daemon-command-extension

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps developers extend the AutomateLinux daemon by adding new commands, enabling richer automation capabilities and customization of the daemon's behavior.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Define new command signatures: Add command names and required parameters to the central registry.
• Implement handlers: Write dispatcher logic to process the new command and generate a response.
• Register and test: Wire up the command in the signature and dispatcher arrays and verify via build and test workflows.

Quick Start

Create a new command by updating daemon/include/Constants.h, implement a handler in daemon/src/mainCommand.cpp, register the signature in COMMAND_REGISTRY, map the dispatcher in COMMAND_HANDLERS, then build and run tests (e.g., d send MyNewAction --param "value").
