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-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 7d 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.

What it actually says

Git Commit Helper (No Scope)

Generate conventional commit messages without a scope.

When to use this skill

  • The user asks for a commit message
  • Staged changes exist
  • The user is about to run git commit
  • The user mentions conventional or semantic commits

Workflow

  1. Review staged files and the staged diff.
  2. Identify the primary change type and any breaking changes.
  3. Draft a commit message using the format below.
  4. Provide a short rationale and ask if the user wants adjustments.

Commit format (no scope)

<type>: <subject>

<body>

<footer>

Types

  • feat: New feature
  • fix: Bug fix
  • docs: Documentation changes
  • style: Formatting only (no logic change)
  • refactor: Code restructuring without behavior change
  • perf: Performance improvements
  • test: Test additions or fixes
  • build: Build system or tooling changes
  • ci: CI/CD pipeline changes
  • chore: Maintenance tasks

Subject checklist

  • Imperative mood ("add", "fix", "update")
  • 50-72 characters max
  • No trailing period
  • Describes what and why, not how
  • Lowercase after the type

Breaking changes

If the change is breaking, include a footer:

BREAKING CHANGE: <what changed and how to migrate>

Examples

Feature

feat: add jwt authentication for api requests

- implement token validation middleware
- add login and refresh endpoints

Closes #42

Fix

fix: prevent memory leak in user list

Clean up subscriptions when the component unmounts.

Refactor

refactor: extract repository layer for database access

No functional changes. Improves testability and separation.

Breaking change

feat: update user api response structure

BREAKING CHANGE: response is now { data, metadata }.

Output expectations

  • Provide the recommended commit message in full.
  • Explain the chosen type and any breaking change rationale.
Files

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.

Changes

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.
