What it does
Deposit Guard turns the move-in photos and lease already on your NAS into a dated, room-by-room evidence pack for getting your rental deposit back.
The problem
At move-out, landlords may claim damage that was already there. Two years later, the move-in photos sit among thousands of others, and the lease is in another folder. Finding them is a repetitive search-and-collect job, and misdated evidence is easy to dispute.
How it works
- The user says which home they are leaving and the move-out date.
- The Skill finds lease candidates and the user picks one.
- It extracts the address, dates, deposit amount and the repair and cleaning clauses, each with a page reference, or marks a field "not found".
- It collects move-in and move-out photos by date and shows the counts for confirmation.
- It labels photos by room, pairs each lease clause with that room's before and after photos, and lists the rooms it could not match.
- After approval it copies everything into one evidence folder and saves a summary. Originals are never moved or changed.
How it was built
One SKILL.md with three linked references, written for the UGOS Skill Creation Tool. It delegates to file-agent, document-agent, photo-agent and knowledge-agent, and each step uses the previous step's actual output. The tool's checker passes with 0 errors and 0 warnings.
Challenges
The hard part was deciding what the Skill must refuse to do. It quotes only what the lease says, never edits photos, writes only inside the evidence folder, and stops when a fact is missing.
What's next
Nothing has run on a NAS yet. Testing on a real UGREEN AI NAS comes next: page references, room labels, date accuracy and copy behavior. The pack supports a claim but is not legal advice.
