Decision brief
What it does—and where it fits
Use Wisp's environment Probe action. It performs bounded, read-only checks and stores the result on the ExecutionContext. An SSH probe batches every check into one authenticated session; do not replace it with an ad-hoc SSH discovery loop. Batch SSH uses IdentitiesOnly=yes; user…
Not for
- Tasks that require unconfirmed production actions or broad system permissions.
- Environments where the pinned source and install steps cannot be inspected.

Installation
Inspect first. Install second.
The source command is displayed only when detected. A safe inspection prompt is always available so your agent can explain every action before execution.

Inspect the Agent Skill "probe-compute-environment" from https://github.com/xuzhougeng/wisp-science/blob/95d2c13d1665d46a388b5bdc998dcce0d5ec2eee/skills/probe-compute-environment/SKILL.md at commit 95d2c13d1665d46a388b5bdc998dcce0d5ec2eee. List every install step, command, network request, credential, file read/write, external action, and rollback step. Explain whether it fits my task. Do not install or execute anything until I approve.
Workflow
What the source asks the agent to do
The source does not provide enough structured workflow evidence for a step-by-step guide.

Static risk signals and limitations
No configured static risk pattern was detected
This is not proof of safety. Runtime behavior, indirect dependencies, and hidden external systems are outside the static scan.

Probe compute environment
Use Wisp's environment Probe action. It performs bounded, read-only checks and
stores the result on the ExecutionContext. An SSH probe batches every check
into one authenticated session; do not replace it with an ad-hoc SSH discovery
loop. Batch SSH uses IdentitiesOnly=yes; users relying on a non-default
ssh-agent key must configure its IdentityFile in Wisp or SSH config.
After probing:
- Treat persisted capabilities as the server contract until it is probed again.
- Treat
gpu_summary: nullas no usable GPU. Plan CPU work and never add CUDA/GPU flags speculatively. - Treat
privilege: unprivilegedas no root or passwordless sudo. Do not usesudo, system package managers, or system paths; prefer user-space environments, modules, containers already installed by the administrator, or ask the user for an administrator-installed dependency. - Use a detected scheduler rather than running long work on a login node.
- Use the recorded interpreter paths and environment managers. Do not assume
python,Rscript, conda, mamba, or modulecmd exists when absent. - If the probe failed, inspect the saved error and ask the user to check the connection before manually probing again. Never loop or automatically retry an SSH probe. If it is merely stale relative to a server change, probe again before submitting work.

dask
Distributed computing for larger-than-RAM pandas/NumPy workflows. Use when you need to scale existing pandas/NumPy code beyond memory or across clusters. Best for parallel file processing, distributed ML, integration with existing pandas code. For out-of-core analytics on single machine use vaex; for in-memory speed use polars.

medchem
Medicinal chemistry filters for compound triage. Apply drug-likeness rules (Lipinski, Veber, CNS), structural alert catalogs (PAINS, NIBR, ChEMBL), complexity metrics, and the medchem query language for library filtering.

neurokit2
Use NeuroKit2 to build or audit reproducible research workflows for physiological time-series preprocessing, event/interval analysis, multimodal alignment, variability, and complexity. Trigger when code imports neurokit2 or needs its current APIs, schemas, and method-aware validation—not for diagnosis or device validation.

plan-orchestrate
Read a plan document, decompose it into steps, design a per-step agent chain from the ECC catalogue, and emit ready-to-paste /orchestrate custom prompts. Generative only — never invokes /orchestrate itself. Use when the user has a multi-step plan and wants to drive it through orchestrate without composing chains by hand.
