  • 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 pockebot on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Human Auth Biometric 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.
    https://github.com/pockebot/openpocket/tree/main/skills/human-auth-biometric
  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.

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/pockebot/openpocket.git /tmp/openpocket
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/openpocket/skills/human-auth-biometric .claude/skills/human-auth-biometric
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Human Auth Biometric 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 Human Auth Biometric 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 Human Auth Biometric 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.

Human Auth: Biometric

Use this when an app requires biometric authentication (fingerprint, face recognition) that the emulator cannot provide.

When to Trigger

  • App shows a fingerprint or face recognition dialog.
  • App requires biometric confirmation for a sensitive action (payment, account access).
  • Emulator shows "No biometric hardware detected" or similar.

How to Call

request_human_auth(
  capability: "biometric",
  instruction: "App requires biometric authentication. Please confirm this action.",
  uiTemplate: {
    title: "Biometric Confirmation Required",
    summary: "The app needs fingerprint/face verification. Approve to confirm."
  }
)

What You Receive

  • Usually no artifact — just an approval/rejection signal.
  • status: approved means the human confirmed the biometric action.

How to Apply

Biometric prompts on the emulator typically cannot be bypassed programmatically. Options:

  1. Dismiss and retry: Press Back to dismiss the biometric dialog, then look for a "Use password instead" or "Use PIN" fallback option. Enter the fallback credentials.

  2. Emulator fingerprint simulation (if available):

    shell("adb -s <device> emu finger touch 1")

    This simulates a fingerprint touch on some emulator versions.

  3. If no fallback exists: The flow may be blocked on the emulator. Report this to the user.

Tips

  • Most apps that use biometrics also offer a PIN/password fallback. Look for it.
  • On emulators with enrolled fingerprints, emu finger touch 1 can simulate a successful scan.
  • Real devices with actual biometric hardware would need the human to physically authenticate — this is the primary use case for this delegation.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Human Auth Biometric AI skill do?

Handle biometric authentication delegation (fingerprint, face recognition) when the Agent Phone lacks biometric hardware.

Why use Human Auth Biometric on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Human Auth Biometric 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 Human Auth Biometric in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/pockebot/openpocket/tree/main/skills/human-auth-biometric. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Human Auth Biometric?

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 Human Auth Biometric?

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

Is the Human Auth Biometric AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by pockebot under the MIT 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.
