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.
# Pressure Vessel Design Skill ## Purpose The Pressure Vessel Design skill provides capabilities for designing and analyzing pressure vessels per ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, ensuring code compliance and safe operation. ## Capabilities - ASME Section VIII Division 1/2 compliance - Shell and head thickness calculations - Nozzle reinforcement analysis - Flange rating and selection - Hydrostatic test specification - MDMT (Minimum Design Metal Temperature) determination - Stress classification and evaluation - U-stamp documentation support ## Usage Guidelines ### ASME Section VIII Overview #### Division Comparison | Aspect | Division 1 | Division 2 | |--------|------------|------------| | Design basis | Design-by-rule | Design-by-analysis | | Allowable stress | Lower | Higher | | Safety factor | 3.5 (UTS) | 2.4 (UTS) | | Analysis required | Limited | Detailed FEA | | Typical application | General service | High pressure, critical | ### Shell and Head Design #### Cylindrical Shell (Division 1) ``` Internal pressure: t = (P * R) / (S * E - 0.6 * P) External pressure: t = iterative based on L/D_o and D_o/t Where: t = required thickness P = design pressure R = inside radius S = al

What does the pressure-vessel skill do?
Skill for pressure vessel design and analysis per ASME BPVC
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill pressure-vessel --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.
