Infotécnica Skill

Day 16 / 60

I'm working on Don Nelson's harness v2.0. There are things I'd planned since v1 to make public so anyone could use them.

Today is the first one.

What is a skill?

A skill is an instruction manual you give to an AI agent.

Without the manual, the agent knows how to do general things. With the manual, it knows how to do something specific. In this case: query data from the Chilean electrical system directly from Infotecnica.

Why I made it public

Querying Infotecnica is something many teams do in their daily work. As more teams start using agents in their workflow — Claude Code, for example — this skill will be useful to them.

The other reason is simpler: I believe it's important to contribute to the country's progress in AI and energy. AI requires more energy. If as a country we're able to generate more and better, it's good for everyone.

Use cases

Don Nelson uses it constantly. I think for a power flow study, it uses it at least 50 times per cycle. To run a simulation it needs real system parameters — line resistance, impedances, transformer data. Without that data, the simulation is useless.

For example, to update the model with real data from a line:

The repository is here: github.com/valdivia-tech/infotecnica-skill

If you want to use it, just copy the repo link and tell your agent to install the skill. That simple.

What's next

This is the first piece of harness 2.0 that I'm making public. More are on the way — including the agent that handles communication with DIgSILENT.

If you work in energy or you're building agents and find it useful, use it. If you find any issues or have ideas to improve it, open an issue on the repo or reach out directly.
