Remote Compute Modal
DevOps & Securityremote-compute-modalRemote Compute Modal is an Agent Skill for devops & security published in the companion-inc/feynman repository on GitHub: a SKILL.md instruction file an AI agent can load to do this task.
Dispatch Feynman research notebook or experiment jobs to Modal. Use when a task has explicitly chosen Modal for bounded cloud compute, GPU jobs, or reproducible remote execution.
QUICK START
How to use this skill
Bring this guide into your coding agent with a prompt tailored to the tool you use.
- Open your project in Codex.
- Copy and paste the prompt below.
- Review files and risks before approving any action.
Prompt to paste
Inspect the Agent Skill at https://github.com/companion-inc/feynman/blob/HEAD/skills/remote-compute-modal/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/remote-compute-modal, but wait for my approval before writing files or running scripts.
Copying this prompt does not install or run the skill. Review third-party files before use.
Remote Compute: Modal
Use this skill only after Modal is the chosen execution route.
Workflow:
- Verify Modal credentials and CLI availability through Feynman Settings or a non-secret CLI check.
- Keep the job bounded: inputs, package installs, hardware, timeout, and expected artifacts must be explicit.
- Submit through Feynman's notebook Modal path or a recorded Modal script.
- Save remote URL/handle, command, stdout/stderr, returned artifacts, and environment snapshot.
- Stop, retry, or mark failed jobs through the workbench compute lifecycle instead of hiding failures.
Do not use Modal for unrelated hosting or indefinite services from this skill.
