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

Knip dead-code detector for JS/TS: unused files, deps, exports, types. Use when cleaning up codebases, finding dead exports, or enforcing dependency hygiene in CI.

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/'knip-dead-code' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'knip-dead-code' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named knip-dead-code already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/laurigates/claude-plugins' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '16af2dca8c1e706bab01e003bf03a7d19192b346' -- 'typescript-plugin/skills/knip-dead-code' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'typescript-plugin/skills/knip-dead-code' ~/.agents/skills/'knip-dead-code' && 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/'knip-dead-code' ~/.claude/skills/'knip-dead-code' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
