clairvoyance

In D&D, Clairvoyance lets you place an invisible sensor in a location you know, seeing or hearing through it. Unlike Scrying (which follows a specific target in real time), Clairvoyance is a point-in-time snapshot of a place. The real-world version is remote system inspection: checking the state of a production environment you cannot SSH into, reading the public-facing state of a competitor's deployment, or gathering the current observable state of a system through its exposed interfaces without modifying it.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by Hmbown on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Clairvoyance AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Hmbown/Wizards-of-the-Ghosts.git /tmp/Wizards-of-the-Ghosts
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/Wizards-of-the-Ghosts/generated/hermes/investigation-and-preparation/clairvoyance .claude/skills/clairvoyance
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Clairvoyance in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Clairvoyance on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Clairvoyance is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Clairvoyance

Get a snapshot of a remote system or environment you cannot directly access.

What This Skill Does

In D&D, Clairvoyance lets you place an invisible sensor in a location you know, seeing or hearing through it. Unlike Scrying (which follows a specific target in real time), Clairvoyance is a point-in-time snapshot of a place. The real-world version is remote system inspection: checking the state of a production environment you cannot SSH into, reading the public-facing state of a competitor's deployment, or gathering the current observable state of a system through its exposed interfaces without modifying it. In this grimoire, Clairvoyance is treated as a hybrid spell with a shipping-now delivery profile. Canonical reference input: Clairvoyance (spell).

When To Use

  • You need to understand the current state of a system or environment you cannot directly access or modify.
  • You want a snapshot assessment — not ongoing monitoring (that is Scrying) but a point-in-time read.
  • You need to gather observable information about a remote service, API, or public-facing system.

Prerequisites

  • No extra runtime dependencies beyond Hermes Agent and the normal toolset for this session.

Procedure

  1. Restate the target, the success condition, and any no-touch boundaries before taking action.
  2. Identify the target location or system and what specifically you want to observe.
  3. Determine what is observable through legitimate interfaces: public APIs, status pages, DNS records, HTTP headers, documented endpoints.
  4. Collect the snapshot: gather all available observable state at this moment.
  5. Distinguish facts (what is directly observed) from inferences (what the observations suggest about internal state).
  6. Deliver the snapshot with a timestamp and confidence levels for any inferences.
  7. Package the result as the deliverables below, with confidence, assumptions, and unresolved risk called out explicitly.

Deliverables

  • A point-in-time snapshot of the target's observable state.
  • Inferences about internal state, clearly marked as inferences with confidence levels.
  • Recommendations for what to investigate further based on what the snapshot reveals.

Pitfalls / Guardrails

  • Keep the theatrical framing, but name the concrete mechanism that makes the skill useful right now.
  • Clairvoyance observes through legitimate channels only. Do not attempt to access systems beyond their public or authorized interfaces.
  • A snapshot is a moment in time, not a guarantee of current state. Always timestamp observations and note that they may already be stale.

Verification

  • Check that the result includes every deliverable promised above.
  • Check that confirmed facts, assumptions, and inferences are visibly separated.
  • Check which parts are concrete actions versus framing, so the user can tell what is real now.

Example Invocation

text
/clairvoyance get a snapshot of this [system/service/environment]. What can we observe right now through legitimate interfaces?

Frequently asked questions

What does the Clairvoyance AI skill do?

In D&D, Clairvoyance lets you place an invisible sensor in a location you know, seeing or hearing through it.

Why use Clairvoyance on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Clairvoyance is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Clairvoyance in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/Hmbown/Wizards-of-the-Ghosts/tree/main/generated/hermes/investigation-and-preparation/clairvoyance. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Clairvoyance?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Clairvoyance?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Clairvoyance with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Clairvoyance AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by Hmbown under the CC0-1.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
