I just released a new fun skill inspired by one I saw pop up online for Alexa: the Monster Scanner!

For kids who might be a little spooked by monsters under the bed, you can ask your assistant to do a quick monster scan and reassure the child that there are no monsters.

If you’re a monster yourself, you can configure the “scary” setting to True and sometimes the assistant will detect a monster. How dare you. 😉

[GitHub - mikejgray/skill-monster-scanner](https://github.com/mikejgray/skill-monster-scanner) and on pypi as skill-monster-scanner!

Please feel free to open issues, provide feedback, contribute, etc. You can reach me here or [on Matrix](https://matrix.to/#/#ovos-skills:matrix.org).

Ok, I don’t have kids, but I love the idea of such an app. Huge thank you Mike.

I’m glad you enjoy it! Even if it was intended for one purpose, if you enjoy it for another then it’s also for that purpose. 🙂
