What it does
Replacing Text is an agent skill from SebastienDegodez/copilot-instructions. Use when performing text find & replace, batch transformations across files, or when JavaScript-style regex syntax is preferred over sed
Its SKILL.md is about 850 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `reference/sd-guide.md`).
It sits in Development. It works with JavaScript. The repository describes itself as: A comprehensive codebase of best practices, coding rules, and workflow automation for AI-assisted development with GitHub Copilot. Includes DDD, Clean Architecture, testing… The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Performing text find & replace
- Batch transformations across files
- JavaScript-style regex syntax is preferred over sed
Example prompts
- “/replacing-text”
Requirements
- Python 3
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0f0dccf. 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:
jqrg
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
Replacing Text loads about 850 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 334 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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- replacing-text
- description
- Use when performing text find & replace, batch transformations across files, or when JavaScript-style regex syntax is preferred over sed
sd: Fast Find & Replace
Always invoke replacing-text skill for find & replace operations - do not execute bash commands directly.
Use sd for intuitive text replacement that's 2-12x faster than sed.
When to Use sd vs ripgrep
Use sd when:
- Performing replacements on known patterns
- Batch text transformations across files
- Need JavaScript-style regex syntax
- Direct file modifications without search first
Use ripgrep when:
- Finding unknown patterns or locations
- Need search results without immediate changes
- Complex file filtering and type matching
- Want to preview before modifying
Common workflow: searching-text skill → replacing-text skill (search first, then replace)
Default Strategy
Invoke replacing-text skill for fast find & replace operations. Use when performing replacements on known patterns, batch text transformations across files, or need JavaScript-style regex syntax.
Common workflow: searching-text skill → replacing-text skill (search first, then replace) or finding-files skill → replacing-text skill for batch operations.
Key Options
-Ffor string-literal mode (no regex)$1, $2or${var}for capture groups--previewto preview changes--before patterns starting with-$$for literal$in replacement
Core Principle
Replace text with familiar JavaScript/Python regex syntax - no sed escape hell.
Detailed Reference
For comprehensive find & replace patterns, regex syntax examples, and workflow tips, load sd guide when needing:
- Advanced regex patterns with capture groups
- Pipeline operations and batch processing
- Escape sequence handling
- Common text transformation recipes
- Integration with other command-line tools
The guide includes:
- String-literal vs regex mode usage
- Capture group patterns and replacements
- Pipeline operations and batch processing
- Advanced regex patterns and edge cases
- Integration with other command-line tools
Skill Combinations
For Discovery Phase
- searching-text → replacing-text: Search patterns first, then replace across matches
- finding-files → replacing-text: Find files and perform batch replacements
- querying-json/querying-yaml → replacing-text: Extract data and transform to other formats
For Analysis Phase
- replacing-text --preview → viewing-files: Preview changes with syntax highlighting
- replacing-text → fuzzy-selecting: Interactive selection of changes to apply
- replacing-text → querying-json/querying-yaml: Transform data back to structured formats
For Refactoring Phase
- replacing-text → searching-text: Verify replacements didn't introduce issues
- replacing-text → analyzing-code-structure: Follow up with structural changes if needed
- replacing-text → analyzing-code: Measure impact of text-based changes
Integration Examples
# Find and replace across project
fd -e js -x sd "oldPattern" "newPattern" --preview
# Chain transformations
cat config.json | jq '.version' | sd '"v' '' | sd '"' '' | xargs git tag
# Interactive replacement with preview
rg "deprecated" -l | fzf --multi | xargs sd "deprecated" "legacy" --preview | bat© SebastienDegodez, Apache-2.0. Rendered from Markdown: HTML in the file is shown as text, images as links, and headings moved down two levels. Raw file
