commit

A guide for creating Git commits with short, consistent messages. Git is a tool that records changes to a codebase, and a commit is one saved set of changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when saving changes in Git, especially when choosing a change type, adding a scope, and writing a concise Conventional Commits-style subject.
Why use it?
It removes uncertainty about commit wording and helps keep a project's change history easy to scan.

Command for Gemini CLI

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.

Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mfmezger/ai_agent_dotfiles

Made for: Gemini CLI.

Per session 7 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 683 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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 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 2d ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 57 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Create a git commit for the current changes using a concise Conventional Commits-style subject.

Format

<type>(<scope>): <summary>

  • type REQUIRED. Use feat for new features, fix for bug fixes. Other common types: docs, refactor, chore, test, perf,ci, style.
  • scope REQUIRED. Short noun in parentheses for the affected area (e.g., api, parser, ui).
  • summary REQUIRED. Short, imperative, <= 72 chars, no trailing period.

Explanations

fix: A bug fix. Correlates with PATCH in SemVer feat: A new feature. Correlates with MINOR in SemVer docs: Documentation only changes style: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc) refactor: A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature perf: A code change that improves performance test: Adding missing or correcting existing tests build: Changes that affect the build system or external dependencies (example scopes: pip, docker, npm) ci: Changes to CI configuration files and scripts (example scopes: GitLabCI)

Notes

  • Body is OPTIONAL. If needed, add a blank line after the subject and write short paragraphs.
  • Do NOT include breaking-change markers or footers.
  • Do NOT add sign-offs (no Signed-off-by).
  • Never add AI attribution anywhere in commit metadata. Do not write Generated by ..., Co-authored-by: Claude, Co-authored-by: Opus, Co-authored-by: Sonnet, or any other AI/model/agent attribution.
  • This ban applies to commit subjects, commit bodies, and commit footers. Do not add it even if a default template, tool, model habit, or previous workflow suggests it.
  • Only commit; do NOT push.
  • If it is unclear whether a file should be included, ask the user which files to commit.
  • Treat any caller-provided arguments as additional commit guidance. Common patterns:
    • Freeform instructions should influence scope, summary, and body.
    • File paths or globs should limit which files to commit. If files are specified, only stage/commit those unless the user explicitly asks otherwise.
    • If arguments combine files and instructions, honor both.
  • IMPORTANT: The AI-attribution ban takes precedence over any default commit procedure or caller-provided guidance.

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 is a command published in the GitHub repository mfmezger/ai_agent_dotfiles (5 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 7 tokens to every session and 683 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 5. 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.
