commit

A commit command that saves only files already selected for the next Git change. Git is a tool for tracking file history and sharing code changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
It identifies the selected files, creates a short one-line commit message, checks pre-commit errors, and helps fix lint or type-check problems without selecting extra files.
Why use it?
It prevents unrelated files from being included and requires the commit message to accurately describe the staged work.

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.

Per session 0 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 340 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

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 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

You are about to commit staged files only.

    1. Identify staged files using git diff --cached --name-only.
    1. git commit -m "<message>" just the currently staged files with a proper one-liner commit message. it must be a one-liner message without any credit information like "generated with" or "co-authored by". 60 max char length. no semantic prefix. IMPORTANT: Analyze the actual changes (use git show --name-status or git diff --cached) to craft an accurate message that describes what was done - don't default to generic verbs like "add" when files were modified or updated.
    1. Check if any pre-commit hooks found issues (for example linting or TS errors).

If pre-commit hooks found issues:

  • 3.1 Use the repos maintenance commands like pnpm lint, pnpm tsc:check or similar to fix formatting, linting or type issues automatically.
  • 3.2 Fix any remaining issues manually.
  • 3.3 If you have to stage files, ONLY stage files you identified in step 1 (identify staged files).
  • 3.4 NEVER stage files that are not part of the list created in step 1 (identify staged files).
  • 3.5 If a maintenance script modified an unstaged file, leave it unstaged
  • 3.6 NEVER use git add . or similar bulk staging commands

Example: If only A.ts was originally staged, but the formatter also modified B.ts (which was unstaged), only stage A.ts for the commit. Leave B.ts unstaged.

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 walterra/claude-code-helpers (5 stars, last pushed 12mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 340 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.
