git-workflow

git-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from dotnet/maui-labs. It costs 16 tokens per session (1,557 once invoked), scanned C, a copy of git-workflow, MIT.

A branching and release workflow for a software project using Git, a tool for tracking code changes. It uses separate branches for released code, integration work, and early preview releases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating issue branches, opening draft pull requests, committing changes, publishing preview packages, or merging work into the project’s integration branch.
Why use it?
It gives feature work a consistent starting point and destination. It also separates stable releases from preview and early-access packages.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is git worktree add ../squad-195 -b squad/195-fix-stamp-bug origin/dev.

Good fit Use it when creating issue branches, opening draft pull requests, committing changes, publishing preview packages, or merging work into the project’s integration branch.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 C, and why

git-workflow scanned grade C with 1 finding 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

If a worktree was deleted manually (rm -rf), `git worktree prune` recovers the state.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 205 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Context

Squad uses a three-branch model. All feature work starts from dev, not main.

Branch Purpose Publishes
main Released, tagged, in-npm code only npm publish on tag
dev Integration branch — all feature work lands here npm publish --tag preview on merge
insiders Early-access channel — synced from dev npm publish --tag insiders on sync

Branch Naming Convention

Issue branches MUST use: squad/{issue-number}-{kebab-case-slug}

Examples:

  • squad/195-fix-version-stamp-bug
  • squad/42-add-profile-api

Workflow for Issue Work

  1. Branch from dev:

    git checkout dev
    git pull origin dev
    git checkout -b squad/{issue-number}-{slug}
    
  2. Mark issue in-progress:

    gh issue edit {number} --add-label "status:in-progress"
    
  3. Create draft PR targeting dev:

    gh pr create --base dev --title "{description}" --body "Closes #{issue-number}" --draft
    
  4. Do the work. Make changes, write tests, commit with issue reference.

  5. Push and mark ready:

    git push -u origin squad/{issue-number}-{slug}
    gh pr ready
    
  6. After merge to dev:

    git checkout dev
    git pull origin dev
    git branch -d squad/{issue-number}-{slug}
    git push origin --delete squad/{issue-number}-{slug}
    

Parallel Multi-Issue Work (Worktrees)

When the coordinator routes multiple issues simultaneously (e.g., "fix bugs X, Y, and Z"), use git worktree to give each agent an isolated working directory. No filesystem collisions, no branch-switching overhead.

When to Use Worktrees vs Sequential

Scenario Strategy
Single issue Standard workflow above — no worktree needed
2+ simultaneous issues in same repo Worktrees — one per issue
Work spanning multiple repos Separate clones as siblings (see Multi-Repo below)

Setup

From the main clone (must be on dev or any branch):

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.
