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

Safely add a directory to Claude Code's Bash tool PATH. Use when a binary runs in your terminal but is "command not found" inside Claude Code's Bash tool, when adding a directory to PATH for Claude Code, when configuring CLAUDE_ENV_FILE, or when settings.json env.PATH did not work. Explains why env.PATH replaces rather than appends PATH and is not variable-expanded, why ~/.zshrc PATH exports are dropped, and the supported SessionStart hook fix.

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/'bash-tool-path' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'bash-tool-path' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named bash-tool-path already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/drn/dots' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '7a7290cea5cfd5685091da560c48ab5ca9854295' -- 'agents/skills/bash-tool-path' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'agents/skills/bash-tool-path' ~/.agents/skills/'bash-tool-path' && 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/'bash-tool-path' ~/.claude/skills/'bash-tool-path' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
