75 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a devops skill usually runs commands, installs tools and uses cloud credentials.
This skill covers implementing Gitleaks for detecting and preventing hardcoded secrets in git repositories. It addresses configuring pre-commit hooks, CI/CD pipeline integration, custom rule authoring for organization-specific secrets, baseline management for existing repositories, and remediation workflows for exposed credentials.

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/'implementing-secret-scanning-with-gitleaks' ~/.claude/skills/'implementing-secret-scanning-with-gitleaks' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
