What it does

Lazygit Config is an agent skill from wcygan/dotfiles. Configure lazygit TUI including config.yml setup, custom pagers (especially delta integration), themes, keybindings, and custom commands. Use when setting up lazygit, configuring git diff viewers, integrating delta, or customizing lazygit behavior. Keywords: lazygit, delta, git diff, pager, lazygit config, config.yml, git TUI, diff viewer

Its SKILL.md is about 3.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including scripts (for example `REFERENCE.md`, `scripts/setup-lazygit.sh` and `scripts/test-lazygit-config.sh`).

It sits in Development, covering Git workflow. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Configuration for Development Environments.

When your agent uses it

  • Setting up lazygit
  • Configuring git diff viewers
  • Integrating delta
  • Customizing lazygit behavior

Example prompts

  • “/lazygit-config”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

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

  1. Determine User's Platform
  2. Check Existing Config
  3. Delta Integration Priority
  4. Use Appropriate Tools
  5. Provide Complete Configs
  6. Consider Project Context
  7. Validation Steps

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a9f60e7. 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 2 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • brew
    • nix
    • yq
    • python3

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • raw.githubusercontent.com

    Also links to:

    • github.com
    • dandavison.github.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

Lazygit Config loads about 3.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 89 tokens; SKILL.md has 643 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~89
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.6k

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); 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 643 words (~3,595 tokens).

“Expert guidance for configuring lazygit with delta integration, custom pagers, themes, and keybindings.”
