95 / 100 · Low risk

Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Investigate how code reached its current state — when a line, function, import, or whole file was changed or deleted, who removed it, and what it looked like before. Use when `git blame` came up empty, when content has been refactored away, or when you need the full evolution of a function across commits.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'git-archaeology' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'git-archaeology' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named git-archaeology already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/alexhawat/mergeCraft' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '7804871dda7f77ef7c5ebebe01c1dcddbebc26bf' -- 'src/mergecraft/skills/git-archaeology' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'src/mergecraft/skills/git-archaeology' ~/.agents/skills/'git-archaeology' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'git-archaeology' ~/.claude/skills/'git-archaeology' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
