Skills and tools

An agent is only as good as what it knows how to do. Each skill below is a folder of instructions, its own data and small, tested scripts, written for Indian audiences: Hinglish, Hindi, lakh and crore, RERA and the rest. The agents load the skill they need at each stage.

We will publish them as an open-source Claude plugin under the MIT licence once they have run on our own channels.

Colony router

Every stage

live

Knows the nine stages from idea to post and sends each task to the right skill.

How: Reads shared channel files so no decision is made twice.

CEO plan

Idea

live

Lays out the week's posts across every channel without exceeding what the board can review, and writes decisions with a recommendation and dissent.

How: A deterministic slot planner, then researched topics per slot.

Hinglish hooks

Script

live

Writes opening lines in English, Hindi or Hinglish from our own formulas, filled only with sourced facts.

How: A weakest-link scorer checks length, specificity, tension, honesty, evidence and script.

Hinglish voice

Voice

live

Prepares narration for Indian text-to-speech: ₹45,00,000 becomes forty-five lakh rupees, brand names are said right, Hindi voices get Devanagari.

How: A pronunciation lexicon that grows; unknown words go to a person, never guessed.

Indic captions

Edit

live

Word-by-word captions that never split a word or a Hindi letter cluster, so a matra never sits alone.

How: Measures lines in visible clusters, not characters.

Sound library

Sound

live

Finds music and stings, times them so the accent lands on the cut, and blocks export of anything not cleared.

How: A hash-chained rights ledger: editing any past entry breaks the chain and stops every export.

Compliance packs

Check

live

Checks every piece against RERA advertising rules, SEBI education-only rules, ASCI labels, AI labelling, platform originality and DPDP consent.

How: Rules with their sources; a block stops the piece before it reaches the board.

Channel analyst

After

live

Ranks each post against its own channel's median and learns which hooks work.

How: Official analytics APIs only; no scraping.

Festival kit

Idea

planned

Festival dates by state, greetings, motifs and sounds, reviewed for culture.

How: Curated data, reviewed by a person.

Colony projector

Public view

in the runtime

Turns the colony's private event log into the public one you watch: whitelisted fields only.

How: Built into the colony runtime.
