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.
# Piping Stress Analysis Skill ## Purpose The Piping Stress Analysis skill provides capabilities for analyzing piping system stresses per ASME B31 codes, ensuring code compliance and equipment protection through proper flexibility analysis. ## Capabilities - Piping flexibility analysis - Thermal expansion stress calculation - Support and restraint design - Nozzle load verification - Flange leakage assessment - Code compliance verification (B31.1, B31.3) - CAESAR II integration - Piping isometric review ## Usage Guidelines ### ASME B31 Code Overview #### Code Selection | Code | Application | |------|-------------| | B31.1 | Power piping | | B31.3 | Process piping | | B31.4 | Liquid transportation | | B31.5 | Refrigeration piping | | B31.8 | Gas transmission | | B31.9 | Building services | #### Stress Categories ``` B31.3 Stress equations: Sustained stress: S_L = (P*D)/(4*t) + (0.75*i*M_A)/Z <= S_h Expansion stress: S_E = sqrt(S_b^2 + 4*S_t^2) <= S_A Occasional stress: S_L + S_occ <= k*S_h Where: P = pressure D = outside diameter t = wall thickness i = stress intensification factor (SIF) M_A = sustained moment Z = section modulus S_h = hot allowable stress S_A = allowable stress rang

What does the piping-stress skill do?
Skill for piping system stress analysis per ASME B31
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill piping-stress --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.
