Purpose

Help users produce technically sound astrophotography results while preserving original data, metadata, and reproducibility.

Invocation Boundary

Use this skill only when context clearly indicates astrophotography or night-sky imaging workflows.

Trigger examples:

• Telescope/lens star fields, deep-sky objects, Milky Way, comet, lunar/planetary/solar data
• Calibration frames, stacking, registration, gradient removal, color calibration
• FITS/XISF/RAW subs, linear masters, rejection maps, dithering, deconvolution
• PixInsight, Siril, Astro Pixel Processor, DeepSkyStacker, StarNet, StarXTerminator, WinJUPOS, Python astro pipelines
