Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Lumerical Photonics Simulator ## Purpose Provides expert guidance on Lumerical photonics simulations, including FDTD, eigenmode expansion, and integrated device design. ## Capabilities - 2D/3D FDTD simulations - Eigenmode expansion (EME) - S-parameter extraction - Grating coupler optimization - CW and pulsed source analysis - CHARGE electrical integration ## Usage Guidelines 1. **FDTD Setup**: Configure FDTD simulations for photonic structures 2. **Mode Analysis**: Use MODE for eigenmode calculations 3. **S-Parameters**: Extract S-parameters for circuit modeling 4. **Optimization**: Use built-in optimization tools 5. **Integration**: Combine optical and electrical simulations ## Tools/Libraries - Lumerical FDTD - MODE - DEVICE

What does the lumerical-photonics-simulator skill do?
Lumerical FDTD and MODE skill for nanophotonics, integrated photonics, and solar cell design
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill lumerical-photonics-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.
