git-rebase

A careful workflow for resolving conflicts during a Git rebase, which reapplies one branch's changes on top of another. It preserves the required intent from both sides and leaves the files in a clean, resolved state.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect conflicted files, resolve each conflict, stage understood resolutions, check Git's status, and leave the final commit to the integration workflow.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of losing behavior, weakening tests, or hiding errors while combining competing code changes.

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-rebase 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 2d 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.

Git Rebase Conflict Resolution

Use this skill when Compozy asks you to resolve conflicts in an integration worktree. The goal is a clean merge result, not a clever shortcut.

Core Rules

  1. Understand every conflicted hunk before editing it.
  2. Preserve important behavior from both sides whenever possible.
  3. Prefer the smallest readable merge that keeps the code idiomatic for the affected language and project.
  4. Do not delete tests, weaken assertions, suppress lint, swallow errors, or otherwise hide a failing invariant.
  5. Do not commit. Compozy owns the final squash commit.
  6. Do not leave conflict markers in any file.
  7. If a conflict is unsafe or unclear, leave it unresolved so Compozy can abort and roll back honestly.

Required Workflow

  1. Inspect the conflicted files listed in the prompt.
  2. For each hunk, identify what the integration branch changed and what the incoming task changed.
  3. Edit the file so both sides' required behavior is represented.
  4. Run only language-specific formatting commands that are clearly required for the files you edited and are safe for this repository.
  5. Stage resolved files with git add.
  6. Check git status --porcelain; no unmerged entries may remain.
  7. Report what was resolved and any files that remain unsafe.

Resolution Guidance

  • For Go files, keep error wrapping with fmt.Errorf("context: %w", err).
  • For Go files, preserve context.Context propagation and cancellation behavior.
  • Preserve synchronization ownership; do not introduce unmanaged background work.
  • Keep tests focused on behavior and invariants, not implementation details.
  • When both sides add cases to a table test, combine the cases unless they prove the same invariant twice.
  • When both sides alter an interface, update every implementation instead of guessing from the conflicted file alone.

Fail-Honestly Criteria

Stop and leave the conflict unresolved when:

  • you cannot tell which side owns the invariant,
  • resolving would require deleting behavior from either side without evidence,
  • conflict markers remain, or
  • a binary/generated file conflict cannot be validated safely.

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.

git-rebase is a skill published in the GitHub repository compozy/kb (101 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 33 tokens to every session and 520 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
