rstudio-update-copilotAdvances RStudio's pinned copilot-language-server dependency to a specified release, then uploads it to S3, verifies the install, and opens a PR.
This skill runs only on macOS and Linux, and insists on starting from the main branch so the new feature branch is based on the right commit; it validates that the version argument matches the X.Y.Z format before touching anything.
It checks that aws and wget are installed and that AWS credentials actually work, stopping immediately if either check fails rather than discovering the problem after files are already edited. Once checks pass, it creates a version-named branch and updates the COPILOT_VERSION string in NEWS.md and in the dependency install and upload scripts, each of which uses a slightly different syntax that must be matched exactly.
8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ed04cb7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
awsgitbashFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use aws and git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
RStudio Copilot Language Server Updater loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 480 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.
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.
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 480 words (~1,082 tokens).
“Updates the pinned copilot-language-server version across the RStudio codebase, uploads the new version to S3, verifies the install, and opens a PR.”

RStudio Copilot Language Server Updater fits situations like: bumping the copilot-language-server version in RStudio; preparing a PR for a new Copilot language server release.
Run `npx skills add rstudio/rstudio --skill rstudio-update-copilot -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/rstudio-update-copilot in rstudio/rstudio) into .claude/skills/rstudio-update-copilot in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add rstudio/rstudio --skill rstudio-update-copilot -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/rstudio-update-copilot in rstudio/rstudio) into .agents/skills/rstudio-update-copilot in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add rstudio/rstudio --skill rstudio-update-copilot -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/rstudio-update-copilot, .gemini/skills/rstudio-update-copilot, .github/skills/rstudio-update-copilot and .opencode/skills/rstudio-update-copilot in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, RStudio Copilot Language Server Updater needs the command-line tools its instructions call (aws, git and bash). Our summary lists: AWS CLI with configured credentials; wget; Must start from the main branch.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
RStudio Copilot Language Server Updater has a licence file (the repository's licence) that doesn't match a standard licence. Read it on GitHub before reusing the skill.
About 1.1k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.3k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
