git-workflow

git-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from monkilabs/opencastle. It costs 36 tokens per session (417 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for using Git, a tool for tracking code changes, when creating branches, commits, and pull requests for review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting work from a branch, writing commits, pushing changes, opening a pull request, tracking discovered issues, or following project delivery checks.
Why use it?
It prevents unsafe delivery practices such as pushing directly to the main branch, omitting issue references, exposing secrets, or creating unclear pull requests.

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-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 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.

What it actually says

Git Workflow

Never push to main. Every change goes through a branch and a pull request, and a person merges it.

Branch From main: <type>/<slug>, or <type>/<issue-id>-<slug> when there is an issue. Types: feat, fix, refactor, perf, docs, chore
Commits Small and atomic, with an imperative subject — the issue ID first when there is one (TAS-42: Fix token refresh)
History Never --force or --amend on a shared branch; --force-with-lease on your own only
Secrets None in commits, pull request bodies or output; a leaked one is rotated at once

Deliver

  1. Commit, then push: git push -u origin <branch>.

  2. Open the pull request with its body in a file — an inline --body breaks on backticks and quotes in zsh:

    cat > /tmp/pr-body.md << 'EOF'
    Resolves TAS-42
    
    ## Changes
    - ...
    EOF
    GH_PAGER=cat gh pr create --base main --title "TAS-42: Short description" --body-file /tmp/pr-body.md
    
  3. Do not merge it. Link it from the tracker issue when there is one.

The tracker

When the project uses one, its conventions are in .opencastle/project/<tracker>-config.md and the skill bound to the task-management slot. Without its tools in this session, list the issues you would have created — title and acceptance criteria — in your answer, and carry on.

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.
