At a glance

A skill your agent uses when auditing URL structure or configuring a new site's routing.

  • Auditing URL structure
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Reference, Check, Fix and Explain, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Configuring a new sites routing

What it does

Lowercase is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when auditing URL structure or configuring a new site's routing. Applies to any server or framework that allows case-insensitive file systems (Linux servers are case-sensitive by default).

Its SKILL.md is about 540 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/rule.md`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Linux administration. The repository describes itself as: 🗂 The essential checklist for modern web development, for humans and AI agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Auditing URL structure
  • Configuring a new sites routing

Example prompts

  • “/lowercase”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e8d14d0. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • frontendchecklist.io

    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

Lowercase loads about 539 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 240 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~539
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.6k

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.

Use lowercase URLs

Mixed-case URLs can create duplicate content—search engines may index both /Product and /product as separate pages, splitting link equity and diluting rankings.

Quick Reference

  • URLs should be entirely lowercase to prevent duplicate content issues
  • Most web servers treat /Page and /page as different URLs, creating duplicates
  • Redirect uppercase and mixed-case URLs to their lowercase equivalents with 301
  • Apply lowercasing in your server config or framework router, not ad hoc

Check

Scan the site's internal links and server-side routes for URLs containing uppercase letters. Check HTTP response codes for uppercase variants of key URLs to confirm whether they redirect (301) to lowercase.

Fix

Configure your server or framework to normalize all incoming URLs to lowercase before routing. Add 301 redirects from any existing uppercase URLs to their lowercase equivalents. Update internal links and sitemaps to use only lowercase URLs.

Explain

URL case matters for SEO because case-sensitive servers treat /Page and /page as different resources, creating duplicate content. Even on case-insensitive servers, inconsistency confuses crawlers and splits PageRank across URL variants.

Code Review

Scan the site's route definitions, server configuration, and internal links for uppercase letters in URL paths. Test key URLs in uppercase and mixed case — verify they return 301 to the lowercase version, not 200. Check the sitemap for any uppercase <loc> entries. Verify framework router is configured to normalize URL case.
