git-workflow

git-workflow is a skill for Claude Code from povvo/claudikins-kernel. It costs 54 tokens per session (3,207 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow guide for breaking development plans into isolated tasks and reviewing them in controlled batches. A Git branch is a separate line of project history, and the guide uses one branch per task to keep changes apart.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when running the execute command, dividing plans into tasks, choosing batch sizes, setting up two-stage reviews, or handling agents that get stuck or fail.
Why use it?
It prevents parallel agents from polluting one another’s work, encourages manageable batches, and adds human checkpoints before changes are combined.

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.

Fable 5.1 $0.00054 $0.03207
Opus 5.5 $0.00022 $0.01283

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 2mo 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 Workflow Methodology

When to use this skill

Use this skill when you need to:

  • Run the claudikins-kernel:execute command
  • Decompose plans into executable tasks
  • Set up two-stage code review
  • Decide batch sizes and checkpoints
  • Handle stuck agents or failed tasks

Core Philosophy

"I'd use 5-7 agents per SESSION, not 30 per batch." - Boris

Execution is about isolation, verification, and human checkpoints. Not speed.

The Six Principles

  1. One task = one branch - Isolation prevents pollution
  2. Fresh context per task - context: fork gives a clean slate
  3. Two-stage review - Spec compliance first, then code quality
  4. Human checkpoints between batches - Not between individual tasks
  5. Commands own git - Agents never checkout/merge/push
  6. Features are the unit - Batch at feature level, not task level

Batch Size Guidance (GOSPEL)

Wrong: 30 agents for 10 tasks (3 per task micro-management) Right: 5-7 agents total (feature-level batches)

Scenario Wrong Right
10 tasks, 5 features 30 micro-task agents 5-7 feature agents
Simple refactor 10 agents for tiny changes 1-2 feature agents

Default --batch 1 is correct. Features are the unit of work.

Task Decomposition

From a plan, extract tasks that are:

Quality Definition Example
Atomic Completable in one agent session "Add auth middleware" not "Build auth system"
Testable Has measurable acceptance criteria "Returns 401 for invalid token"
Independent Minimal dependencies on other tasks Can be reviewed in isolation
Right-sized Not too small (noise) or large (context death) 50-200 lines of changes

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.
