repo-init

repo-init is a skill for Claude Code from urmzd/dotfiles. It costs 107 tokens per session (752 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A project-starting workflow that creates and prepares a new GitHub repository, a hosted home for code and collaboration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting a project from zero and needing a pushed repository with CI, release configuration, language setup, a README, and contribution or security templates.
Why use it?
It gathers the initial repository, license, development setup, automation, documentation, and community files into one bootstrap process.

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-init 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 6d 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.

What it actually says

Repo Init

Bootstrap a complete repository from zero to pushed.

Steps

  1. Create GitHub repo: gh repo create <name> --<visibility> --description "<description>" --clone (default public).

  2. Add LICENSE: Create an Apache-2.0 LICENSE file in the repo root.

  3. Scaffold: If a language is specified, invoke scaffold-project (which dispatches to scaffold-<lang>) to produce:

    • CI workflow (.github/workflows/ci.yml) and release workflow (.github/workflows/release.yml); see setup-ci.
    • sr.yaml for semantic release; see sync-release.
    • Task runner native to the language (npm scripts, Makefile, cargo, justfile for Python).
    • .envrc via the setup-devenv direnv pattern (vanilla direnv + per-language version manager, not a Nix dev shell).
    • Language-specific config (Cargo.toml, go.mod, pyproject.toml, package.json, etc.).
  4. Community health: Invoke community-health to add CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, SECURITY.md, .github/pull_request_template.md, and .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ (bug report, feature request, config). Substitute {OWNER}, {REPO}, {CURRENT_MAJOR}, and {CHECK_COMMAND} placeholders. For a brand-new pre-1.0 project, set {CURRENT_MAJOR} to 0 and rewrite the SECURITY.md supported-versions table to 0.x Yes / < 0.x No.

  5. README: Generate a README with the repo name, description, and standard badge layout.

  6. Set metadata: gh repo edit --add-topic <topics> --description "<description>" with relevant topics for the language/type.

  7. Initial commit and push:

    • git add -A (safe here since it's a brand new repo)
    • git commit -m "chore: initial project scaffold"
    • git push -u origin main
  8. Report: Show the repo URL.

Rules

  • Default to Apache-2.0 license.
  • Default to public visibility.
  • If no language is specified, create a minimal repo with just LICENSE, README, and .gitignore.
  • Use conventional commits for the initial commit.

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.
