dispatching-parallel-agents

Other

This Claude Skill dispatches multiple agents to investigate and fix 3+ independent problems concurrently. It is designed for scenarios involving unrelated failures that can be resolved without shared state or dependencies. The core capability is parallel problem-solving, assigning one agent per independent problem domain to maximize efficiency.
