Audit and repair Gaia user-tree timelines so every skill's current rank is explained by a chain of Hero's Journey events. Trigger this skill when: a contributor's profile chart shows a stale rank (e.g. still shows 3★ after a demotion to 1★); someone asks to "trace what happened" to a skill's rank; `validate_timelines.py` is failing in CI; you need to backfill missing `demote` or `rank_up` events before cutting a release; a skill was reclassified or Star-Bar-reset and the user tree was never upd…

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/'gaia-trace-timeline' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'gaia-trace-timeline' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named gaia-trace-timeline already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/gaia-research/gaia-skill-tree' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '9b4d9b98043140188f00b14d0ac8fa6bc02491b7' -- '.agents/skills/gaia-trace-timeline' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'.agents/skills/gaia-trace-timeline' ~/.agents/skills/'gaia-trace-timeline' && 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/'gaia-trace-timeline' ~/.claude/skills/'gaia-trace-timeline' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
