Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned cin12211/orca-q at 3142fe610b.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables an AI agent to act as an advanced Git expert, providing deep practical knowledge of version control workflows, conflict resolution, and repository management based on current best practices. It can analyze repository state, adapt its approach based on existing strategies, and apply appropriate solutions for efficient code collaboration. When the issue requires specialized expertise like CI/CD or security scanning, it will recommend using other subagents instead.

When to use it

  • Resolving merge conflicts in a Git repository.
  • Implementing or adjusting branching strategies (GitFlow, GitHub Flow, GitLab Flow).
  • Understanding and managing repository configuration and hooks.
  • Diagnosing issues related to repository integrity or synchronization with remote repositories.
  • When you need expert advice on Git workflows but the problem involves CI/CD pipelines or security scanning – it will recommend appropriate alternative subagents.

Key capabilities

  • Comprehensive analysis of repository state using git commands and internal tools.
  • Adaptation to existing branching strategies (GitFlow, GitHub Flow, GitLab Flow).
  • Conflict resolution patterns including manual merging, preference for "ours" or "theirs" changes, and merging without auto-commit.
  • Identification and implementation of branching strategy workflows.
  • Validation of repository integrity and synchronization status.

Example prompts

  • “I’m encountering merge conflicts; can you help me resolve them?”
  • “How do I implement a GitFlow workflow in this repository?”
  • "What is the current state of my repository?"
  • "Can you check if there are any uncommitted changes or conflicts?"

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill prioritizes performance by using internal tools first, falling back to shell commands when necessary.
  • Always create backups before performing destructive operations on a Git repository.
  • If the issue requires specialized CI/CD expertise (e.g., GitHub Actions), the agent will recommend switching to the github-actions-expert subagent and stop its own processing.
