What does the aspen-plus-simulator skill do?
Aspen Plus integration skill for steady-state process simulation, thermodynamic modeling, and equipment rating
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill aspen-plus-simulator --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From a5c-ai/babysitter, a repository with 1,642 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
