ship-a-feature

82 / 100 · Low risk

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

Ship a NEW capability to vigiles so it actually reaches a user — a new export, public function, subpath, CLI flag, or hook-vocabulary word. Use when about to add, or having just added, a feature / export / public API to this repo. Runs the executable checks a green `npm run check` does NOT make — reachable from a public door, API-surface diff READ, a public doc home, the experimental_ decision, a gate on a frozen tree. NOT for bug fixes, refactors, doc-only or test-only edits.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

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

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'ship-a-feature' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'ship-a-feature' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named ship-a-feature already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/zernie/vigiles' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '1a1de50f62f5c1093a46455488dcf6e8157c6182' -- '.claude/skills/ship-a-feature' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'.claude/skills/ship-a-feature' ~/.agents/skills/'ship-a-feature' && 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/'ship-a-feature' ~/.claude/skills/'ship-a-feature' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
