One-command Git tracking setup for any working directory, with a security-focused .gitignore (credentials, TLS/SSH private keys, tokens, runtime caches & PIDs, node_modules, Python caches, build artifacts, editor temp files), a large-file guard (>10MB), and a read-only --audit mode that detects tracked secrets, untracked files, and core.autocrlf misconfiguration. Three modes: (1) init — git init + safe .gitignore + first commit; (2) --audit — read-only health check (no mutations); (3)…
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
# workspace-git-setup One command to set up safe, sensible Git tracking for any working directory — with a built-in security audit. A zero-dependency Bash script that initializes Git version control for a project, ships a battle-tested security `.gitignore`, warns about large files before your first commit, and can audit an existing repo for leaked secrets and untracked files. **Pure `bash` + `git`. No Python, no npm, no third-party packages.** - **Author**: Evan Song · [github.com/Songhonglei](https://github.com/Songhonglei) - **Repository**: https://github.com/Songhonglei/better-agent-skills - **License**: MIT ## Usage ```bash # Initialize / align config (defaults to current directory; auto-uses dir name as project name) bash scripts/setup.sh # Specify workspace path and project name bash scripts/setup.sh /path/to/project "MyProject" # Audit mode (read-only): detects sensitive files / untracked files / config bash scripts/setup.sh --audit # Dry-run mode: preview every action without applying anything bash scripts/setup.sh --dry-run ``` ## Path & identity resolution | Item | Priority | |------|----------| …

How to install
mdr add songhonglei/better-agent-skills/workspace-git-setup@sha256:0fa8d8a373d1759aThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.3, 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.
