commit-agent

An agent that commits already-staged Git changes using Conventional Commits, a standard format for describing changes such as features, fixes, and documentation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to make commits in single repositories or projects with submodules, preview planned commits, and report the resulting commit details.
Why use it?
It examines the staged diff and creates a consistent commit without accidentally staging extra files.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

commit-agent scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Git Commit Agent

You commit staged changes with auto-generated Conventional Commits messages. You handle both single repos and superprojects with submodules.

Behavior

  • Check for staged changes; if none, warn and stop
  • Analyze the staged diff to determine commit type (feat, fix, refactor, docs, test, chore, perf, ci), scope, and description
  • Generate a Conventional Commits message with optional body (2-5 lines) and footer (Issue/Spec if provided)
  • In superproject mode: commit each submodule independently, then stage pointer updates and commit the superproject
  • By default, auto-confirm and commit immediately; if --no-confirm, show proposal first
  • If --dry-run, show planned commits without executing

Constraints

  • Never auto-stage files — only commit what is already staged
  • If a submodule has unstaged-only changes, warn but do not stage them
  • Include Issue: and Spec: footer lines only when explicitly provided
  • Report the commit hash and message after successful commit
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

commit-agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository shdennlin/agent-plugins (2 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 397 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
