Apply a saved (N,3,3) rotation-matrix stack to a 3-vector time-series — the missing last step that makes generatefacmatrix, sliding-window MVA, and model-LMN outputs actually usable. Rotates a vector CSV into FAC/LMN/boundary-normal coordinates via pyspedas tvectorrotate (qslerp-interpolated). Composes existing tools…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Analyze a magnetic boundary crossing (magnetopause, bow shock, current sheet, discontinuity) with minimum-variance analysis (MVA) to find the LMN boundary-normal frame, judge the result's reliability from the eigenvalue ratio, and render the rotated field. Composes existing spedas tools; adds no new tool.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Discover which SPICE coordinate frame fits a science question and transform vectors/time series into it — "what frame should I use for CME propagation / magnetospheric work / solar-wind turbulence, and how do I convert into it?" Composes existing tools; adds no new tool.

Route PySPEDAS/IDL SPEDAS coordinate-transform requests (cotrans, FAC, MVA, LMN, quaternions, frame metadata) into the right Agent Kit skill/tool path without inventing new MCP tools. Bridges tplot coordinate metadata, SPICE frame transforms, and matrix-based rotations while preserving artifacts and provenance.

Solve for a planar boundary's normal direction n and phase speed V from one discontinuity crossing seen at multiple spacecraft (the classic 4-s/c timing / CVA method) — fetch each spacecraft's position at the crossing, pair it with that spacecraft's crossing time, and solve the timing system by least squares. Use when…

ERG/Arase radiation-belt, wave-particle, PWE/MGF/particle, and ground-conjugate route-scout workflows. Use when a researcher asks for Arase/ERG chorus, EMIC, PWE/HFA/OFA, MEP-e/HEP/XEP/LEP particle flux, orbit/attitude, ISEE/MAGDAS/STEL magnetometer, OMTI all-sky imager, VLF, or pulsating-aurora context. This skill is…

Trace a magnetic field line from a spacecraft position to its ionospheric footpoint (or magnetic equator / L-shell apex) with a Tsyganenko/IGRF model — the magnetosphere conjugacy / ground-conjunction workflow, e.g. "where does this spacecraft map to on the ground?" or "find the conjugate ground station." Composes…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Plot a magnetic-field (or any vector) hodogram — one component against another as a parametric x-y curve — to read off wave polarization and rotation sense, classically in the minimum-variance (LMN) frame. Use for "is this a linear/circular/elliptical fluctuation, and which way does B rotate across this boundary?"…

Full magnetopause / bow-shock crossing study — fetch magnetic field + ion plasma moments, find the boundary-normal (LMN) frame with minimum-variance analysis, rotate the field, add spacecraft position context, and render the crossing. The flagship boundary-crossing skill; composes existing tools, adds none.…

Plan MMS FGM/MEC/EDP/SCM/FPI/HPCA route-scout and overview workflows as Agent Kit skill/resource recipes without expanding the default MCP tool surface.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Build a model-based (Shue magnetopause) LMN boundary-normal frame from B + spacecraft position and rotate B into LMN — the model counterpart to data-driven MVA. Use for a magnetopause crossing when you want a boundary normal independent of the field rotation, or to cross-check an MVA normal. Composes existing tools…

Four-spacecraft magnetic-gradient workflow for curlometer current density, linear gradient/curl/divergence and field-line curvature, and FOTE magnetic-null finding. Reuses existing data/coordinate/artifact tools plus PySPEDAS backends; adds no MCP tools. Requires four spacecraft magnetic-field vectors and positions in…

Compute a spacecraft's distance to the magnetotail neutral/current sheet (and whether it is north or south of it) from a GSM position time-series, using PySPEDAS neutral-sheet models — for plasma-sheet / current-sheet crossing studies in the tail. Use when asked "how far is the s/c from the neutral sheet?", "is it…

Build lightweight OMNI/Kyoto/NOAA space-weather context and cache-only smoke workflows through Agent Kit resources, with MCP-first CDAWeb routes and clearly marked external PySPEDAS loader fallbacks.

Resolve IDL-SPEDAS-style overview and geomagnetic-index intents to concrete SPEDAS Agent Kit data-source calls and dataset/parameter choices (THEMIS/MMS/RBSP overview context; Dst, AE/AL/AU, Kp, SYM-H).

Reproduce a published heliophysics paper or figure with SPEDAS Agent Kit by turning paper evidence into a narrow data plan, artifact bundle, provenance record, and actionable Agent Kit feedback.

Preflight and route real 3D particle distribution artifacts for moments, spectra, pitch-angle distributions, and velocity-space slices without expanding the default Agent Kit MCP tool surface.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Produce a 2D velocity-space distribution slice (spdslice2d) from a 3D particle distribution — the iconic SPEDAS plot for spotting beams, crescents, and non-Maxwellian ion/electron structure that moments and 1D spectra hide. Use when you have a 3D distribution artifact and want a vx–vy slice in a chosen plane…

Compute the field-aligned pitch-angle distribution (PAD) of a particle population over an interval to classify it as beam / pancake / isotropic or look for a loss cone — bridge a 3D distribution to an artifact, pair a co-temporal B field, run the pitch-angle spectrum, and render the PAD spectrogram. Composes existing…

Compute the quick-look 1-D power spectral density (FFT/Welch PSD) of one scalar channel over a single stationary interval — the spectrum-vs-frequency picture (no time axis) for reading off a spectral slope or peak. Use when you want "what's the PSD slope / spectral peak of this interval?" rather than its time…
