git-workflow

git-workflow is a skill for Claude Code from fprochazka/claude-code-plugins. It costs 55 tokens per session (3,026 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of guidelines for organizing Git commits, branches, and merge requests—the requests used to propose code changes for review. It focuses on making a change history easy to understand, rather than teaching Git commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps decide where to split commits, how to order them, how to structure a branch, how to write commit messages, and how to handle review feedback and merging.
Why use it?
It helps prevent confusing commit histories where related work is split incorrectly or unrelated work is mixed together. Reviewers can follow what changed and why, one commit at a time.

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-workflow 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 151 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

git-workflow

How to think about commits, branches, and merge requests — the shape the history should take, not the commands to get there.

The underlying principle: a reviewer should be able to read the branch commit-by-commit and never be confused about what each commit does or why. Every rule below serves that goal. When a rule fights it, the rule loses.

The test that decides every commit boundary

Before splitting anything, classify the pieces as siblings or ancestors.

  • Siblings — complete on their own terms, revertible in any order, each one meaningful on master to somebody who never saw the branch. Siblings stay separate commits.
  • Ancestors — incomplete halves of a single behaviour, each one meaningful only once the next one lands. Ancestors are one commit, no matter how logically they were built in sequence.

The mechanical form: if commit N+1's subject cannot be understood without the artifact commit N introduced, they are the same commit.

The order work gets done is almost always an ancestor chain: add the columns, persist them, wire them into the callers, expose them on the endpoint, regenerate the client, build the UI. That is a correct working sequence and a wrong commit sequence. The atomic commit is the whole vertical slice — schema, domain logic, transport, generated client, frontend, tests — because none of those halves means anything alone.

What makes a commit atomic

An atomic commit solves exactly one thing — not less, not more, with all related changes included and all unrelated changes excluded. "One thing" is one complete change in what the system does, cut through every layer it needs. Vertical slices can and should be small, but each one is a fully functioning increment: it builds, its tests pass, it makes sense on master alone.

Is atomic:

  • A feature cut vertically: migration + entity + domain logic + endpoint + regenerated client + UI + its tests, in one commit.
  • A bugfix that changes only the lines needed for the fix, with the test that now passes.
  • A pure rename/move touching many files but changing no behaviour.
  • A formatting-only commit, or a single typo fix.

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-workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository fprochazka/claude-code-plugins (15 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 3,026 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
