ring:shipping-changes

ring:shipping-changes is a skill for Claude Code, Cursor from LerianStudio/ring. It costs 86 tokens per session (2,275 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guided Git shipping workflow that takes a completed change through creating a branch, committing it, pushing it, and opening a pull request for review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a finished feature or fix needs to move from a working directory into a reviewed pull request.
Why use it?
It makes the steps for delivering a change explicit and requires a plan and confirmation before commands that modify the repository or publish work.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Tool Misuse · line 112
    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ring:shipping-changes scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 240 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

End-to-end shipping workflow: detect base branch and scope policy once, present a complete plan, then execute branch → commit → push → PR in sequence, confirming at each phase. Uses ring:committing-changes and ring:opening-pull-requests internally — their rules and anti-patterns apply in full.

⛔ HARD STOP — PRESENT PLAN BEFORE EXECUTING ANY MUTATING COMMAND

Read-only discovery commands (git fetch, git ls-remote, git status, git diff, git log) are allowed before approval — they are needed to build the plan.

MUST complete Phase 0 detection, analyze the current state, and present a complete plan to the user before running any mutating git or gh command (git checkout -b, git add, git commit, git push, gh pr create). Executing mutating commands without approval is FORBIDDEN.


Phase 0 — Detect Base Branch and Scope Policy

MUST complete both detections before analyzing changes or drafting anything. These values are resolved once and propagated to all subsequent phases.

0A — Detect Base Branch

# Probe A — GitHub API default (fallback: git remote show origin | grep 'HEAD branch' | awk '{print $NF}')
gh repo view --json defaultBranchRef --jq '.defaultBranchRef.name'

# Probe B — PR template hint: read .github/pull_request_template.md for explicit branch name

# Probe C — develop existence
git ls-remote --heads origin develop

Apply precedence in order — first match wins:

Priority Source Rule
1 — highest PR template Explicit branch name in .github/pull_request_template.md — overrides everything
2 develop + user Probe C finds develop AND differs from Probe A → ask user to confirm which target
3 — fallback GitHub API Use value from Probe A
4 Neither STOP — ask the user

Why not develop-first: a repo may have a stale develop branch while the real PR target is main. The GitHub API is the authoritative source; develop existence triggers a confirmation step instead of a silent assumption.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
