share — save this project somewhere safe

The user may not know what git, a repo, or a remote is. Keep every message in plain language: the project gets an online copy that isn't public which they can restore, sync, or share later. Say "save"/"back up", not "push to remote". (A git-fluent user gets the same flow without the framing — this is the new-repo skill's flow in novice vocabulary.)

1. Look before you speak

git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree 2>/dev/null
git remote -v

• A remote already exists → the project is already backed up there. Offer to save the latest changes to it (commit + push) and stop. Do not create a second copy or touch the existing remote.
• No git at all → fine; you will set it up silently in step 3.

2. One-line explanation

Tell the user, in one line, what you are about to do:

"I'll put this project in a repo — a saved, versioned copy you can restore or share later. It won't be public."

This skill saves the project in a Cursor-hosted repo. If the user explicitly asks for a different host, follow that request without using this skill.

Default to a repo named after the project folder (lowercase, dashes).

3. Set up and save

Before staging anything, list what would be committed (git status --porcelain or git ls-files -o --exclude-standard) and make sure .gitignore covers dependency directories and secrets (.env*, key and credential files). If anything that looks like a secret would be staged, ask before including it — never stage-and-push blind.

git init -b main   # only if not already a repo
git add -A && git commit -m "Initial commit"   # only if nothing committed

If origin is missing, unauthenticated, or outdated, first invoke the origin skill (synced at ~/.cursor/skills-cursor/origin/SKILL.md) — tell the user "setting up Cursor's repo tool first; you'll see each step" (the sign-in opens their browser; that part is theirs). Then:

origin repo create <name>
git remote add origin <clone URL printed by create>
git push -u origin main

If origin repo create fails because the account has no namespace or no access, nothing is lost — follow the origin skill's recovery table (in plain language: "your team's admin has to switch this on").

4. Close the loop in their vocabulary

Report where it is saved — https://cursor.com/codebase/<org>/<name> (from the create output) — and that it is not public. If the account is part of a team, say plainly that teammates can also see repos in the team's space; access is managed from the repo page. End with: they can ask you to save again anytime after making changes.

If the goal was to show someone

A saved copy is never visible to the general public. Who can already see it depends on the account: on a personal account it is just the user; on a team, teammates in the team's space can see it too. For anyone beyond that, point them at the repo page (the URL above) to manage who has access — this skill cannot change that, so never promise the link alone will work for others.

Hard limits

• Never create a repo when the project already has a remote.
• Never delete repos, and never change existing remotes.
• Never promise public visibility or link-sharing; access is managed from the repo page.
• No git jargon in user-facing text.
