What it does

Promote is an agent skill from dedalus-labs/wingman. Create a changelog-style promotion PR between two branches. Use for release promotions or branch-to-branch merges with a structured changelog.

Its SKILL.md is about 450 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Changelog and release notes. The repository describes itself as: scaling capability quotient. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Release promotions
Branch-to-branch merges with a structured changelog

Example prompts

“/promote”

Requirements

Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(git *), Bash(gh *), Read

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Parse $ARGUMENTS for --from, --to, --dry-run
Fetch the latest from origin for both branches
Get the commit list: git log --format="%H %s" origin/..origin/
If no commits, report that target is up to date and stop
Build the changelog body
If --dry-run, print the body and stop
Create the PR via gh pr create --base --head --title "chore(release): promote → " --body "..."
Return the PR URL

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f6233ab. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
- Bash(git *)
- Bash(gh *)
- Read
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- git
- gh
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git and gh, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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

Promote loads about 448 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 188 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~38
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~448

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
