What it does
Fish Shell Config is an agent skill from wcygan/dotfiles. Expert Fish shell configuration including config files, functions, abbreviations, prompts, environment variables, and scripting. Use when setting up Fish, creating aliases/functions, writing Fish scripts, configuring prompts, or migrating from bash. Keywords: fish shell, fish config, alias, abbr, function, prompt, fish script, config.fish, autoload
Its SKILL.md is about 2.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts (for example `REFERENCE.md`).
It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Secrets management. It works with Bash. The repository describes itself as: Configuration for Development Environments.
When your agent uses it
- Setting up Fish
- Creating aliases/functions
- Writing Fish scripts
- Configuring prompts
Example prompts
- “/fish-shell-config”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Determine what the user needs
- Use appropriate tools
- Follow project conventions
- Provide working examples
- Explain Fish idioms
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b385ffa. 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
Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
git
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):
fishshell.com
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
Fish Shell Config loads about 2.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 92 tokens; SKILL.md has 548 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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 548 words (~2,925 tokens).
“Expert guidance for Fish shell setup, configuration, scripting, and interactive features based on official Fish documentation.”
