git-workflow

git-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ApexIQ/skillsmith. It costs 24 tokens per session (495 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for using Git, the system that records changes to code. It covers branches, commit messages, and pull requests, which are proposed code changes for team review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating branches, writing commits, or preparing pull requests. It helps organize new features, bug fixes, refactoring, documentation, tests, and build changes.
Why use it?
It removes guesswork about where changes belong and how to describe them. Consistent Git practices make it easier to review changes, trace bugs, and work with others.

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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

🌳 Git Workflow

Rule: Good git hygiene makes debugging and collaboration 10x easier.

1. Branching Strategy

Branch Purpose Merges To
main Production-ready code -
develop Integration branch main
feature/<name> New features develop
fix/<name> Bug fixes develop or main (hotfix)
  • Naming: feature/add-command-palette, fix/email-sync-timeout.

2. Commit Messages (Conventional Commits)

<type>(<scope>): <short description>

<body - optional>
Type Use Case
feat New feature
fix Bug fix
refactor Code change that doesn't fix a bug or add a feature
docs Documentation only
test Adding or fixing tests
chore Build process, dependencies

Examples:

  • feat(inbox): add command palette (Cmd+K)
  • fix(sync): handle timeout errors gracefully
  • refactor(rules): extract validation logic to service

3. Pull Request Conventions

  • Title: Same format as commit message.
  • Description:
    • What: 1-2 sentences on the change.
    • Why: Link to issue/task.
    • How to test: Steps for reviewer.
  • Size: <300 lines. Larger PRs should be split.

Examples

  • Good PR: feat(dashboard): add priority radar component - 150 lines, tests included.
  • Bad PR: updates - 800 lines, no description, touches 20 files.

Guidelines

  • Commit often, push daily.
  • Rebase feature branches on develop before PR.
  • Squash commits when merging to keep history clean.
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.
