Does this work with GitLab or Bitbucket?

The skill includes specific SSH testing commands for GitLab and Bitbucket to verify which account is associated with your local SSH keys.

Can it help resolve conflicts between multiple Git accounts?

Yes, it checks both HTTPS and SSH configurations to identify if different accounts are being used for different protocols, helping you align your credentials.

What is the benefit of the 'all' argument?

The 'all' argument runs every authentication check simultaneously, providing a comprehensive summary of your entire Git authentication environment.

How does it inspect HTTPS credentials?

It queries the local Git credential helper using 'git credential fill' to see what username and password/token are stored for a specific host like github.com.

How does this skill check my GitHub CLI status?

The skill runs the 'gh auth status' command to identify the active account, authentication method (token or hosts.yml), and available token scopes.

Herramientas para Desarrolladores

Identifies active authenticated accounts for GitHub CLI, Git HTTPS, and SSH to resolve credential conflicts.

The auth-user skill provides a unified interface for verifying Git identities across various authentication methods. It enables developers to quickly check which user is logged in via the GitHub CLI, inspect stored HTTPS credentials through the Git credential helper, and test SSH connectivity to major hosting platforms. This is essential for troubleshooting 'permission denied' errors, managing multiple developer accounts on a single machine, and ensuring that environment variables or tokens have the correct scopes for the intended operations.
