The skill itself

A skill is instructions the model reads, so you can see what you are getting: below is the start of its SKILL.md. The front matter loads with every session, the body loads when the skill triggers, and the whole file comes with the install.

7# baserCMS 4 から 5 へのアップグレード/移行ルール
8
9このファイルは、baserCMS 4 (CakePHP 2ベース) のコードを baserCMS 5 (CakePHP 5ベース) に移行する際、AIエージェントが遵守すべきルールとパターンを定義します。
10
11> **推奨: 移行に着手する前に一度 basercms5-claude-workflow-setup(環境セットアップ)を参照し、進め方の環境(権限整理=permissions-audit/その上での Auto mode/設計=superpowers brainstorming/spec・plan の Markdown プレビュー)を整える。提案ベースで、整っていればスキップ。**
12
13## 基本方針
14
151. **フレームワークの差異**: baserCMS 4 は CakePHP 2、baserCMS 5 は CakePHP 5 ベースです。CakePHP 2 の記法は基本的に動作しません。CakePHP 5 の記法に完全に書き換えてください。
162. **クラスの置換**: 廃止されたクラスは、代替クラスまたはPHP標準クラスに置き換えてください。
173. **アクセサの利用**: プロパティへの直接アクセスは避け、Getter/Setter を使用してください。
184. アップグレードの詳細情報については https://baserproject.github.io/5/ver5_migration を参考にする。
195. **【最重要・横断対応の原則】1画面の修正で見つけた不具合のうち、同じ原因がプラグイン/サイト全体に散在するものは、その場で“横断的に”一括対応する**。1箇所だけ直して次の画面で同じエラーに当たる、を繰り返さない。手順: ①エラーを直したら **同じパターンを grep -rn で全件洗い出す**(例: $this->Form->input(、'multiple' => 'checkbox'、単数 get('Sample.Sample...')、searches/、Time->format($x) 第2引数なし 等)→ ②機械的に一意な変換は perl -pi で一括適用 → ③**変更ファイルを全て php -l で検証** → ④非自明な箇所だけ個別対応。横断一括できる代表例は **basercms-plugin-4-to-5-upgrade スキルの C-0(機械的に一括変換できるパターン)** にカタログ化してある(見つけ次第追記する)。新しい横断パターンを見つけたらまず C-0 に追加してから一括実行する。プラグイン内部コード(Controller/Table/Entity/View/Helper/フォーム/Vue・JS)の具体的な書き換えは同スキルを参照。
20
21## 標準移行フロー(この順で進める・正本)
22
23**移行全体はこのチェックリストの順序で進める**。順序依存の罠(★印)が複数あるため、節の並びや思い込みで順番を変えないこと。各工程の詳細は参照先の節に書いてある。
24
25- [ ] **0. 実行環境の確認** — Docker利用有無・コンテナ名・PHPバージョン・プロキシ構成をユーザーに確認 → 「前提: 実行環境の確認」節

Why you can read it

Nothing in a skill executes. The client loads the text and the model follows it, so a skill can be audited the way a runbook is — by reading it.

What it costs in context

Skills are not billed by the call. They are paid for in context: every token the instructions occupy is a token your code, your diff and your conversation cannot use. Here is what this one takes and when it takes it.

≈260
always loaded
The name and description, so the model knows the skill exists and when to reach for it.
18,065
on trigger
The instruction body, read only when the skill fires.
9.2%
of a 200k window
Ten skills this size would take about 92% of the window before you open a file.
050k100k150k200k context window

18.3k tokens, estimated from the bundle at four bytes to the token, held for the rest of the session once it triggers. Heavy. Teams tend to install this one per project rather than globally, and load it only when the job comes up.

Servers bill, skills cost

A server charges by the month. A skill charges once per session, in context, and then keeps charging it for as long as the session lives.

Before and after

The same question, put to the same model twice: once as it comes, and once with these instructions loaded.

No worked example has been published for this skill yet.

