What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'pragmatic-programmer' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'pragmatic-programmer' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named pragmatic-programmer already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/roohe/agentic-super-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'f483e54f3ad5f202a77d45f2e57f8d970b71195f' -- 'skills_library/pragmatic-programmer' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills_library/pragmatic-programmer' ~/.agents/skills/'pragmatic-programmer' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'pragmatic-programmer' ~/.claude/skills/'pragmatic-programmer' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
