  • New article: The missing private GitHub search - why gh search code returns nothing for private repos (the modern code search engine is web-only with no API) and how a local mirror + ripgrep covers all your repos in milliseconds. Every claim fact-checked first-party or against GitHub's docs.
  • setup.sh: drop the removed /dx:clone from the install summary (#43 follow-up)

No plugin version change (0.14.22).

What's new

  • New skill: /dx:private-github-search - full-text search across all your GitHub repos, including private ones. GitHub's modern code search (the only one that indexes private repos) is web-only, and gh search code / the REST API use the legacy engine that often returns nothing for private repos. The skill keeps a shallow local mirror (default branch, non-fork - same coverage as GitHub's own index) of every repo for the accounts in ~/repo-mirror/owners.txt and searches it with ripgrep in milliseconds. Syncs skip automatically if run within the last hour.
  • Removed the clone skill and clone-conversation.sh - native /branch and --fork-session cover forking now. /dx:half-clone stays; it remains the only way to halve a conversation's context.
  • Tip 21 rewritten around native forking + half-clone; dx skills table and plugin descriptions updated.

Plugin version: 0.14.22 (#43)

7 advanced tips article buildout, tip 32 note, reddit-fetch update

7 advanced tips article

  • Skeleton and initial structure (#38)
  • 'Originally posted' footer (#39)
  • Cover images (#40)
  • Delegation notes (#41): tip 2 (phone) - a favorite workflow of letting the agent do development and testing, take screenshots, and show them through a draft PR; tip 4 (spare machine) - another way to enable agents to do a lot more on their own

Other

  • Tip 32: note that remote control is fine with an isolated environment
  • reddit-fetch skill: DDG-hop is now the primary method, curl demoted to last resort (#37)

Tip 19 reframed: isolated environments

Tip 19 is now "Isolated environments for long-running risky tasks" (was "Containers for long-running risky tasks"). It's tightened up and now presents two ways to get isolation:

  1. Run Claude Code in a container (preset environment)
  2. Go further: set up a whole machine Claude Code can fully control, computer use included - a new step-by-step guide

Tip 45: switch between multiple Claude accounts

New tip on switching between multiple Claude accounts (for example, personal vs work) quickly:

  • Mint a long-lived token per account with claude setup-token
  • Store each token in the macOS Keychain instead of plaintext dotfiles
  • Add clw/clp shell functions that pass the token via CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN

The env var works on Linux and Windows too (their logins live in ~/.claude/.credentials.json instead); the Keychain setup shown is a Mac example to adapt to your own system.

reddit-fetch skill: block-escalation ladder

Reworked the reddit-fetch skill around a 5-rung fallback ladder for when Reddit blocks requests:

  1. curl JSON API (host)
  2. curl JSON API (safeclaw container)
  3. browser .json via Playwright - the reliable workhorse when curl 403s
  4. browser HTML thread page + shreddit-* DOM scrape (also returns more comments), with DuckDuckGo HTML for URL discovery since WebSearch refuses reddit.com
  5. Claude for Chrome

Also: noted that curl 403s regardless of User-Agent, that blocks are intermittent, deduped the User-Agent header, and condensed the skill (94 -> 91 lines).

Plugin version: 0.14.17 -> 0.14.18

  • Add attribution.sessionUrl to the disable-attribution tip - empty commit/pr strings don't remove the Claude-Session: commit trailer or PR session link; sessionUrl: false does

  • Rename /fork to /branch (Tip 21 / 5-new-tips) - the built-in command was renamed; /fork now spawns a background subagent
  • Use "40+ tips" instead of a hardcoded count in the README title and GitHub About
  • Tighten the dx plugin blurb to "skills for everyday dev workflows"

Thanks to @henryiii for reporting the /fork rename (#34).

Add two skills to the dx plugin (bumped to 0.14.17):

  • /dx:hn-summarize - summarize Hacker News top stories, articles, and comment threads (adapted to plain curl so it works without safeclaw).
  • /dx:version-check - recommend which Claude Code version to run, or whether to update, using npm dist-tags, the changelog, and Reddit sentiment.

Add Tip 32: Control Claude Code from your phone, covering Remote Control - /remote-control for driving an existing session from your phone (and back and forth with your computer), plus server mode (--spawn) for starting brand new sessions from your phone. Renumbered the following tips and refreshed the TOC.
