ot-security-agent-skills (9 stars): free agent skills that do first-pass forensics on Modbus, S7, IEC-104 and BACnet traffic.

claude-hardware-in-the-loop (37 stars): AI agents that help design boards, CAD and firmware, but cannot call a job done until hard checks pass.

This Claude Code skill turns boards into Python scripts that generate KiCad files, builds enclosures with CadQuery, and tests firmware against a digital twin. Nothing counts as done until ERC, DRC and live part checks pass. It is source-available, not open source, so check the license before reuse.

For controls and electronics engineers: agent help on boards that must pass checks before they ship.

You can try three pretrained AI agents that spot anomalies and rare events in your own sensor data free for 14 days, no card needed.

Archetype AI offers a 14-day free trial, no card, with three pretrained Newton agents for anomaly discovery, operational state monitoring and rare event detection on your own sensor data. Uploads cap at 2 GiB per file and runs at 2 hours. It is a trial, not a free tier.

For operations and reliability teams: try anomaly and state monitoring on plant sensor data.

Data centers are getting priority gas turbine slots, but four hurdles still stand between a slot and running their own power.

At Singapore International Energy Week, Giresh Prabhat says turbine suppliers are giving data centers priority slots, engineering teams and commercial flexibility. That is his practitioner read as head of Atrion Energy and a former GE Vernova executive, not an OEM quote; Mitsubishi Power says new large-frame deliveries now run to about 2031. He lists four hurdles still in the way: sizing bring-your-own-power at N+1 to N+3 plus fuel cells, gas permitting in Southeast Asia, an owner-operator business model, and long-term service agreements built for grid plants rather than campus load. A slot is not a running plant.
