To quickly get your robot standing in place, take the following steps:

1. Record a standing position using the record functionality:

python examples/play_record_example.py record --ip YOUR_ROBOT_IP --skill-name standing

2. When prompted, physically move your robot into a stable standing position. The process will be:

   • Press Ctrl+C to start recording
   • Hold the robot steady in the standing position for a few seconds
     • Note that all actuators will be disabled, so it will be completely limp
   • Press Ctrl+C again to stop recording

3. Play back the recorded standing position:

python examples/play_record_example.py play --ip YOUR_ROBOT_IP --file standing.json

This will create a basic standing skill that you can use as a foundation for more complex movements. See the examples directory for more advanced skill demonstrations.
