speckit-git-initialize

speckit-git-initialize is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bl1nk-bot/agent-library. It costs 16 tokens per session (399 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of speckit-git-initialize, CC0-1.0.

A Git setup helper that creates a Git repository and makes its first commit when the project is not already under Git. Git records changes to code over time.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to initialize version control for a new project, including optional project-specific setup such as ignore files or Git hooks.
Why use it?
It removes the manual setup needed to begin tracking a project with Git. It skips initialization when Git is unavailable or the folder already belongs to a repository.

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

speckit-git-initialize 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 4d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to speckit-git-initialize — 7 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Initialize Git Repository

Initialize a Git repository in the current project directory if one does not already exist.

Execution

Run the appropriate script from the project root:

  • Bash: .specify/extensions/git/scripts/bash/initialize-repo.sh
  • PowerShell: .specify/extensions/git/scripts/powershell/initialize-repo.ps1

If the extension scripts are not found, fall back to:

  • Bash: git init && git add . && git commit -m "Initial commit from Specify template"
  • PowerShell: git init; git add .; git commit -m "Initial commit from Specify template"

The script handles all checks internally:

  • Skips if Git is not available
  • Skips if already inside a Git repository
  • Runs git init, git add ., and git commit with an initial commit message

Customization

Replace the script to add project-specific Git initialization steps:

  • Custom .gitignore templates
  • Default branch naming (git config init.defaultBranch)
  • Git LFS setup
  • Git hooks installation
  • Commit signing configuration
  • Git Flow initialization

Output

On success:

  • ✓ Git repository initialized

Graceful Degradation

If Git is not installed:

  • Warn the user
  • Skip repository initialization
  • The project continues to function without Git (specs can still be created under specs/)

If Git is installed but git init, git add ., or git commit fails:

  • Surface the error to the user
  • Stop this command rather than continuing with a partially initialized repository
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.