The procedure it runs

The procedure has not been set out here step by step. It is in the body of its SKILL.md: the start of it is shown above, and the whole file comes with the install.

Prose, not code

These steps are written for a model to follow, not executed by a runtime. It can still be told to skip one, and it will say so when it does.

Servers it uses

None. This skill calls no MCP servers at all.

Everything it needs is in the instructions, so it works in a project with nothing connected — the model reads the file and changes how it works with what it can already reach.

Its SKILL.md does not declare which tools it asks the agent for, so what it touches is whatever the instructions themselves ask for — read them before you install it.

What it asks for
Writes filesnot declared
Network accessnot declared

This SKILL.md carries no allowed-tools line, so neither is declared. A skill grants no permissions of its own — it can only ask for tools your client already has.

What it will not do

Every skill is narrow, and the useful ones say where they stop. These are the jobs this one is the wrong tool for.

What this skill is not for has not been published here. Nothing is implied by that: it is a section the author has not filled in.

What is in the bundle

1 file, 73.3 kB on disk. A bundle is text throughout: the instructions the model reads, plus the templates it fills in.

  • SKILL.md73.3 kB
What is not in it

No dependencies and nothing executable: a skill is text the agent reads, so the bundle is 1 file you can review in full before installing. The MIT licence covers the templates and examples as well as the instructions.

Install

Installing copies the bundle into your project. Nothing runs at install time — the files sit on disk until the model reads them.

# baserCMS 4 to 5 Upgrade · 18.3k tokens when loaded · macOS, Linux mkdir -p .claude/skills && t=$(mktemp -d) && curl -fsSL -o "$t/bundle.tar.gz" https://mcprush.com/api/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade/bundle.tar.gz && tar -xzf "$t/bundle.tar.gz" -C "$t" && [ -d "$t/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade" ] && { [ ! -e .claude/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade ] || { mv .claude/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade "$t/.previous" && echo "Previous copy moved to $t/.previous"; }; } && mv "$t/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade" .claude/skills/ && echo "Installed .claude/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade"
On Windows, or any OS with Node 20+
npx mcprush@latest skill add baserproject/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade

Windows PowerShell says 'running scripts is disabled on this system'? Run Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSigned once, or type npx.cmd instead of npx (codex.cmd, gemini.cmd, grok.cmd likewise). PowerShell 7 needs neither. Writes to .claude/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade/ in the current project. For every project instead, run mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && t=$(mktemp -d) && curl -fsSL -o "$t/bundle.tar.gz" https://mcprush.com/api/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade/bundle.tar.gz && tar -xzf "$t/bundle.tar.gz" -C "$t" && [ -d "$t/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade" ] && { [ ! -e ~/.claude/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade ] || { mv ~/.claude/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade "$t/.previous" && echo "Previous copy moved to $t/.previous"; }; } && mv "$t/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade" ~/.claude/skills/ && echo "Installed ~/.claude/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade" (macOS, Linux) — or add --global to the npx line. The curl line replaces .claude/skills/basercms-4-to-5-upgrade/ only after the download succeeds, so files left there by another skill of the same name, or by an older release, do not mix in. A copy already there is moved aside, not deleted, and the line prints where. It appears as basercms4-to-5-upgrade in Gemini CLI, Codex, Copilot and Grok (its own name); Claude Code lists it by the folder name, basercms-4-to-5-upgrade.

Which clients pick it up on their own

A skill is a folder of text. Most of these read a skills folder and pick it up without being told; the rest take the same folder another way — an upload in the app, a parameter on an API call — and then choose it by its description just the same.

Versions

Its author publishes no version number, so there is nothing here to pin to: what you install is the folder as it stands today. Instructions change more often than APIs do — a skill can be rewritten entirely without anything it depends on moving.

Pinning

Nothing to pin to: this skill carries no version number of its own. What you install is what the folder holds on the day you install it.
