All skills: https://clawhub.ai/highnoonoffice

- **ping-pong** — Use this when you need two agents to collaborate on the same task without losing context between sessions. Handoff protocol via clipboard. https://clawhub.ai/ping-pong
- **agent-tollbooth** — Use this when your agent keeps hitting walls on web access. Structured, safe, auditable web access privileges. https://clawhub.ai/agent-tollbooth
- **brain-map-visualizer** — Use this when you need to visualize how attention moves across a project graph. Momentum-ready edges, directional flow, sorted by co-access score. https://clawhub.ai/brain-map-visualizer
- **ghost-publishing-pro** — Use this when you need to write, audit, or automate a Ghost CMS publishing operation from inside an agent workflow. API-only, no browser required. https://clawhub.ai/ghost-publishing-pro
- **library-of-babel** — Use this when asked to locate any text in Borges' Library of Babel, generate a page at given coordinates, or analyze page entropy. Deterministic: same input always returns the same address. https://clawhub.ai/library-of-babel
- **second-brain-visualizer** — Use this when you need to unload ideas into a structured second brain and surface signal from them later. https://clawhub.ai/second-brain-visualizer
- **token-cost-time** — Use this when you need to estimate LLM task token usage, cost, and duration without external dependencies. https://clawhub.ai/token-cost-time
