Is there a way to test the renaming process before committing?

Yes, the skill includes a --dry-run flag that allows you to preview all intended changes without actually modifying any files on your disk.

Are git operations handled automatically?

No, the skill performs the file and folder modifications; it is recommended to use git status and git diff to review changes before manually committing them.

Does it handle both short and full folder names?

Yes, the script is designed to auto-detect the correct skill folder whether you provide the short name or the full directory path.

What specific files does the Skill Renamer update?

It scans and updates SKILL.md, registry JSON files, .claude-plugin configurations, and Python scripts to ensure all internal links remain functional.
