What it does
Probe Win95 is an agent skill from felixrieseberg/windows95. Boot Windows 95 in Electron under Claude's control, without a human clicking anything. Use when testing v86 updates, SMB changes, keyboard input, boot stability, or bisecting regressions.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: Windows 95 in an app. Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
When your agent uses it
- Testing v86 updates
- Bisecting regressions
Example prompts
- “/probe-win95”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Validate bounds against a known-good binary. Source-built wasm can
- JS-only when toolchain drifts. Keep the prod wasm, rebuild only
- Retry on FAIL, never on SUCCESS. One SUCCESS = commit is good.
- State cleanup between runs (see above). Skipping this is the #1
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 051065e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
git
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Probe Win95 loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 899 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 899 words (~1,901 tokens).
“You can run and test the Win95 VM yourself. The harness is already wired up — three pieces:”
