Git Conventional Commits

Git Conventional Commits is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from GktuOktay/ai-skills. It costs 44 tokens per session (696 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Git naming guide for branches and commit messages based on the Conventional Commits format. Git is a tool for tracking code changes, while a branch is a separate line of development.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to name branches and write commits for features, bug fixes, urgent fixes, maintenance, documentation, refactoring, and other code changes.
Why use it?
It helps teams understand changes from their names alone and keeps project history consistent. Standard names also make features, fixes, maintenance, and documentation easier to distinguish.

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 Conventional Commits 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 10d 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.

Git Conventional Commits Guide

This skill provides guidelines for writing clean, structured, and standardized commit messages and branch names using the Conventional Commits specification.

Branch Naming Conventions

Always use descriptive and structured branch names. This helps in understanding the context of the work.

Format

<type>/<issue-ticket>-<short-description>

Types

  • feature/ or feat/: For new features
  • bugfix/ or fix/: For bug fixes
  • hotfix/: For critical production fixes
  • chore/: For maintenance, dependency updates, etc.
  • docs/: For documentation changes

Examples

  • feature/PROJ-123-add-user-login
  • fix/PROJ-456-resolve-null-pointer
  • chore/update-dependencies

Conventional Commits Specification

Commit messages should be structured as follows:

<type>[optional scope]: <description>

[optional body]

[optional footer(s)]

Commit Types

Type Description
feat A new feature
fix A bug fix
docs Documentation only changes
style Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc)
refactor A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
perf A code change that improves performance
test Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
build Changes that affect the build system or external dependencies
ci Changes to our CI configuration files and scripts
chore Other changes that don't modify src or test files
revert Reverts a previous commit

Scope (Optional)

The scope provides context to where the changes were made (e.g., auth, ui, database). Example: feat(auth): implement JWT token verification

Description

  • Use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes".
  • Don't capitalize the first letter.
  • No dot (.) at the end.

Body (Optional)

  • Just as in the description, use the imperative, present tense.
  • The body should include the motivation for the change and contrast this with previous behavior.

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.
