  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by t3dotgg on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Takeover AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/t3dotgg/tstack/tree/main/skills/takeover
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/t3dotgg/tstack.git /tmp/tstack
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/tstack/skills/takeover .claude/skills/takeover
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Takeover in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Takeover on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Takeover is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Takeover

Take responsibility for finishing the original goal while preserving the original contributors' credit. Do not defend an implementation just because another agent already built it.

Read the source PR, branch, or thread, including review findings and the user's later corrections. Resolve the handoff to the actual code and current head, and account for uncommitted work. Treat the handoff as context, not proof.

For a replacement PR, import the original commits onto a new branch and add your fixes separately. Honor an explicitly requested in-place or stacked continuation instead. Do not overwrite unrelated work or change the original PR without authorization.

Preserve Git authorship and existing co-author trailers. Credit the original contributors in the PR description and link the original PR when there is one. If the work will be squashed, preserve human author/co-author credit in the merge commit too, using verified identities rather than guessed emails. Model attribution is not a substitute for contributor credit.

Use modernize to update the continuation against its intended base and current architecture. Rework what is necessary to finish the same goal, not unrelated features. Simplify the implementation without dropping intended behavior or surfaces. Recheck the source PR too: it may have improved while you were working.

Independently verify the original failure and realistic workflows, following repository guidance and permissions. Green mocked tests do not prove the user experience works. State what remains unverified.

When the requested finish includes a PR, use file-pr to file or update it, then babysit-pr rather than stopping at creation. Use leaving-pr-comments for replies. Merge or close the original PR only when authorized.

Report what you inherited, what you changed, how you verified it, how credit was preserved, and any remaining decision.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Takeover AI skill do?

Take over existing work. Use when the user asks to take over a PR, branch, or agent thread, or requests a takeover.

Why use Takeover on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Takeover is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Takeover in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/t3dotgg/tstack/tree/main/skills/takeover. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Takeover?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Takeover?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Takeover with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Takeover AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by t3dotgg under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
