Read-only scan of a git repository (working tree and full history) for leaks before it goes public - Claude conversation links, paths from your machine (/Users/<name>), e-mail addresses and internal names. Use when the user is about to make something public - creating a public repository, opening a PR to a public repository or pushing to a public remote - or asks to check for leaks before publishing. Triggers - /publish-check or /publish-check:publish-check, "publish-check…

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

# publish-check (check before publishing)

This skill scans the working tree and the **whole git history** for what should not become public:
- Claude conversation links (`claude.ai/code/session...`, `/chat/...`, `/share/...`).
- Paths from someone's machine (`/Users/<name>`, `/home/<name>`, `C:\Users\<name>`).
- E-mail addresses (in text, in the author field and in the committer field).
- A list of the owner's internal names.

The scan is **read-only**: it never changes the repository and never rewrites history. It needs `python3` (stdlib only) and `git`.

It does not look for secrets (keys, tokens). For secrets, use a secret scanner such as gitleaks. Tell the user this when you present the results.

Reply to the user in the user's language. The script's report is in English: explain its content to the user in the user's language.

## When to use

Use it before something becomes public: creating a public repository, opening a PR to a public repository or pushing to a public remote.

**Offer** to run the scan. **Never block**: the decision to publish belongs to the user.

If the repository is private and will not be published, do not offer.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dvwinck/capybara-toolbox/publish-check@sha256:df1244d9a962158d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.b5f94c2, 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.
