hydra-head

This is a guidance skill. Provides best practices and templates. For execution, use hydra-head-operator.

When to use

• Setting up or operating hydra-node
• Understanding Hydra Head lifecycle
• Debugging connectivity or configuration issues

Operating rules (must follow)

• Confirm network (mainnet/preprod/preview/devnet)
• Use hydra.family docs as source of truth
• Never execute—only provide guidance
• Treat all .sk files as secrets

Docker fallback mode

If hydra-node is not installed locally, use the wrapper script in this skill folder to run hydra-node inside Docker (Hydra upstream recommends Docker images for quickest start).
