A Git workflow helper for managing feature branches, syncing with the main branch, creating pull requests, and handling merges and conflicts. It also supports stacked branches, where related branches build on one another.

It helps create and sync branches, resolve Git conflicts, open pull requests, and clean up merged branches.

It reduces the manual steps and errors involved in moving a feature from branch creation to merge.

git-town — Skill for Claude Code by FortiumPartners/ensemble

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Any agent

npx skills add FortiumPartners/ensemble --skill git-town

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/FortiumPartners/ensemble

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install ensemble-git, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 3 skills, 3 agents.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00127	$0.05075
Opus 5.5	$0.00051	$0.02030
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00025	$0.01015
Haiku 4.5	$0.00013	$0.00507

Security

Grade A, and why

git-town scanned grade A 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/test-validate.sh, scripts/validate-git-town.sh, tests/comprehensive-test.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Git-Town Workflow Skill

Skill Type: Technical Workflow Estimated Learning Time: 30 minutes Proficiency Levels: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced

Mission

Provide comprehensive git-town workflow integration for Claude Code agents, enabling autonomous branch management, PR creation, and error recovery without interactive prompts. This skill empowers agents to execute complex git workflows with zero user intervention by leveraging git-town's CLI flags for non-interactive operation. Target audience includes orchestrator agents (tech-lead-orchestrator, git-workflow) and developer agents (frontend-developer, backend-developer) performing feature development, bug fixes, and release workflows. Key capabilities include validation-first execution with structured exit codes, standardized error handling patterns for merge conflicts and remote failures, stacked branch workflows for complex features, offline development mode support, and GitHub CLI integration for automated PR creation. Agents using this skill can autonomously manage the complete feature lifecycle from branch creation through PR merge without requiring user intervention for routine git operations.

Skill Loading Mechanism

Discovery Paths

Git-town skill files are located using XDG Base Directory Specification with the following search priority:

Primary: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ensemble/skills/git-town/ (user-specific configuration)
Fallback: ~/.config/ensemble/skills/git-town/ (default XDG location)
Legacy: ~/.ensemble/skills/git-town/ (backward compatibility)
Plugin: <plugin-root>/packages/git/skills/git-town/ (bundled with ensemble-git plugin)

Agents should check paths in order and use the first match. Plugin-bundled files serve as the fallback when user configuration is absent.

Loading Performance

Git-town skill loading is optimized for agent efficiency with the following performance characteristics:

Target: <100ms for full skill load (SKILL.md + REFERENCE.md + ERROR_HANDLING.md combined)
Caching: Skill content is cached in agent context memory after first load, with cache invalidation triggered by file modification timestamps (mtime comparison)
Lazy loading: Templates and migration guides are loaded on-demand only when agents query specific sections, reducing initial memory footprint
Indexing: Section headers are indexed during initial load using hash maps for O(1) lookup of subsections, enabling fast targeted queries

Files

What ships with it

24 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

git-town is a skill published in the GitHub repository FortiumPartners/ensemble (12 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 127 tokens to every session and 5,075 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
