Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to medium
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 →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00036 | $0.03580 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00014 | $0.01432 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00716 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00358 |
Grade A, and why
using-git-worktrees 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.

Using Git Worktrees
Overview
Ensure work happens in an isolated workspace. Prefer your platform's native worktree tools. Fall back to manual git worktrees only when no native tool is available.
Core principle: Detect existing isolation first. Then use native tools. Then fall back to git. Never fight the harness.
Announce at start: "I'm using the using-git-worktrees skill to set up an isolated workspace."
Step 0: Detect Existing Isolation
Before creating anything, check if you are already in an isolated workspace.
GIT_DIR=$(cd "$(git rev-parse --git-dir)" 2>/dev/null && pwd -P)
GIT_COMMON=$(cd "$(git rev-parse --git-common-dir)" 2>/dev/null && pwd -P)
BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)
Submodule guard: GIT_DIR != GIT_COMMON is also true inside git submodules. Before concluding "already in a worktree," verify you are not in a submodule:
# If this returns a path, you're in a submodule, not a worktree — treat as normal repo
git rev-parse --show-superproject-working-tree 2>/dev/null
If GIT_DIR != GIT_COMMON (and not a submodule): You are already in a linked worktree. Skip to Step 3 (Project Setup). Do NOT create another worktree.
Report with branch state:
- On a branch: "Already in isolated workspace at
<path>on branch<name>." - Detached HEAD: "Already in isolated workspace at
<path>(detached HEAD, externally managed). Branch creation needed at finish time."
If GIT_DIR == GIT_COMMON (or in a submodule): You are in a normal repo checkout.
Has the user already indicated their worktree preference in your instructions? If not, ask for consent before creating a worktree:
"Would you like me to set up an isolated worktree? It protects your current branch from changes."
Honor any existing declared preference without asking. If the user declines consent, work in place and skip to Step 3.
Step 1: Create Isolated Workspace
You have two mechanisms. Try them in this order.
1a. Native Worktree Tools (preferred)
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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 357 lines · 36 tokens per session scan A 0941d2633846
using-git-worktrees is a skill published in the GitHub repository LIDR-academy/lidr-specboot (90 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 3,580 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

merge-batch
Prepare and merge an owner-selected PR batch with contributor credit and exact-candidate admission. Use for a pasted PR list; combined focused validation is diagnostic, and every actual landing still requires its applicable checks and authorization.

Creates professional git commits following conventional-commits format. Trigger: When creating commits, after completing code changes, when user asks to commit.
gh-auth-isolation
Safely manage multiple GitHub identities (EMU + personal) in agent workflows.
comet-github
A routing guide for Comet-related GitHub work. It directs requests about pull requests, issues, CI failures, ideas, and fixes to the appropriate review or implementation process.
github-skill
Work with GitHub via the gh CLI — clone repositories, create/list/merge pull requests, create/list issues, and run any other gh command (API calls, workflow runs, releases, repo administration). List operations return parsed JSON.
release-helper
Ensures configuration and code changes are released correctly. Use PROACTIVELY whenever you edit config.json, change any setting, or fix a configuration bug in this project, so the change reaches production.
