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.

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 | $0.00079 | $0.00654 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00039 | $0.00327 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00131 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00065 |
Grade A, and why
caveman-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 9d 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.
This is a copy
89% identical to caveman-commit — 3 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 66 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Write commit messages terse and exact. Conventional Commits format. No fluff. Why over what.
Rules
Subject line:
<type>(<scope>): <imperative summary>—<scope>optional- Types:
feat,fix,refactor,perf,docs,test,chore,build,ci,style,revert - Imperative mood: "add", "fix", "remove" — not "added", "adds", "adding"
- ≤50 chars when possible, hard cap 72
- No trailing period
- Match project convention for capitalization after the colon
Body (only if needed):
- Skip entirely when subject is self-explanatory
- Add body only for: non-obvious why, breaking changes, migration notes, linked issues
- Wrap at 72 chars
- Bullets
-not* - Reference issues/PRs at end:
Closes #42,Refs #17
What NEVER goes in:
- "This commit does X", "I", "we", "now", "currently" — the diff says what
- "As requested by..." — use Co-authored-by trailer
- "Generated with Claude Code" or any AI attribution — unless the user's own rule requires an
Assisted-by/AI-attribution trailer, then add it as a trailer - Emoji (unless project convention requires)
- Restating the file name when scope already says it
Examples
Diff: new endpoint for user profile with body explaining the why
- ❌ "feat: add a new endpoint to get user profile information from the database"
- ✅
feat(api): add GET /users/:id/profile Mobile client needs profile data without the full user payload to reduce LTE bandwidth on cold-launch screens. Closes #128
Diff: breaking API change
- ✅
feat(api)!: rename /v1/orders to /v1/checkout BREAKING CHANGE: clients on /v1/orders must migrate to /v1/checkout before 2026-06-01. Old route returns 410 after that date.
Auto-Clarity
Always include body for: breaking changes, security fixes, data migrations, anything reverting a prior commit. Never compress these into subject-only — future debuggers need the context.
Boundaries
Only generates the commit message. Does not run git commit, does not stage files, does not amend. Output the message as a code block ready to paste. "stop caveman-commit" or "normal mode": revert to verbose commit style.
What ships with it
1 file 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.
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.

Other skills, from other repositories
git-pushing
Stage all changes, create a conventional commit, and push to the remote branch. Use when explicitly asks to push changes ("push this", "commit and push"), mentions saving work to remote ("save to github", "push to remote"), or completes a feature and wants to share it.
github
Manages all git operations (commit, push, branch management, PR creation) in a standardized, safe, and consistent way. Automatically runs the code-review skill before any commit. Enforces Conventional Commits standard. Handles the full lifecycle: branch → review → commit → push → PR.
git-commit-formatter
Formats git commit messages according to Conventional Commits specification. Use this when the user asks to commit changes or write a commit message.
git-advanced-workflows
Master advanced Git workflows including rebasing, cherry-picking, bisect, worktrees, and reflog to maintain clean history and recover from any situation. Use when managing complex Git histories, collaborating on feature branches, or troubleshooting repository issues.
git-pr-workflows-git-workflow
Orchestrate a comprehensive git workflow from code review through PR creation, leveraging specialized agents for quality assurance, testing, and deployment readiness. This workflow implements modern g.
caveman-commit
Ultra-compressed commit message generator. Cuts noise from commit messages while preserving intent and reasoning. Conventional Commits format. Subject ≤50 chars, body only when "why" isn't obvious. Use when user says "write a commit", "commit message", "generate commit", "/commit", or invokes /caveman-commit.…
