Shell Alias Manager

Create and organize shell aliases and functions for maximum terminal productivity.

Usage

Describe the commands you use frequently and this skill will create optimized aliases.

Examples

  • "Create aliases for common git workflows like commit, push, and rebase"

Guidelines

  • Group aliases by domain in separate files
  • Add comments explaining non-obvious aliases
  • Test aliases don't shadow important system commands
