File-upload bridge for Claude Code on the Web. CCotw has no native file mount; this skill creates a throwaway GitHub branch the user can drop files onto via the github.com web UI, then fetches them locally on the next turn. Use when the user wants to upload, share, or send files into the session, or when a task clearly needs files the user has on disk that aren't in the repo.
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
# Uploading Files Claude Code on the Web has no file-upload widget and no shared mount. Whenever the user needs to get a file (image, PDF, CSV, doc, archive, anything) into the session, route them through a temporary GitHub branch on the working repo's `origin` remote. ## When to use Trigger this skill when: - The user asks to upload, attach, share, or send a file - A task clearly needs a file the user has locally that isn't in the repo (e.g. "summarize this PDF", "the spreadsheet I exported", "the screenshot from earlier") - You're about to ask the user to paste a long binary or large text blob — offer upload instead Don't trigger when the file is already in the repo, on a public URL you can fetch, or short enough to paste inline. ## Workflow The script lives at `/mnt/skills/user/uploading-files/scripts/upload.py` once installed. It must be run from inside the working git repo (it uses `origin` and `cwd`). ### Step 1 — Create the upload branch ```bash python3 /mnt/skills/user/uploading-files/scripts/upload.py init ``` …

How to install
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/uploading-files@sha256:2869e954337989e9The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.1, 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.
