commit

A Git commit helper that creates commits using Conventional Commits, a standard format for describing changes. It reads the repository guide, reviews changes, stages relevant files, and signs off the commit.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps prepare and create properly formatted commits for staged or unstaged changes.
Why use it?
It removes the need to remember commit-format rules and helps avoid committing the wrong files or adding unwanted metadata.

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

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 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.

What it actually says

Create a git commit for the current staged/unstaged changes using Conventional Commits.

Read AGENTS.md first. It is the canonical project guide for this repository.

Rules:

  1. Run git status and git diff to understand what changed
  2. Stage relevant files (prefer specific files over git add -A)
  3. Write a commit message following Conventional Commits format
  4. Use --signoff to sign off using the committer's git config (do NOT hardcode any name/email)
  5. Do NOT add Co-Authored-By or any other trailers beyond Signed-off-by
  6. If there are no changes, say so and stop

Commit format:

<type>[optional scope]: <description>

Types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, build, ci, chore

Scope (optional): a noun describing the affected area in parentheses. Common scopes: config, api, proxy, db, e2e, docker, ci.

Subject line rules:

  • Imperative mood ("add", not "added" or "adds")
  • Do NOT capitalize the first letter after the type prefix
  • Do NOT end with a period
  • Keep under 72 characters total

For breaking changes, add ! after the type/scope:

feat(config)!: rename queue config key

Examples of good messages:

  • "feat(api): add support for rejection reason"
  • "fix(config): handle invalid regex on commitConfig"
  • "refactor(ts): remove any/as usages in push-actions"
  • "test(proxy): add tests for Git hosts other than GitHub"
  • "docs: update architecture diagram in Architecture.md"
  • "build: bump express to 5.2.1"
  • "chore: remove unused import in services/push.ts"

Commit command:

git commit --signoff -m "<type>[scope]: <description>"

Do NOT:

  • Use long multi-line messages for simple changes
  • Add Co-Authored-By trailers
  • Use past tense ("added", "fixed")
  • Hardcode any author name or email
  • Omit the type prefix
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.

commit is a skill published in the GitHub repository finos/git-proxy (243 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 475 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
