What is git-workflow?

Guidelines for using Git, the tool that records code history and coordinates changes between developers.

Use them when committing changes, preparing pull requests, managing branches, or choosing commit message formats.

They help keep commits, branches, pull requests, and release work understandable and consistent.

SkillSpector: 4 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

high Tool Misuse · line 242
Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).

Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

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	$0.00030	$0.02229
Opus 5.5	$0.00012	$0.00892
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00006	$0.00446
Haiku 4.5	$0.00003	$0.00223

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 2mo 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 Workflow Best Practices

Purpose

This skill provides guidance on Git workflow best practices to ensure clean commit history, effective collaboration, and maintainable version control in your projects.

When to Use This Skill

Auto-activates when:

Mentions of "git", "commit", "branch", "merge", "pull request"
Working with version control operations
Creating or reviewing commits
Managing branches and releases

Commit Messages

Conventional Commits Format

Follow the Conventional Commits specification:

<type>(<scope>): <subject>

<body>

<footer>

Types:

feat: New feature
fix: Bug fix
docs: Documentation only
style: Code style changes (formatting, no logic change)
refactor: Code refactoring (no feature or bug fix)
perf: Performance improvements
test: Adding or updating tests
build: Build system or dependency changes
ci: CI/CD configuration changes
chore: Other changes (tooling, maintenance)

Examples:

feat(auth): add OAuth2 authentication support

Implement OAuth2 authentication flow using the authorization
code grant type. Supports Google and GitHub providers.

Closes #123

fix(api): handle null response from database query

Previously, null responses would cause the API to crash.
Now returns 404 with appropriate error message.

Fixes #456

Commit Message Best Practices

Use imperative mood in subject line: "Add feature" not "Added feature"
Keep subject line under 50 characters
Capitalize subject line
No period at end of subject line
Separate subject from body with blank line
Wrap body at 72 characters
Explain what and why, not how
Reference issues/tickets in footer

Branching Strategy

Branch Naming Convention

Use descriptive, hierarchical branch names:

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

Examples:

feature/123-oauth-authentication
fix/456-null-pointer-crash
docs/789-api-documentation
refactor/321-simplify-parser
hotfix/999-security-vulnerability

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 jefflester/claude-skills-supercharged (43 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 2,229 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
