private_repo

创建或连接私有GitHub仓库，用于备份本地敏感数据（如记忆、笔记、配置文件）。当其他技能需要具备私有远程仓库的Git支持时，当用户提及希望备份或同步本地数据时，或当您发现用户主目录下存在未关联远程仓库的~/claude文件夹时，此技能便能派上用场。但请勿将其用于公开仓库或代码项目。

  Create or connect a private GitHub repository for backing up sensitive local
  data (memory, notes, config). Use when another skill needs git-backed storage
  with a private remote, when the user mentions wanting to back up or sync
  local data, or when you detect a ~/claude directory without a remote.
  Do NOT use for public repos or code projects.
allowed-tools: Bash(gh *), Bash(git *)

Help the user set up a private GitHub repository for local data that should be backed up but kept private.

Flow

1. Check current state

bash
git -C TARGET_DIR remote get-url origin 2>/dev/null

If a remote already exists, confirm with the user and skip to step 4.

2. Ask the user

Present these options:

  • •Create a new private repo (recommended if they don't have one)
  • •Connect an existing private repo (if they already have one)
  • •Skip (no remote, local git only)

3a. Create a new repo with gh CLI

bash
gh repo create REPO_NAME --private --description "Private backup for DESCRIPTION"

Then set up the remote (use git -C to match the Bash(git *) permission):

bash
git -C TARGET_DIR init && git -C TARGET_DIR add -A && git -C TARGET_DIR commit -m "initial commit"
git -C TARGET_DIR remote add origin git@github.com:USERNAME/REPO_NAME.git
git -C TARGET_DIR push -u origin main

Use gh api user --jq '.login' to get the username.

3b. Connect an existing repo

bash
git -C TARGET_DIR init && git -C TARGET_DIR remote add origin REPO_URL
git -C TARGET_DIR pull origin main --allow-unrelated-histories
git -C TARGET_DIR add -A && git -C TARGET_DIR commit -m "merge local state" && git -C TARGET_DIR push

4. Confirm sync works

bash
git -C TARGET_DIR push

Common Uses

This skill is called by other skills that need private remote storage:

  • •hierarchical_memory: backs up $CLAUDE_OBSIDIAN_DIR/memory/ (via the obsidian vault)
  • •obsidian: backs up $CLAUDE_OBSIDIAN_DIR/ — suggest repo name obsidian-vault-private

Important

  • •Always create repos as private -- this data may contain personal notes, API keys, or sensitive context
  • •Use SSH URLs (git@github.com:...) over HTTPS when possible
  • •If gh is not installed or not authenticated, walk the user through manual GitHub repo creation
