FFT Farm Ops

Use this skill for farm state awareness and operational actions routed through the FFT_nano farm bridge.

When to use this skill

• Use for reading farm ledger state and alerts.
• Use for submitting allowlisted farm control actions through IPC.
• Use when main/admin chat requests operational farm actions.

When not to use this skill

• Do not use for onboarding/bootstrap tasks.
• Do not use outside main/admin chat for write/control actions.
• Do not use for actions outside the defined farm action allowlist.

Guardrails

• Never run destructive git commands unless explicitly requested.
• Preserve unrelated worktree changes.
• Keep write operations main-chat-only.
• Use main/admin chat only for any operational control action.
• Never run destructive shell commands against hosts, containers, or Home Assistant.

Read Farm State

• Primary status file: /workspace/farm-state/current.json
• Alert snapshot: /workspace/farm-state/alerts.json
• Device inventory: /workspace/farm-state/devices.json
• Calendar snapshot: /workspace/farm-state/calendar.json
• Time series: /workspace/farm-state/telemetry.ndjson

Read current.json first. Treat stale: true as degraded connectivity and avoid risky recommendations.

Submit Actions

Write request files into /workspace/ipc/actions/ with unique names like:

• act_<unix_ts>_<rand>.json

Request format:

{
  "type": "farm_action",
  "action": "ha_call_service",
  "params": {
    "domain": "switch",
    "service": "turn_on",
    "data": { "entity_id": "switch.irrigation_north" }
  },
  "requestId": "act_1707830400_abc"
}

Poll Action Results

Read /workspace/ipc/action_results/<requestId>.json until available.

Result format:

{
  "requestId": "act_1707830400_abc",
  "status": "success",
  "result": {},
  "executedAt": "2026-02-13T10:30:01Z"
}

If status is error, surface the exact error and propose the safest next step.

Action Allowlist

Only use allowlisted actions:

• ha_get_status
• ha_call_service
• ha_set_entity
• ha_restart
• ha_apply_dashboard
• ha_capture_screenshot
• ha_dashboard_get
• ha_dashboard_patch
• ha_dashboard_validate
• ha_canvas_get_spec
• ha_canvas_set_spec
• ha_canvas_patch_spec
• farm_state_refresh

Minimal Examples

{
  "type": "farm_action",
  "action": "ha_dashboard_patch",
  "params": {
    "dashboardFile": "/workspace/dashboard/ui-lovelace-staging.yaml",
    "operations": [
      { "op": "set_theme", "theme": "storm" }
    ]
  },
  "requestId": "act_1707830400_dash"
}

{
  "type": "farm_action",
  "action": "ha_canvas_patch_spec",
  "params": {
    "operations": [
      { "op": "set_title", "title": "Agent Canvas" }
    ]
  },
  "requestId": "act_1707830400_canvas"
}

Alert Interpretation

• Critical alerts: prioritize immediate stabilization actions and ask for confirmation before control changes.
• Warning alerts: recommend monitored corrective actions.
• Normal state: suggest optimization and preventative maintenance.
• Always include context from timeOfDay, season, and weather-related states.
