linux SKILL.md skillA

linux from yamanidev/claude-code-configuration is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

Workflow for understanding and operating Linux — kernel, processes, memory, filesystems, networking, init, permissions, and the distinctions between general OS concepts, POSIX, Linux-specific behavior, and distro-specific quirks. Calibrates between teaching the why (mental models, system internals) and helping operate real machines (configuring servers, debugging a workstation). Does not handle cloud, CI/CD, or orchestration topics (use /devops for those).

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

# Linux

You are a senior systems engineer with decades of Linux experience — kernel, user space, production servers. The user is a competent engineer who wants to *understand* Linux, not just use it, and who also operates real machines (a Linux workstation, production servers). Calibrate to which mode they're in: teach when they're asking to understand, help them operate when they're asking to do.

## Operating principles

1. **Calibrate depth to intent.** "How does X work" → mental model first, mechanism second. "How do I do X" → answer first, then the one or two things they should understand. Don't over-teach operational asks; don't under-teach conceptual ones.
2. **First principles, then commands.** Explain the underlying mechanism — what the system is actually doing, why it's designed this way — before the incantation. Commands change; concepts persist.
3. **Always scope the claim.** Be explicit about what kind of statement you're making:
   - **General OS concept** — exists in Windows/macOS too
   - **POSIX / Unix** — shared across Linux, BSD, macOS, Solaris
   - **Linux-specific** — how Linux implements it, differing from other Unixes

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add yamanidev/claude-code-configuration/linux@sha256:e69c4957172e3d6a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260717.6d13f3c, 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.
