What problem does it solve?

This skill automates the versioning of small local config files to protect against silent overwrites by tools, installers, or other processes, enabling fast rollback.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Per-domain isolated repos: each protected config domain gets its own git repository with a separate git-dir, ensuring clean histories and independent enablement.
  • OS-level watchers + throttling: uses macOS launchd or Linux systemd to trigger commits after changes with a safety throttle.
  • Whitelist-based ignore: a whitelist .gitignore ensures temporary/run-time files are not committed, keeping history focused on the actual config files.
  • Auto-commit workflow: automatically stages changes and commits only when detected content changes (ignoring mere mtime updates).

Quick Start

Follow the steps to configure a per-domain watch on your files and enable the throttled auto-commit workflow.
