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

Use this skill when a working tree contains uncommitted changes that need to be split into a sequence of atomic commits — typically after a long session, an agent hand-off, a rebase resolution, or anytime `git status` shows mixed work that was not committed as it landed. The skill assumes the agent has fresh context and did not author most of the diff, so it treats the working tree as evidence to investigate before grouping. Optimizes for `git bisect`: each commit is the smallest buildable and …

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'atomic-commits' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'atomic-commits' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named atomic-commits already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/NickCrew/Claude-Cortex' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'bb47af79ad3befe01ae01940fcf5f16e30a1b6df' -- 'skills/atomic-commits' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/atomic-commits' ~/.agents/skills/'atomic-commits' && 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/'atomic-commits' ~/.claude/skills/'atomic-commits' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
