This skill should be used when the user wants to "ship this", "deploy this", "publish my code", "push to GitHub", "create a repo", "set up GitHub", "share my code", "put this online", "make this live", "get a URL for this", "host this", "I want people to see this", "deploy to Cloudflare", "how do I get this on the internet", "I want to share what I built", "make this accessible", "launch this", "push my changes", "create a repository", "set up version control", or mentions anything about getting their code online, shared, deployed, or published. This skill detects the current state of GitHub and Cloudflare configuration and only guides through what is missing. Use this skill proactively — if the user has finished building something and expresses any desire to share it, back it up, deploy it, or make it accessible, this is the right skill.
