repo-reset

repo-reset is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from rjwalters/kicad-tools. It costs 30 tokens per session (2,497 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Git cleanup tool that returns a repository to a clean starting point by reviewing branches, worktrees, and stashes, then syncing with the remote and switching to the default branch.

In plain words
What is it for?
It fetches remote updates, checks the working tree, and can optionally remove confirmed-safe stale branches and worktrees.
Why use it?
It reduces confusion from leftover task state while avoiding irreversible deletion unless explicitly enabled. Git is the version-control system used to track code changes.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: mentions Claude Code; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions Codex.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is Worktrees: 1 removed (../repo-wt-fix123).

Good fit It fetches remote updates, checks the working tree, and can optionally remove confirmed-safe stale branches and worktrees.

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

repo-reset 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 5d 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 — 220 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Codex form of the /repo:reset command. Other commands appear as $repo-<verb> skills. Helper scripts and .claude/ paths below are relative to the repository root and exist when the Claude Code surface is installed alongside this one.

$repo-reset — Back to Baseline

The end-of-task ritual: review and prune stale git state, sync with the remote, and land back on the default branch with a clean working tree. The reversible steps (fetch, land on the default branch) run by default; nothing irreversible — dropping a stash, deleting a branch or worktree — ever happens without an explicit opt-in and the permanent-loss check.

Usage

$repo-reset                    # Run the reversible baseline steps; keep all stashes, land on default
$repo-reset --ask              # Confirm each step before acting
$repo-reset --prune            # Also delete confirmed-safe branches/worktrees (after the loss check)

Two halves

The steps below split cleanly in two, and naming the split matters because callers can schedule the halves separately:

  • Sync-and-switch (reversible — steps 1 and 4): the working-tree safety check, git fetch --all --prune, and landing on an up-to-date default branch. Nothing is removed.
  • Pruning (gated — steps 2 and 3): stash review and branch/worktree review. These can permanently remove work, so they keep the explicit opt-in and the [[branches]] permanent-loss check.

Run standalone, $repo-reset always runs all four steps in order, exactly as documented — this split changes nothing here. It exists because [[all]] may run the sync-and-switch half early (before its Docs stage) when the current branch is fully pushed and behind the default branch, so that its doc stages don't edit a stale checkout; the pruning half still runs last there, with its gates intact.

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.
