keeping-git-repos-clean
From the author
Prevents, detects, and remediates files that should never be committed — secrets (.env, API tokens, hardcoded credentials) and dev artifacts (build output, scratch databases, editor/OS files). Covers .gitignore (and why it does not untrack), git rm --cached, auditing tracked files, history scrubbing, and credential rotation. Use when a repo has committed secrets or junk, when setting up a new repo's ignore rules, or when reviewing what a repo actually tracks.

Closest to this one by what they do and when they are used.
- concurrent-brancheskajisho5/ffmpeg-skillResolve conflicts and merges when several branches are open against one repo at the same time — the hotspot files every change must touch (registry manifests, a single version field, shared tool config, one aggregated test module, tracked build output), union-vs-recompute-vs-rebuild as three different correct resolutions, generated artifacts that must never be merged, non-deterministic serialization that makes every branch conflict, renumbered identifiers that git cannot show you, and why a clean auto-merge is not a passing test. Use when rebasing or merging a long-lived branch, resolving conflict markers, reviewing a merge commit, deciding what a repo should commit vs generate, or setting up a repo that will take parallel contributions.Testing★ 2K
- doc-maintenancepaperclipai/paperclipKeep project docs aligned with recent code and feature changes — detect drift, update affected pages, and add release-relevant notes without rewriting unchanged sections.Engineering★ 105.4K
- developing-openrigmvschwarz/openrigUse when changing OpenRig's own source in a clone of the openrig repository: finding which package or file owns a behaviour, choosing which tests to run, testing a change without disturbing the OpenRig daemon your own session runs on, judging whether a diff touches a high-risk area, or preparing a pull request. Not for operating rigs (openrig-skills) or designing rig topologies.Testing★ 8K
- repo-standardizergithub/awesome-copilotPolish any GitHub repository's surface — labels (emoji rating tiers, P0–P3 priority, impact severity), issue forms, PR template, CI workflows, CODEOWNERS, rulesets, docs. Repo meta & config only — no code logic touched. Use when creating a new repo or polishing an existing one.Engineering★ 40.3K
- gh-clitrailofbits/skillsEnforces authenticated gh CLI workflows over unauthenticated curl, WebFetch, and MCP fetch patterns. Use when working with GitHub URLs, API access, pull requests, or issues.Engineering★ 7.7K
- github-triagetrailofbits/skillsTriages a repository's open GitHub issues and pull requests via the gh CLI. Optionally reviews and merges ready PRs — incrementally merging passing automated/bot PRs and maintainer-approved ones, and spawning review subagents for never-reviewed ones — then closes already-resolved issues with comments citing the resolving PR or commit, cross-links issues with their pending fix PRs, and assigns local-only priority and change-size estimates for everything outstanding. Use when triaging, grooming, or reviewing a repository's open issues and PRs.Engineering★ 7.7K
