realtime_protocol_guidance_prompts
Generates short, imperative guidance prompts for the next experimental step from current video frame and protocol context. Output is optimized for voice broadcast (TTS) or AR overlay — concise, actionable, command-style — to guide researchers in real time, correct deviations, or resume experiments without breaking flow.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# Real-Time Protocol Guidance Prompts ## Overview `realtime_protocol_guidance_prompts` is the prompt-generation layer of the LabOS real-time XR guidance stack. Given the current first-person video frame (or VLM-derived scene description) and the active protocol context — current step, expected action, detected deviation, and operator state — it produces a single short guidance string optimized for voice synthesis (TTS) or AR overlay display. The output is imperative, concise, and actionable: "Add 50 µL buffer now." / "Vortex before proceeding." / "Step 4 complete. Move to pipette." — enabling hands-free, eyes-on-bench guidance that keeps the researcher in flow without interrupting to read a screen. ## When to Use This Skill Use this skill when any of the following conditions are present: - **Live XR-assisted protocol execution**: An operator wearing an XR headset is executing a wet-lab protocol and needs step-by-step voice or AR prompts at each transition — the agent must generate the next prompt based on current frame and protocol state. - **Deviation correction delivery**: `protocol_video_matching` has detected a deviation (e.g., skipped step, wrong volume) and the agent must con

What does the realtime_protocol_guidance_prompts skill do?
Generates short, imperative guidance prompts for the next experimental step from current video frame and protocol context. Output is optimized for voice broadcast (TTS) or AR overlay — concise, actionable, command-style — to guide researchers in real time, correct deviations, or resume experiments without breaking flow.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills --skill realtime_protocol_guidance_prompts --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 BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills, a repository with 135 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.
