shell-shortcuts

shell-shortcuts is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wangyendt/wayne-skills. It costs 76 tokens per session (2,154 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of terminal shortcuts for Windows, macOS, and Ubuntu, including proxy toggles, saved directory jumps, NVIDIA GPU status, and optional Conda environment activation. A terminal is the text-based program used to run system and development commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when configuring a new computer, switching proxy settings, jumping to frequently used folders, checking an NVIDIA GPU, or automatically activating a Conda environment.
Why use it?
It avoids repeatedly typing setup commands and helps keep a developer's shell behavior consistent across machines.

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

shell-shortcuts 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 8d 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 — 238 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Shell Shortcuts (proxy_on, proxy_off, goto, gpu, conda autostart)

Goal: make a fresh machine behave the same across Windows / macOS / Ubuntu with a small set of commands:

  • proxy_on / proxy_off: toggle terminal proxy (env vars + Git global proxy)
  • goto: persistent path shortcuts (e.g. goto work)
  • gpu: show NVIDIA GPU status (nvidia-smi wrapper; Windows/Ubuntu only)
  • Optional: auto-activate a Conda env when a new shell starts

This skill is intentionally opinionated:

  • Prefer PowerShell on Windows for the full goto experience.
  • Keep everything idempotent by putting functions/scripts behind a clearly-marked block.

Defaults (edit as needed)

  • HTTP/HTTPS proxy: http://127.0.0.1:7890
  • SOCKS5 proxy: socks5://127.0.0.1:7890
  • NO_PROXY: localhost,127.0.0.1,.qualcomm.com,*.amazonaws.com

Edit your PowerShell profile: $PROFILE

Add (or replace) a block like below. The goto DB is $HOME\.goto_paths.json.
