What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the process of setting up a GitHub repository for a project, whether it's creating a new one or connecting to an existing one, ensuring your code is version-controlled and accessible.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • New Repo Creation: Creates a new GitHub repository with specified name and visibility (public/private).
  • Existing Repo Connection: Connects to a pre-existing GitHub repository by adding a remote origin.
  • Git Initialization: Initializes a local Git repository if one doesn't exist.
  • .gitignore Management: Ensures a sensible .gitignore file is present.
  • Initial Commit & Push: Performs an initial commit and pushes to the remote repository.
  • Use Case: When starting a new project, you can tell Claude to "create a GitHub repo for this project," and it will handle all the necessary Git commands and GitHub API interactions.

Quick Start

Use the repo-create skill to set up a new private GitHub repository named 'my-awesome-project'.
