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/'you-might-not-need-an-effect' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'you-might-not-need-an-effect' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named you-might-not-need-an-effect already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/tamarillo-ai/theta' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '08c084f718b2b842cd53622ce0b1a1fb2888ccef' -- 'test/cast-fixtures/codex-cli/regression/5chan/.codex/skills/you-might-not-need-an-effect' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'test/cast-fixtures/codex-cli/regression/5chan/.codex/skills/you-might-not-need-an-effect' ~/.agents/skills/'you-might-not-need-an-effect' && 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/'you-might-not-need-an-effect' ~/.claude/skills/'you-might-not-need-an-effect' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
