What problem does it solve? Designing a home or small-lab network without lockouts is hard when you must balance VLAN segmentation, local DNS, guest Wi-Fi, and remote access on consumer hardware. This Skill turns a hardware inventory and goals into a staged, reversible network plan. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Staged Topology Planning: Converts hardware inventory and goals into a smallest-useful-first design with later optional phases. - Safety-First Review: Checks VLAN, DNS, firewall, and VPN readiness with explicit rollback and management-access requirements before any disruptive change. - Structured Output: Produces a plan with hardware roles, capability checks, addressing tables, DNS/DHCP placement, firewall rules in plain English, and an implementation order. - Use Case: A user with a consumer router, one switch, and a NAS wants IoT isolation and ad blocking; the Skill maps what the hardware supports, proposes a safe VLAN and DNS rollout order, and defines recovery steps if access is lost. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to review your homelab hardware list and goals and produce a staged network plan with VLAN, DNS, and rollback details.
