trove-commit is a skill for Claude Code from bravew/trove. It costs 26 tokens per session (607 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Git workflow guide for making small, reviewable commits with consistent messages. Git is a tool for tracking changes to code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating, drafting, or reviewing atomic commits using types such as feature, bug fix, documentation, or test changes.
Why use it?
It removes guesswork about how to split changes and describe them. Consistent messages make project history easier to understand and review.

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

trove-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 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 78 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Session Init

This skill ships Trove conventions. Prefer existing project patterns over generic best practices when they conflict.

Commit Message Conventions

Format

<type>(<scope>): <subject>

<body>

<footer>

Types

Type When to Use
feat New feature
fix Bug fix
refactor Code restructuring (no behavior change)
docs Documentation only
test Adding or updating tests
chore Build, deps, config changes
perf Performance improvement
style Code style (formatting, semicolons)
ci CI/CD configuration

Rules

  1. Subject line: imperative mood, lowercase, no period, max 72 chars
  2. Body: explain WHY, not WHAT (the diff shows what changed)
  3. Scope: optional, identifies the module/area (e.g., auth, api, ui)
  4. Breaking changes: add BREAKING CHANGE: in footer

Stacking and prose

Commit liberally and treat each commit as a future PR: prefer several small, ordered, independently reviewable commits over one fat commit. Rebase them into a clean sequence before opening the PR. Run the message body through trove-unslop (its benefits-from) so it reads as plain prose — explain the why, drop boilerplate.

Direct Commit Workflow

When invoked as an action, create a commit only for a single logical change.

  1. Inspect git status --short, recent commits, and the relevant diff.
  2. If paths are provided, limit the review and staging to those paths.
  3. Stage specific files with git add <paths>; avoid git add -A unless the whole working tree is clearly one change.
  4. Create the commit with the conventional subject and a body when the why is not obvious.
  5. Report the commit hash, message, and files committed.

If the working tree mixes unrelated changes, stop and name the smaller commit slices. Never include AI-generated or co-author boilerplate.

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.
