terminal SKILL.md skillA

terminal from jstanden/cerb is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

The agent terminal -- its commands, absolute paths, how `search` actually matches, the `|` Twig pipeline, and /tmp as a compute surface. Load it before your first search comes back empty.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# The agent terminal

Your terminal tool runs ONE command line per call -- verb, arguments, and flags together, exactly as you would type them at a prompt. Everything below is a COMMAND, not a tool of its own: there is no separate `search` tool, only `search ...` typed into the terminal.

It is NOT a Unix shell. It has only the documented commands -- `ls`, `find`, `search`, `read`, `write`, `append`, `edit`, `copy`, `rm` -- plus a trailing `|` pipeline. A few Unix names work as aliases -- `cat` (read), `grep` (search), `dir` (ls), `cp` (copy) -- and everything else errors, `echo` and `awk` included.

`search` needs a fulltext index, which only a mounted volume has. With nothing but `/tmp` you do not have it -- filter `/tmp` with a pipeline instead.

## Paths

Write every path in full. `cd` exists, but assume it does not stick: your terminal call starts at `/` every time, so a `cd` is gone by your next call. Use an absolute path (`/cerb-docs/references/docs/kata.md`) or the `@<filesystem>/path` shorthand (`@cerb-docs/references/docs/kata.md`). A mount is read-only unless its overview says otherwise; `/tmp` is always read-write.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jstanden/cerb/terminal@sha256:e3bd1fd83194cccb

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260823.7d1dc0c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
