incremental-commit

A workflow guide for making small, structured Git commits during backend, frontend, database, or DevOps work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to commit each planned task with a Conventional Commit message after the build and relevant tests are green.
Why use it?
It prevents many unrelated changes from being bundled into one difficult-to-review commit and requires tests to pass first.

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

incremental-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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 163 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Incremental Commit

Canonical rules: AGENTS.md §11. This skill is the agent checklist.

Rule

Commit after each task in the plan breakdown — not one giant commit at module end.

Message structure (required)

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

[optional body]

[optional footer]

Subject line

Rule Detail
Format type(scope): subject
Length ≤ 72 characters total preferred; hard stop ~100
Voice Imperative, present: add, fix, register — not added / adds
Case Lowercase after colon; no trailing period
Focus One logical change; say what (and why only if not obvious)

Good (English)

feat(auth): add refresh token rotation
fix(api): apply tenant filter on list query
chore(skills): register saas-product-ui in manifest
docs(v2): summarize memory and product-ui rollout

Ví dụ tốt (tiếng Việt)

feat(auth): thêm xoay vòng refresh token
fix(api): áp dụng bộ lọc tenant trên truy vấn danh sách
chore(skills): đăng ký saas-product-ui vào manifest
docs(v2): tóm tắt memory và rollout product-ui

type + scope luôn tiếng Anh/ASCII. Subject/body có thể Việt nếu team thống nhất một ngôn ngữ trong repo.

Bad / Tránh

feat: updates
Fixed bug.
sửa lỗi
feat(auth): Added Refresh Token Rotation And Also Refactored Middleware.
feat(auth): Đã thêm xoay vòng token và refactor middleware luôn

Types

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.

incremental-commit is a skill published in the GitHub repository phuoctrung-ppt/ai-sdlc-workflow (2 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 1,167 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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.
