Use this skill when building ROS1 nodes, packages, launch files, or debugging ROS1 systems. Trigger whenever the user mentions ROS1, catkin, rospy, roscpp, roslaunch, roscore, ro","description":"# ROS1 Development Skill\n\n## When to Use This Skill\n- Building or maintaining ROS1 packages and nodes\n- Writing launch files, message types, or services\n- Debugging ROS1 communication (topics, services, actions)\n- Configuring catkin workspaces and build systems\n- Working with tf/tf2 transforms, URDF, or robot models\n- Using actionlib for long-running tasks\n- Optimizing nodelets for zero-copy transport\n- Planning ROS1 → ROS2 migration\n\n## Core Architecture Principles\n\n### 1. Node Design\n\n**Single Responsibility Nodes**: Each node should do ONE thing well. Resist the temptation to build monolithic \"do-everything\" nodes.\n\n```python\n# BAD: Monolithic node\nclass RobotNode:\n    def __init__(self):\n        self.sub_camera = rospy.Subscriber('/camera/image', Image, self.camera_cb)\n        self.sub_lidar = rospy.Subscriber('/lidar/points', PointCloud2, self.lidar_cb)\n        self.pub_cmd = rospy.Publisher('/cmd_vel', Twist, queue_size=10)\n        self.pub_map = rospy.Publisher('/map', OccupancyGrid, queue_size=1)\n        # This node does perception, planning, AND control\n\n# GOOD: Decomposed nodes\nclass PerceptionNode:    # Fuses sensor data → publishes /obstacles\nclass PlannerNode:       # Subscribes /obstacles → publishes /path\nclass ControllerNode:    # Subscribes /path → publishes /cmd_vel\n```\n\n**Node Initialization Pattern**:\n```python\n#!/usr/bin/env python\nimport rospy\nfrom std_msgs.msg import String\n\nclass MyNode:\n    def __init__(self):\n        rospy.init_node('my_node', anonymous=False)\n\n        # 1. Load parameters FIRST\n        self.rate = rospy.get_param('~rate', 10.0)\n        self.frame_id = rospy.get_param('~frame_id', 'base_link')\n\n        # 2. Set up publishers BEFORE subscribers\n        #    (prevents callbacks firing before publisher is ready)\n        self.pub = rospy.Publisher('~output', String, queue_size=10)\n\n        # 3. Set up subscribers LAST\n        self.sub = rospy.Subscriber('~input', String, self.callback)\n\n        rospy.loginfo(f\"[{rospy.get_name()}] Initialized with rate={self.rate}\")\n\n    def callback(self, msg):\n        # Process and republish\n        result = String(data=msg.data.upper())\n        self.pub.publish(result)\n\n    def run(self):\n        rate = rospy.Rate(self.rate)\n        while not rospy.is_shutdown():\n            # Periodic work here\n            rate.sleep()\n\nif __name__ == '__main__':\n    try:\n        node = MyNode()\n        node.run()\n    except rospy.ROSInterruptException:\n        pass\n```\n\n### 2. Topic Design\n\n**Naming Conventions**:\n```\n/robot_name/sensor_type/data_type\n\n# Examples:\n/ur5/joint_states              # Robot joint states\n/realsense/color/image_raw     # Camera color image\n/realsense/depth/points        # Depth point cloud\n/mobile_base/cmd_vel           # Velocity commands\n/gripper/command               # Gripper commands\n```\n\n**Queue Sizes Matter**:\n```python\n# For sensor data (high frequency, OK to drop old messages):\nrospy.Subscriber('/camera/image', Image, self.cb, queue_size=1)\n\n# For commands (don't want to miss any):\nrospy.Publisher('/cmd_vel', Twist, queue_size=10)\n\n# For large data (point clouds, images) - use small queues to prevent memory bloat:\nrospy.Subscriber('/lidar/points', PointCloud2, self.cb, queue_size=1)\n\n# NEVER use queue_size=0 (infinite) for high-frequency topics\n# This WILL cause memory leaks under load\n```\n\n**Latched Topics** for data that changes infrequently:\n```python\n# Robot description, static maps, calibration data\npub = rospy.Publisher('/robot_description', String, queue_size=1, latch=True)\n```\n\n### 3. Launch File Best Practices\n\n```xml\n<launch>\n  <!