commit is a skill for Claude Code from ostin-pil/aboard. It costs 13 tokens per session (514 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for staging and committing project changes with commit messages in the form prefix(topic): description. It also defines files and folders that must not be committed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing pending changes, selecting files to stage, choosing a commit type such as fix or docs, and creating a short conventional commit message.
Why use it?
It reduces inconsistent commit messages and helps prevent secrets, generated files, dependencies, and temporary files from being included accidentally.

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

commit 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.

What it actually says

Commit pending changes using the project convention: prefix(topic): short description

Arguments

  • No arguments: auto-generate the commit message from the diff
  • $ARGUMENTS provided: use it as the commit message (must still follow convention)

Process

  1. Run git status (never use -uall) and git diff to see all pending changes
  2. Exclude these from staging — never commit them:
    • .env, credentials.json, secrets
    • node_modules/, .next/, out/, build/
    • /tmp/ debug logs, scratch files
    • .DS_Store
  3. Stage all remaining changed/new files with git add <file>... (list files explicitly, never git add -A)
  4. If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use it as the commit message. Otherwise, analyze the diff and generate one:
    • Prefix — infer from the nature of the change:
      • feat — new feature or capability
      • fix — bug fix
      • docs — documentation, session logs, research
      • chore — config, scripts, tooling, dependencies
    • Topic — the area of the codebase, e.g.: claims, graph, dossier, forecast, schema, jsonld, ui, data, lib, scripts, research, sessions, config, deps, claude
    • Description — concise, lowercase, under 72 chars total, focuses on "why" not "what"
  5. Commit using a HEREDOC (no Co-Authored-By trailer, ever):
    git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
    prefix(topic): short description
    EOF
    )"
    
  6. Report: show the commit hash and full message

Rules

  • One logical change per commit — if changes span unrelated areas, ask the user to split
  • Title must be under 72 characters
  • Never add Co-Authored-By trailers
  • Never use git add -A or git add .
  • If there are no changes to commit, say so and stop

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.
