  • 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.

  • 1 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by Zhang-Henry on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Evo Dots Calculator 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/Zhang-Henry/CoEvoSkills/tree/main/artifacts/skills/powerlifting-coef-calc/evo-dots-calculator
  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/Zhang-Henry/CoEvoSkills.git /tmp/CoEvoSkills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/CoEvoSkills/artifacts/skills/powerlifting-coef-calc/evo-dots-calculator .claude/skills/evo-dots-calculator
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Evo Dots Calculator 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 Evo Dots Calculator 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 Evo Dots Calculator 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.

Dots Calculator Skill

Overview

Calculates Dots coefficients for International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) competition data. The Dots formula normalizes total lifted weight by bodyweight and sex.

Workflow

  1. Identify columns needed: Name, Sex, BodyweightKg, Best3SquatKg, Best3BenchKg, Best3DeadliftKg
  2. Copy these columns to Dots sheet (preserving original order and names)
  3. Append TotalKg column with Excel formula (sum of three lifts)
  4. Append Dots column with Excel formula using sex-dependent polynomial coefficients

Dots Formula

Dots = TotalKg * 500 / (Abw^4 + Bbw^3 + Cbw^2 + Dbw + E)

Male coefficients: A=-0.000001093, B=0.0007391293, C=-0.1918759221, D=24.0900756, E=-307.75076 Female coefficients: A=-0.0000010706, B=0.0005158568, C=-0.1126655495, D=13.6175032, E=-57.96288

Usage Example

python
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/app/environment/skills/evo-dots-calculator/scripts')
from utils import run_dots_pipeline, validate_dots_workbook

# Run the full pipeline
run_dots_pipeline('/root/data/openipf.xlsx')

# Validate the output
validate_dots_workbook('/root/data/openipf.xlsx')

Key Functions

  • get_dots_columns() - Returns list of column names needed for Dots
  • find_column_indices(header_row, column_names) - Maps column names to indices
  • copy_columns_to_dots(wb) - Copies relevant columns from Data to Dots sheet
  • add_totalkg_formula(ws_dots, sorted_cols, max_row) - Adds TotalKg Excel formula column
  • add_dots_formula(ws_dots, sorted_cols, max_row, total_col) - Adds Dots Excel formula column
  • run_dots_pipeline(input_path, output_path) - End-to-end entry point
  • validate_dots_workbook(path) - Validates structure and formulas

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Evo Dots Calculator AI skill do?

Calculate Dots coefficients for IPF powerlifting data. Copies relevant columns from Data sheet to Dots sheet, adds TotalKg and Dots formulas. Use when computing normalized strength scores for powerlifting competitions.

Why use Evo Dots Calculator on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Evo Dots Calculator 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 Evo Dots Calculator in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/Zhang-Henry/CoEvoSkills/tree/main/artifacts/skills/powerlifting-coef-calc/evo-dots-calculator. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Evo Dots Calculator?

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 Evo Dots Calculator?

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

Is the Evo Dots Calculator AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by Zhang-Henry under the Apache-2.0 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.
