Control timeBuzzer hardware LED via MIDI — set color, effects (pulse, strobe, rainbow, fade), and semantic status signals.

  • The user asks to change the buzzer LED color
  • SKILL.md covers Requirements, Script, Protocol details and Syncing with Hue
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python3 and pip
  • Signal status through the buzzer

What it does

Timebuzzer Led is an agent skill from glebis/claude-skills. Control timeBuzzer hardware LED via MIDI — set color, effects (pulse, strobe, rainbow, fade), and semantic status signals. Use when the user asks to change the buzzer LED color, signal status through the buzzer, or sync the buzzer with other lighting.

Its SKILL.md is about 720 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `README.md` and `scripts/buzzer_led.py`).

The repository describes itself as: Collection of Claude Code skills for enhanced AI workflows. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to change the buzzer LED color
  • Signal status through the buzzer
  • Sync the buzzer with other lighting

Example prompts

  • “/timebuzzer-led”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7524dff. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3
    • pip

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, 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

Timebuzzer Led loads about 720 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 67 tokens; SKILL.md has 163 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~67
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~720

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

timeBuzzer LED

Control the timeBuzzer hardware LED over MIDI. The device has 3 RGB segments controllable independently or together.

Requirements

  • timeBuzzer device connected via USB-C
  • python-rtmidi installed (pip install python-rtmidi)
  • timeBuzzer app may be running (MIDI port is shared)

Script

Single CLI: scripts/buzzer_led.py

Color commands
bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py color red
python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py color --hex "#FF8800"
python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py rgb 255 100 0
python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py off

Named colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, magenta, pink, white, warm, off.

Effects
bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py pulse blue --bpm 30 --seconds 5
python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py strobe red --count 5 --interval 0.15
python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py rainbow --seconds 5
python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py fade warm --seconds 2
Status signals (parallel to hue skill)

Per-segment control

python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py segment 2 0 0 255   # seg 2 blue

Protocol details

  • USB MIDI device (vendor 0x16D0, product 0x1170)
  • Sends/receives MIDI CC on channel 12 (status byte 187/0xBB)
  • LED output: CC 70-78 for 3 segments x 3 channels (R, G, B)
  • Values: 0-127 (half of standard 0-255 RGB)
  • The timeBuzzer app controls LED based on active project color; this script overrides it directly

Syncing with Hue

Use the same signal vocabulary as the hue skill. Example combined command:

bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/timebuzzer-led/scripts/buzzer_led.py signal success &
python3 ~/.claude/skills/hue/scripts/hue.py signal success --group 1
