Capabilities ops

Software v1.35.0 ships capabilities doctor, status, printable matrix export, and kit. Use this before first field day so the team agrees what the node may do. Not free commercial broadband.

Honest rails

Open decode, open corpora, unlicensed mesh, optional amateur by operator affirmation. Never commercial constellation decrypt or default satellite uplink. Not free Starlink.

Operator commands

# Legal onboarding readiness
python -m skycache capabilities doctor

# Full matrix + banned list (JSON)
python -m skycache capabilities status

# Printable HTML (browser -> Save as PDF)
python -m skycache capabilities export --out data/ops/capabilities-matrix.html

# USB / wall kit
python -m skycache capabilities kit --out data/capabilities-kit

Onboarding workflow

  1. Set legal_rf_mode for this site (receive_only, ism_mesh, ...)
  2. capabilities doctor until go_capabilities_onboard
  3. Change default admin PIN for go_capabilities_field
  4. Print matrix; read banned list aloud with maintainers
  5. Archive kit zip with partner pilot files
