Project Initialization

What it does

When your agent uses it

• : инициализируй проект
• Создай новый проект
• Initialize project

Example prompts

• “init project”
• “initialize project”
• “Use the project-initialization skill to initializ a project from the standard dual-runtime template, preserves existing files, configures Git hooks…”
• “/project-initialization”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

1. 1Check the Current Directory
2. 2Preserve Existing Files and Apply the Template
3. 3Initialize Git and Hooks
4. 4Connect GitHub and Create Branches
5. 5Report the Result

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b5db526. 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

  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

Project Initialization loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 547 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~77

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.1k

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

• NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:51

  `OLD_DIR` is non-empty, inspect it for `.env*`, `*.key`, `*.pem`, `credentials.json`, and

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.

Initializes a project from the standard dual-runtime template, preserves existing files, configures Git hooks, and creates or connects a private GitHub repository with main and dev branches. Use when: "инициализируй проект", "создай новый проект", "init project", "initialize project"
