git-workflow

A set of Git rules for branching, commits, pull requests, and releases. Git is the tool used to track code changes, while a pull request is a proposed change submitted for review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting work, naming branches, writing Conventional Commits, opening pull requests, and deciding which branch should receive a change.
Why use it?
It reduces accidental changes to production branches and makes reviews and automatic version updates follow a consistent process.

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

git-workflow 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 Workflow

  • main = production, develop = development.
  • Branch new work out from main (e.g. feat/..., fix/...).
  • Open a PR against the target branch (normally develop); merge only after review and passing CI.
  • Never commit directly to main or develop. The single exception is the automated version-bump commit on main (handled by .github/workflows/release.yml).
  • Use Conventional Commits (enforced by commitlint). These prefixes directly control the automated version bump on merge to main:
    • BREAKING CHANGE or !: → major bump
    • feat: → minor bump
    • fix:, chore:, docs:, etc. → patch bump

When asked to "commit" or "push" work, create or use a feature branch and prefer opening a PR; do not push straight to main/develop. See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full process.

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.