-- ALWAYS use args for configurability -->\n  <arg name=\"robot_name\" default=\"ur5\"/>\n  <arg name=\"sim\" default=\"false\"/>\n  <arg name=\"debug\" default=\"false\"/>\n\n  <!-- Group by subsystem with namespaces -->\n  <group ns=\"$(arg robot_name)\">\n\n    <!-- Conditional loading based on sim vs real -->\n    <group if=\"$(arg sim)\">\n      <include file=\"$(find my_pkg)/launch/sim_drivers.launch\"/>\n    </group>\n    <group unless=\"$(arg sim)\">\n      <include file=\"$(find my_pkg)/launch/real_drivers.launch\"/>\n    </group>\n\n    <!-- Node with proper remapping -->\n    <node pkg=\"my_pkg\" type=\"perception_node.py\" name=\"perception\"\n          output=\"screen\" respawn=\"true\" respawn_delay=\"5\">\n      <param name=\"rate\" value=\"30.0\"/>\n      <param name=\"frame_id\" value=\"$(arg robot_name)_base_link\"/>\n      <remap from=\"~input_image\" to=\"/$(arg robot_name)/camera/image_raw\"/>\n      <remap from=\"~output_detections\" to=\"detections\"/>\n      <!-- Load a YAML param file -->\n      <rosparam file=\"$(find my_pkg)/config/perception.yaml\" command=\"load\"/>\n    </node>\n\n  </group>\n\n  <!-- Debug tools (conditionally loaded) -->\n  <group if=\"$(arg debug)\">\n    <node pkg=\"rviz\" type=\"rviz\" name=\"rviz\"\n          args=\"-d $(find my_pkg)/rviz/debug.rviz\"/>\n    <node pkg=\"rqt_graph\" type=\"rqt_graph\" name=\"rqt_graph\"/>\n  </group>\n</launch>\n```\n\n### 4. TF Transform Tree\n\n**Rules**:\n- Every frame has EXACTLY one parent (tree, not graph)\n- Static transforms use `static_transform_publisher`\n- Dynamic transforms publish at consistent rates\n- ALWAYS set timestamps correctly\n\n```python\nimport tf2_ros\n\n# Publishing transforms\nbr = tf2_ros.TransformBroadcaster()\nt = TransformStamped()\nt.header.stamp = rospy.Time.now()  # CRITICAL: Use current time\nt.header.frame_id = \"odom\"\nt.child_frame_id = \"base_link\"\nt.transform.translation.x = x\nt.transform.translation.y = y\nt.transform.rotation = quaternion_from_euler(0, 0, theta)\nbr.sendTransform(t)\n\n# Listening for transforms (with timeout and exception handling)\ntf_buffer = tf2_ros.Buffer()\nlistener = tf2_ros.TransformListener(tf_buffer)\n\ntry:\n    trans = tf_buffer.lookup_transform(\n        'map', 'base_link',\n        rospy.Time(0),          # Get latest available\n        rospy.Duration(1.0)     # Wait up to 1 second\n    )\nexcept (tf2_ros.LookupException,\n        tf2_ros.ConnectivityException,\n        tf2_ros.ExtrapolationException) as e:\n    rospy.logwarn(f\"TF lookup failed: {e}\")\n```\n\n### 5. Actionlib for Long-Running Tasks\n\n```python\nimport actionlib\nfrom my_msgs.msg import PickPlaceAction, PickPlaceGoal, PickPlaceResult\n\n# Server\nclass PickPlaceServer:\n    def __init__(self):\n        self.server = actionlib.SimpleActionServer(\n            'pick_place',\n            PickPlaceAction,\n            execute_cb=self.execute,\n            auto_start=False  # ALWAYS set auto_start=False\n        )\n        self.server.start()\n\n    def execute(self, goal):\n        feedback = PickPlaceFeedback()\n\n        # Check for preemption INSIDE your loop\n        for step in self.plan_steps(goal):\n            if self.server.is_preempt_requested():\n                self.server.set_preempted()\n                return\n            self.execute_step(step)\n            feedback.progress = step.progress\n            self.server.publish_feedback(feedback)\n\n        result = PickPlaceResult(success=True)\n        self.server.set_succeeded(result)\n```\n\n## Common Pitfalls & Failure Modes\n\n### Time Synchronization\n```python\n# BAD: Comparing timestamps from different clocks\nif camera_msg.header.stamp == lidar_msg.header.stamp:  # Almost never true\n\n# GOOD: Use message_filters for approximate time sync\nimport message_filters\nsub_cam = message_filters.Subscriber('/camera/image', Image)\nsub_lidar = message_filters.Subscriber('/lidar/points', PointCloud2)\nsync = message_filters.ApproximateTimeSynchronizer(\n    [sub_cam, sub_lidar], queue_size=10, slop=0.05  # 50ms tolerance\n)\nsync.registerCallback(self.synced_callback)\n```\n\n### Callback Threading\n```python\n# ROS1 uses a single-threaded spinner by default.