What it does
Extract Repo is an agent skill from archibate/dotfiles-opencode. Download GitHub repos as clean source code (no .git history) to WORKDIR. Use when cloning repos for analysis or modification. Not for monorepos.
Its SKILL.md is about 370 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/extract_repo.py`).
It sits in Development, covering Git workflow and Monorepo tooling. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Archibate's personal configuration for OpenCode.
When your agent uses it
- Cloning repos for analysis
- Tasks that involve Git workflow
- Tasks that involve Monorepo tooling
Example prompts
- “/extract-repo”
Requirements
- Python 3
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 46b6b23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
uv
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
github.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Extract Repo loads about 370 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 81 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 81 words (~370 tokens).
“Download GitHub repositories as clean source code without git history.”
