What does this skill do, and when should you use it?
This is a test-oriented Agent Skill in the Skill Seekers repository, focused on the golden_man_kw man-page build. It covers three man pages, centered on git-log and git-diff, with an option and example from curl. The skill provides command syntax, selected options, invocation examples, environment-variable guidance, and SEE ALSO navigation. It fits developers who need a focused command-line reference, but its scope is deliberately narrow and should not be confused with the capabilities of the full Skill Seekers collection.
Provides syntax for git-log and git-diff; summarizes three extracted options and three examples; documents git-log options including -p and --max-count=<number>, plus curl's -s/--silent option; lists related commands such as git-diff, git-log, and gitk; and points to references/version_control_01.md, references/other_02.md, and references/index.md.
- A developer needs to confirm git-log syntax, revision ranges, or path arguments before running a command.
- A reviewer wants a quick reference for basic git-diff usage while comparing changes.
- A user wants selected man-page options and examples without reading all source pages first.
- A learner wants to follow SEE ALSO references from Git commands to related tools such as gitk.
How do you install this skill?
- This path is a test-oriented man-page summary, not the described tool for converting documentation sites, GitHub repositories, and PDFs into Claude skills; do not extrapolate its capabilities from the description.
- version_control_01.md contains visibly truncated content and an incomplete example; verify against the original man pages before use.
- The curl example accesses an external URL; confirm the target and data scope before executing external commands.
- Shell / CLI
- Local filesystem
Gitcurl
The README documents installation for the overall Skill Seekers collection with pip install skill-seekers. The supplied material does not document a separate installation or placement procedure for tests/golden/phase2/man_kw/SKILL.md, so standalone installation is unspecified.
tmp="$(mktemp -d)"
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/yusufkaraaslan/Skill_Seekers.git "$tmp"
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R "$tmp/tests/golden/phase2/man_kw" ~/.claude/skills/
rm -rf "$tmp"Generated from the source repository and skill path; it copies only this skill's folder. If the author's install steps above differ, follow those first. To scope it to one project, replace ~/.claude/skills with that project's .claude/skills.
How do you use this skill?
Once installed, send your agent any of these to trigger it:
- Explain the common git-log options
- Show the git-diff command syntax.
After loading the skill into an Agent, ask a focused question such as “Explain the common git-log options” or “Show the git-diff command syntax.” The skill also includes man-page examples such as git log -3 and curl https://example.com for usage-oriented queries.
What are this skill's strengths and limitations?
- Focused coverage of Git history, diffing, and related man-page lookup.
- Includes copyable examples for git-log, git-diff, and curl usage.
- Provides option summaries, documentation statistics, reference-file navigation, and SEE ALSO links.
- Coverage is limited to three man pages.
- It is a compact reference rather than a complete Git or curl tutorial.
- The supplied material does not document standalone installation, configuration, or an automatic execution mechanism.
- It is explicitly associated with testing the golden build, which may limit its production scope.

How did FollowSkills review this skill?
The skill only presents man-page reference material and read-only examples. It discloses no credential use, sensitive-data handling, external writes, confirmation, or rollback process; baseline risk is therefore low, but data flow, provenance, and effects of external commands are insufficiently explained, so points are deducted.
The structure and command examples are broadly consistent, but the material contains truncated text, a prose-only invalid example, and no installation requirements, abnormal-input handling, or diagnosable failure feedback. Static evidence is thin, so points are deducted.
The stated use is narrowly testing a golden man build, but inputs, outputs, non-fit boundaries, and Chinese-environment support are not defined. It also does not match the described documentation/GitHub/PDF conversion and conflict-detection capability, so points are deducted.
It includes headings, quick reference, examples, categories, navigation, and referenced files, while repository metadata identifies an MIT license. However, versioning, changelog, maintenance ownership, update path, installation notes, and limitations are absent, so points are deducted.
It may serve as a minimal summary of three git/curl man pages, but it contains few options and incomplete examples. It cannot directly perform skill conversion or conflict detection, and substantial rework would be required, so points are deducted.
The referenced files and statistics offer limited auditable static evidence, but there are no execution results, third-party corroboration, or complete generation records tied to the skill's key paths. Static calibration therefore limits this score.

Evidence confidence：Low — Mostly static review, author material or a limited demo; useful for discovery, not high-risk decisions.
