- Writing or debugging a PowerShell script, function, module, or one-liner.
- Writing or debugging a CMD.exe command or `.bat`/`.cmd` script.
- Deciding whether to use PowerShell or CMD for a task.
- Windows system administration: services, processes, event logs, registry, scheduled tasks, networking, users/groups.
- Active Directory, WMI/CIM, group policy, or IIS administration.
- Windows file system operations, ACLs, paths, environment variables, or PATH management.
- PowerShell execution policy, UAC elevation, remoting, or WinRM.
- Converting a bash/Linux command to PowerShell or CMD.

## Scope and anti-goals

**In scope:**
- PowerShell 5.1 / 7+ and CMD/Batch command generation.
- Local Windows system administration: files, services, processes, registry, event logs, scheduled tasks, networking, environment variables, ACLs, UAC/elevation, execution policy.
- Converting common bash idioms to PowerShell/CMD.

**Out of scope (do not use this skill for):**
