AFAIK GitHub doesn't allow optionally enforcing CODEOWNERS while pushing commits i.e. turn on the feature "Block commit from being pushed if it modifies a file for which the account pushing is not a codeowner" You can only enforce it in a PR. So if you want to prevent people from modifying some files without approval, you have to slow down everyone working with that repo This is yet another example where GitHub's rules are too inelastic for agentic workflows with a big team Because historically, nobody could commit as frequently as one can with agents, so it seldom became a bottleneck. But not anymore It is clear at this point that we need an API, and should be able to implement arbitrary rules as we like over it. Not just for commit pushes, but everything around git and github In the meanwhile, if GitHub could implement this feature, it would be a huge unlock for secure collaboration with agentic workflows If this is not there already, it might be because it has a big overhead for repos with huge CODEOWNERS, since number of commits >> number of PRs If the feature already exists already and I'm missing something, I will stand corrected

Request for comments skillflag: A complementary way to bundle agent skills right into your CLIs tl;dr define a --skill flag convention. It is basically like --help or manpages but for agents acpx already has this for example. you can run npx acpx --skill install to install the skill to your agent It's agnostic of anything except the command line It only defines the CLI interface and does not enforce anything else. If you install the executable to your system, you get a way to list and install skills as well Repo currently contains a TypeScript implementation, but if it proves useful, I would implement other languages as well Specification below, let me know what you think! I still think something is missing there. Send issue/PR github.com/dutifuldev/skillflag/blob/main/docs/…
