# Code Change Undo And Revert Use this skill when the user wants to go back safely. The job is to identify what changed, preserve user work, and choose the least destructive undo path. ## Trigger Use when the user says: - undo - revert - roll back - restore - recover - go back to before - remove your changes - bring back deleted code - compare against the checkpoint ## Workflow 1. Inspect the current state. - Run `git status --short --branch` when in a git repo. - Review changed files before reverting anything. - Identify whether changes are yours, the user's, generated output, or mixed. 2. Choose the safest target. - If the user wants only your latest edits undone, revert only those files or hunks. - If the user wants a branch or commit reverted, inspect the commit range first. - If a local backup exists, compare backup files before copying anything back. 3. Avoid broad destructive commands. - Do not run `git reset --hard`, `git clean -fd`, or branch deletion unless explicitly requested and confirmed. - Do not remove untracked files until you know they are safe to delete. - Do not overwrite user edits mixed into a file unless the user approves. 4. Apply the revert. - Prefer `git r

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add TheGoat395/Codex-Skills --skill code-change-undo-revert --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From TheGoat395/Codex-Skills, a repository with 115 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
