skills

Bring your Entire context to your agents with cross-agent skills.

Why This Exists

The Entire CLI captures the context behind your code changes: prompts, transcripts, Checkpoints, and the decisions that led to each change, alongside your git history. This repository packages agent-invokable workflows that teach coding agents how to use that context across development environments.

Instead of looking up Entire commands yourself, you can ask in plain language and let your agent search prior work, inspect provenance, hand off session state, or turn repeated workflows into new skills.

Install

Install every skill with the skills CLI:

npx skills add https://github.com/entireio/skills --all

Install one skill:

npx skills add https://github.com/entireio/skills --skill search

See Agent-Specific Installation for setup instructions by agent.

Quick Start

[!NOTE] These skills are most useful in codebases with real Checkpoints and session history. The richer the history, the more context your agent has to work with; in a new or lightly captured repository, some workflows may have less to find or explain.

After installing, ask your agent for the workflow you want:

search past work for rate limiting

explain src/auth.ts

what happened here: src/auth.ts:42-57

hand off this session

turn my release notes workflow into a skill

review this branch before merging

For a guided walkthrough, see the skills tutorial.

What skills help agents do

Included skills

The current repository includes these skills. Each skill lives in skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md.

search

Finds prior work in your Entire history by topic, repo, branch, author, or time window, so your agent can bring past context into the current task before making changes.

explain

Looks up the session behind a function, file, or line so your agent can explain the requirement, decision, or original problem that shaped it.

what-happened

Starts from an exact file line, range, or pasted snippet and traces the latest change with git blame and Checkpoint context. Useful when reviewing a concrete block, debugging a regression, or asking why that block changed.

session-handoff

Reads saved or active session context so another agent can pick up the task state, important discoveries, blockers, and next steps without making you reconstruct everything manually.

review

Reviews code changes on the current branch by reading checkpoint transcripts to understand developer intent, then auditing the diff for issues. Produces intent-aware findings with severity levels (Critical / High / Medium / Low) compatible with entire review --fix. Includes a separate references/review-rules.md for the audit checklist.

using-entire

Orchestrator skill for codebase exploration. Routes user intent to the right sub-skill (search, explain, what-happened, review, session-handoff, session-to-skill, session-crosslink) or runs a general exploration flow that reads checkpoint history before inferring from code.

session-crosslink

Links an agent session that ran outside the repo whose commits should record it — launched from a higher-level folder, a non-Entire repo, or one repo but editing another — to each affected Entire-enabled repo's HEAD commit. Previews with --dry-run then amends on confirmation, no manual cd orchestration.

Requirements

These skills are designed for repositories where Entire has captured useful history. Some workflows need:

• the Entire CLI installed
• a git repository with Entire sessions, Checkpoints, or Checkpoint-backed commits
• entire login for workflows that search indexed history
• a GitHub origin and pushed, indexed Checkpoints for remote search results

Individual skills handle missing context differently and should explain what is missing before falling back or stopping.
