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.
# Reactor Designer Skill ## Purpose The Reactor Designer Skill performs chemical reactor design calculations, including reactor type selection, sizing, configuration optimization, and performance prediction. ## Capabilities - Reactor type selection (CSTR, PFR, batch, fluidized bed) - Reactor sizing calculations - Conversion and yield predictions - Residence time distribution analysis - Heat management design - Multiple reactor configurations - Recycle stream optimization - Scale-up considerations ## Usage Guidelines ### When to Use - Designing new reactor systems - Optimizing existing reactor performance - Evaluating reactor alternatives - Scale-up reactor designs ### Prerequisites - Kinetic model available - Feed specifications defined - Target conversion specified - Operating constraints identified ### Best Practices - Consider heat effects carefully - Evaluate multiple configurations - Include safety margins - Validate with pilot data ## Process Integration This skill integrates with: - Kinetic Model Development - Catalyst Evaluation and Optimization - Process Simulation Model Development ## Configuration ```yaml reactor-designer: reactor-types: - cstr - pfr - batch - semi-batch

What does the reactor-designer skill do?
Chemical reactor design skill for sizing, configuration selection, and performance optimization
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill reactor-designer --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.
