git-push-safety

A set of rules for checking outgoing Git changes for secrets, private files, and unintended generated files before pushing them to a remote repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before running git push: identify the destination, run the leak check, and review the commits and diff.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of publishing sensitive information or files that should not be committed.

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-push-safety 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 Push Safety

Before any git push from a repository with task-agent tooling available:

  1. Identify the target remote with git remote -v.

  2. Run:

    .venv/bin/python skills/repo-health/scripts/check_pre_push.py --remote <remote>
    
  3. Review outgoing commits and diff for local artifacts, secrets, private paths, or unintended generated files.

  4. Do not push if the check fails; fix the diff or record the blocker in the task artifacts.

The pre-push check is a guardrail, not a substitute for reviewing the actual outgoing change.

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.
