Preface

In daily development, tasks like listing directories, finding files by name or content, checking size distribution, and batch copying/moving/deleting often require switching back and forth between the terminal and the editor. When delegating these steps to an Agent equipped with tools, without unified guidelines, it is easy to overlook recursion scope, type filtering, or confirmation before batch operations. The following introduces test-2 on SkillHub (Coordinate @user_38fa0bef/for-test2): using the standard SKILL.md format, it consolidates “Advanced File System Operations” into capability instructions that Agents can follow, facilitating listing, searching, directory analysis, and batch processing within conversations.

What is this

test-2 is a community-sourced (community) Skill published by user_38fa0bef. The current version is 1.0.1, and it is categorized under dev-programming. The official introduction positions it as: Advanced file system operations for listing files, searching content, batch processing, and directory analysis; it supports recursive searching, filtering by file type, size analysis, and batch operations such as copy/move/delete. The tags indicate requires_api_key=false, meaning no additional API Key is needed after installation.

Core Functions

The following capabilities are derived from the official introduction; specific commands or scripts not present in the provided material are not expanded upon here.

  1. Listing & Directory Analysis: List directory contents and analyze directory structures.
  2. Search by Name & Content: Supports recursive searching and filtering by file type.
  3. Size & Distribution: Analyze file sizes and distribution.
  4. Batch Operations: Handle copy, move, and delete requirements within Agent workflows.

The official recommendation is to enable this Skill in the following situations: when you need to list directories, find files by name or content, analyze directory structures, perform batch file operations, or analyze file sizes and distribution.

Installation and Activation

SkillHub provides two common installation paths: using the CLI to install into the current Agent’s skills directory, or sending the installation prompt to the AI to execute according to official documentation.

1. Verify SkillHub CLI

First, check if skillhub is available on your local machine:

command -v skillhub && skillhub --version

If it is not installed, you can follow the SkillHub installation documentation to perform a full installation (CLI + Default Skills):

curl -fsSL https://skillhub-1388575217.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/install/install.sh | bash

To install only the CLI:

curl -fsSL https://skillhub-1388575217.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/install/install.sh | bash -s -- --cli-only

Description and command source: https://skillhub.cn/install/skillhub.md

2. Install test-2 to the Agent’s skills directory

When installing the skill, you must use --dir to point to the actual skills directory read by the current Agent; installing to the default ./skills/ might not be recognized. Common path examples given in the documentation:

  • Cursor: ~/.cursor/skills/
  • Claude Code: ~/.claude/skills/
  • Codex: ~/.codex/skills/ or .agents/skills/ under the project

In Cursor, you can execute (replace the directory with the path in your environment):

skillhub install user_38fa0bef/for-test2 --dir ~/.cursor/skills/

If the coordinate syntax matches the page, you can also use @user_38fa0bef/for-test2 as the identifier for searching or installing; rely on the matching results of skillhub search for-test2 on your local machine.

3. Let the AI install via conversation

The prompt provided on the SkillHub skill page is:

Please install `@user_38fa0bef/for-test2` according to https://skillhub.cn/install/skillhub.md.

Send the above content to the current Agent, allowing it to complete the CLI check, directory selection, and installation following skillhub.md. After installation, restart or refresh the skill list according to your client’s requirements (subject to client documentation).

Typical Usage

Public data does not include step-by-step examples from the SKILL.md inside the test-2 package; usage should revolve around the intentions listed by the official source. Describe tasks to the Agent that has enabled this Skill using natural language, and clearly specify the workspace root path, whether to recurse, file types, and the scope of batch operations.

Referable question directions (expressions should be combined with your actual paths and constraints):

  1. Listing: “List files and subdirectories under a certain directory (specify if including subdirectories).”
  2. Search by Name: “Recursively find file names matching a pattern under a specified tree.”
  3. Search by Content: “Search for files containing a specific string within a certain file type (e.g., .py).”
  4. Structure Analysis: “Summarize the directory hierarchy of a project or the distribution of a certain type of file.”
  5. Size Analysis: “Calculate file size sorting or size bucketing under a directory.”
  6. Batch Processing: “After confirming the list, perform copy/move/delete on a batch of matching files (should request the Agent to list the intended operation list first).”

After enabling the Skill through the steps above, the Agent will select appropriate tools according to the guidelines within SKILL; you still need to limit paths and whether destructive operations are allowed in the conversation to avoid accidental deletion or out-of-bounds access.

Use Cases & Notes

Who it is for: Developers who frequently perform repository file inspection, content retrieval, directory and size analysis within IDE Agents (like Cursor), or confirmed batch organization, and wish to constrain operation boundaries using a unified Skill.

Notes:

  • Batch deletion, moving, and other operations are destructive; always have the Agent output the list of items to be processed and manually confirm first.
  • Recursive searching and large directory size statistics can be time-consuming; you should narrow the root path or add type filtering (capabilities are consistent with the official introduction; specific strategies are subject to the SKILL body text).
  • The “Installations 0” in installation statistics only indicates the SkillHub side count; it does not mean your local machine has not installed it. Verify based on whether the package appears in the local skills directory.
  • Client differences not verified in the material (except for installation path examples) are not speculated upon; for other Agents, please map --dir yourself by referring to Section 4 of skillhub.md.

Conclusion

test-2 organizes file system tasks such as listing, recursive searching, type filtering, size analysis, and copy/move/delete into a Skill for Agents. It is suitable for scenarios in development workflows where you want to reduce manual command typing while requiring controllable batch processing. Current version 1.0.1, no API Key required.
