Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Repository Maintainer ## Overview Audit repository health, apply authorized repairs narrowly, and finish through the repository's own protected workflow. ## When to Use Use when the user asks to maintain, clean, audit, harden, or prepare a repository for release. Use a more specific security, database, deployment, or release skill when that is the dominant task. ## Repository Policy Gate Before mutation: 1. Read root and nested `AGENTS.md`, contributor guidance, maintainer docs, and release instructions. 2. Inspect the current branch, worktree, staged files, remotes, default branch, and effective branch protection. 3. Discover repository-native validation, synchronization, merge, and release commands. 4. Preserve unrelated user work and generated outputs that are not in scope. If the repository names a mandatory maintainer skill or guarded command, delegate to it instead of inventing a parallel branch, merge, sync, or release path. In `agentic-awesome-skills`, use `antigravity-maintainer-batch-release` and `npm run merge:batch`; `main` is pull-request-only. The routine protected checks for `agentic-awesome-skills` are `pr-policy`, `pr-evidence`, `source-validation`, and `artifact

What does the repo-maintainer skill do?
Audit and repair repository hygiene across artifacts, dependencies, CI, docs, Git state, and code-quality signals. Use for repository maintenance, cleanup, health checks, or pre-release hardening.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill repo-maintainer --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 sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 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.