\n# Long-running callbacks BLOCK all other callbacks.\n\n# BAD:\ndef callback(self, msg):\n    result = self.expensive_computation(msg)  # Blocks for 2 seconds!\n    self.pub.publish(result)\n\n# GOOD: Use a MultiThreadedSpinner or process in a separate thread\nrospy.init_node('my_node')\n# ... setup ...\nspinner = rospy.MultiThreadedSpinner(num_threads=4)\nspinner.spin()\n\n# Or use a processing thread:\nimport threading, queue\nclass MyNode:\n    def __init__(self):\n        self.work_queue = queue.Queue(maxsize=1)\n        self.worker = threading.Thread(target=self._process_loop, daemon=True)\n        self.worker.start()\n\n    def callback(self, msg):\n        try:\n            self.work_queue.put_nowait(msg)  # Non-blocking\n        except queue.Full:\n            pass  # Drop old data\n\n    def _process_loop(self):\n        while not rospy.is_shutdown():\n            msg = self.work_queue.get()\n            result = self.expensive_computation(msg)\n            self.pub.publish(result)\n```\n\n### Parameter Server Anti-Patterns\n```python\n# BAD: Hardcoded values\nself.threshold = 0.5\n\n# BAD: Global params without namespace\nself.threshold = rospy.get_param('threshold', 0.5)  # Collides across nodes\n\n# GOOD: Private params with defaults\nself.threshold = rospy.get_param('~threshold', 0.5)\n\n# GOOD: Dynamic reconfigure for runtime tuning\nfrom dynamic_reconfigure.server import Server\nfrom my_pkg.cfg import MyNodeConfig\nself.dyn_server = Server(MyNodeConfig, self.dyn_callback)\n```\n\n## Nodelets for Zero-Copy Transport\n\nWhen nodes exchange large data (images, point clouds) within the same process, nodelets eliminate serialization overhead:\n\n```cpp\n// my_nodelet.h\n#include <nodelet/nodelet.h>\n#include <pluginlib/class_list_macros.h>\n\nclass MyNodelet : public nodelet::Nodelet {\n  virtual void onInit() {\n    ros::NodeHandle& nh = getNodeHandle();\n    ros::NodeHandle& pnh = getPrivateNodeHandle();\n    // Use shared_ptr for zero-copy: pass pointers, not copies\n    pub_ = nh.advertise<sensor_msgs::Image>(\"output\", 1);\n    sub_ = nh.subscribe(\"input\", 1, &MyNodelet::callback, this);\n  }\n};\nPLUGINLIB_EXPORT_CLASS(MyNodelet, nodelet::Nodelet)\n```\n\n## Package

`rospy` → `rclpy`, `roscpp` → `rclcpp`\n- `catkin_make` → `colcon build`\n- `roslaunch` XML → ROS2 Python launch files\n- Global parameter server → Per-node parameters\n- `rospy.Rate` → `node.create_timer()`\n- Single `roscore` → DDS discovery (no central master)\n- `message_filters` works in both, but API differs\n- Custom messages: same `.msg` format, different build system\n- Nodelets → ROS2 Components (intra-process communication)\n- `dynamic_reconfigure` → ROS2 parameters with callbacks\n\nStart migration from leaf nodes (sensors, actuators) and work inward.\nUse the `ros1_bridge` package to run both stacks simultaneously during transition.","tags":["ros1","robotics","agent","skills","arpitg1304","agent-skills","ai-coding-assistant","claude-skills"],"capabilities":["skill","source-arpitg1304","skill-ros1","topic-agent-skills","topic-ai-coding-assistant","topic-claude-skills","topic-robotics"],"categories":["robotics-agent-skills"],"synonyms":[],"warnings":[],"endpointUrl":"https://skills.sh/arpitg1304/robotics-agent-skills/ros1","protocol":"skill","transport":"skills-sh","auth":{"type":"none","details":{"cli":"npx
