Our review
This skill allows an agent to gracefully shut down by saving progress, reporting status, and preparing for a restart.
Strengths
- Quickly commits changes via Git with a WIP message
- Clearly reports current state to the developer
- Minimizes work loss during restarts
Limitations
- Does not handle cases where Git is unavailable
- Assumes the agent can push to a remote repository
- Does not cover saving non-Git-related branches
Use this skill when you need to kill and restart an agent quickly while keeping track of ongoing work.
Do not use it when you want to permanently stop an agent with no intention to resume work.
Security analysis
SafeThe skill instructs standard git operations (status, add, commit, push) to save state before shutdown. No destructive commands, data exfiltration, or obfuscated payloads are present. The push command includes error handling and avoids forced pushes. There is no network abuse or credential exposure beyond normal version control usage.

Examples
Please kill yourself gracefully – save your progress and report status before shutdown.Wrap up your current work and get ready for a restart. I need to kill and restart you.name: kill description: Gracefully wrap up current work before agent shutdown. Use when you need to kill and restart agents.
Graceful Shutdown
The human wants to kill and restart agents. Wrap up your work as quickly and cleanly as possible.
Instructions
Do these steps quickly - don't deliberate:
1. Stop Current Work
- Stop whatever you're doing immediately
- Don't start any new tasks
2. Save Your Progress
# Check what's uncommitted
git status
# If you have changes, commit them with a WIP message
git add -A
git commit -m "WIP: [brief description of what you were working on]"
# Push to your branch (not main) if possible
git push origin HEAD 2>/dev/null || echo "Could not push - that's OK"
3. Update Status (if applicable)
If you were working on an issue:
- Do NOT remove any labels - leave the state as-is for when you restart
- The "Picking this up" comment already shows you claimed it
If you have a PR with status:needs-changes:
- Leave it - you'll address it after restart
4. Report Status
Briefly tell the human:
- What you were working on
- Current state (committed/uncommitted, PR status if any)
- What you'll pick up on restart
5. Confirm Ready
Say: "Ready for shutdown."
Important
- Be FAST - the human is waiting
- Don't overthink - just save state and report
- It's OK to leave work incomplete - you'll resume after restart
