What it does

New Global Command is an agent skill from wcygan/dotfiles. Route a reusable command or slash-command request to the authoritative agent-skills repository; retain dotfiles-only workflows under .agents/skills.

Its SKILL.md is about 290 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/templates.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Hooks and plugins. The repository describes itself as: Configuration for Development Environments.

Example prompts

  • “/new-global-command”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Gather the skill's name, purpose, triggers, inputs, and required resources.
  2. If it is portable across repositories, create or update it in the dedicated

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

    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

    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

New Global Command loads about 291 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 132 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~291
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.4k

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 132 words (~291 tokens).

“Requests for a reusable global command are requests for a reusable skill. Dotfiles is not the source or provider-side validator for global skills; it consumes the authoritative catalog through $agent-skills-integration.”
