What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the process of downloading NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) and saving it along with metadata, eliminating manual image retrieval and data entry.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated APOD retrieval: Fetches the latest image and associated title, date, and description.
  • Local archival: Saves the high‑resolution image and a metadata file to a chosen folder (default: ~/Desktop/APOD).
  • Robust handling: Detects if APOD is a video and reports it without downloading; overwrites existing files if needed.

Quick Start

Use the apod skill to download NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day. Run the script to fetch today's image and save the metadata to disk.
