Shell

Run all user text after a /shell invocation as a literal shell command. Use only when explicitly invoked with /shell.

shell

Origin: converted from a Cursor built-in skill (~/.cursor/skills-cursor/shell/). VS Code Copilot runs terminal commands directly; a slash-only /shell skill may be redundant but kept for parity.

Use this skill only when the user explicitly invokes /shell.

Behavior

  1. Treat all user text after the /shell invocation as the literal shell command to run.
  2. Execute that command immediately with the terminal tool.
  3. Do not rewrite, explain, or "improve" the command before running it.
  4. Do not inspect the repository first unless the command itself requires repository context.
  5. If the user invokes /shell without any following text, ask them which command to run.

Response

  • Run the command first.
  • Then briefly report the exit status and any important stdout or stderr.
