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.

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 | $0.00029 | $0.01021 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00408 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00204 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00102 |
Grade A, and why
Git Commit Helper 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.

Git Commit Helper
Quick start
Analyze staged changes and generate commit message:
# View staged changes
git diff --staged
# Generate commit message based on changes
# (Claude will analyze the diff and suggest a message)
Commit message format
Follow conventional commits format:
<type>(<scope>): <description>
[optional body]
[optional footer]
Types
- feat: New feature
- fix: Bug fix
- docs: Documentation changes
- style: Code style changes (formatting, missing semicolons)
- refactor: Code refactoring
- test: Adding or updating tests
- chore: Maintenance tasks
Examples
Feature commit:
feat(auth): add JWT authentication
Implement JWT-based authentication system with:
- Login endpoint with token generation
- Token validation middleware
- Refresh token support
Bug fix:
fix(api): handle null values in user profile
Prevent crashes when user profile fields are null.
Add null checks before accessing nested properties.
Refactor:
refactor(database): simplify query builder
Extract common query patterns into reusable functions.
Reduce code duplication in database layer.
Analyzing changes
Review what's being committed:
# Show files changed
git status
# Show detailed changes
git diff --staged
# Show statistics
git diff --staged --stat
# Show changes for specific file
git diff --staged path/to/file
Commit message guidelines
DO:
- Use imperative mood ("add feature" not "added feature")
- Keep first line under 50 characters
- Capitalize first letter
- No period at end of summary
- Explain WHY not just WHAT in body
DON'T:
- Use vague messages like "update" or "fix stuff"
- Include technical implementation details in summary
- Write paragraphs in summary line
- Use past tense
Multi-file commits
When committing multiple related changes:
refactor(core): restructure authentication module
- Move auth logic from controllers to service layer
- Extract validation into separate validators
- Update tests to use new structure
- Add integration tests for auth flow
Breaking change: Auth service now requires config object
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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 204 lines · 29 tokens per session scan A 37344ea18483
Git Commit Helper is a skill published in the GitHub repository Justdvp/claude-code-templates (7 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 1,021 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 2026-08-31.
Other skills, from other repositories
sk-hashline-protocol
Enforces hash-anchored line verification to prevent stale-line edits during file mutations. Use when any agent performs file mutations in a worktree — mandates that read lines carry content-identifier hashes and that those hashes are verified before an edit is committed.
agentic-jujutsu
Quantum-resistant, self-learning version control for AI agents with ReasoningBank intelligence and multi-agent coordination.
github-automation
GitHub workflow automation, PR management, issue tracking, and code review coordination. Integrates with GitHub Actions and repository management. Use when: PR creation, code review, issue management, release automation, workflow setup. Skip when: local-only changes, non-GitHub repositories.
commit-context
Trace a file, function, or line back to the agent session that produced its current commit. Use when the user asks "why is this code here", "what was the agent doing when this changed", "who wrote this", or wants context on a specific location in the codebase.
commit-history
List recent git commits linked to agent sessions, optionally filtered by branch or repo. Use when the user asks "show agent commits", "what has the agent shipped", "list linked commits", or wants commits with their session context.
changelog
Auto-generate a changelog from git commits and sprint data. Internal and player-facing versions.
