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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00015 | $0.00424 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00170 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00085 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00042 |
Grade A, and why
git-branch 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
git-branch
Create a new branch without overwriting work or choosing an unsafe base.
Naming
- Issue-backed work:
<type>/<short-desc>-<issueID>. - Other work:
<type>/<user-provided-name>; never invent an issue ID. - Valid types are
feat,fix,refactor,docs,test,perf, andchore. Preserve a valid user type, otherwise infer one and default tochore. - Keep the description short, lowercase, English, hyphen-separated, and valid for Git. Remove punctuation, filler, and repeated separators.
When an issue ID is provided, use one gh issue view <issueID> --json title,body,number call for naming context. If it fails, continue only when the
request is enough and report that the issue was not verified.
Create
Check the current worktree, branch, and target branch first. Stop if the worktree intent is ambiguous, the target already exists, or the current/base branch is unsafe. Validate the name with:
git check-ref-format --branch <branch-name>
Use the repository's documented base, otherwise main. In the same repository
prefer origin/<base> over upstream/<base>; use upstream only for a fork or
explicit guidance. Fetch or compare freshness only when it can change the
choice of base. If creating from a stale local base, confirm before updating or
use a freshly fetched remote base and report that the local base was unchanged.
git switch -c <branch-name> <base>
git switch --no-track -c <branch-name> origin/<base>
Verify the resulting branch. Do not switch to an existing branch, overwrite, reset, stash, delete, or force anything without explicit user intent. Do not create protected/shared base branches.
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.
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.

git-branch is a skill published in the GitHub repository Terry-Mao/AICodingFlow (169 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 15 tokens to every session and 424 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-30.
Other skills, from other repositories
merge-batch
Prepare and merge an owner-selected PR batch with contributor credit and exact-candidate admission. Use for a pasted PR list; combined focused validation is diagnostic, and every actual landing still requires its applicable checks and authorization.
prowler-commit
Creates professional git commits following conventional-commits format. Trigger: When creating commits, after completing code changes, when user asks to commit.
gh-auth-isolation
Safely manage multiple GitHub identities (EMU + personal) in agent workflows.
comet-github
A routing guide for Comet-related GitHub work. It directs requests about pull requests, issues, CI failures, ideas, and fixes to the appropriate review or implementation process.
github-skill
Work with GitHub via the gh CLI — clone repositories, create/list/merge pull requests, create/list issues, and run any other gh command (API calls, workflow runs, releases, repo administration). List operations return parsed JSON.
release-helper
Ensures configuration and code changes are released correctly. Use PROACTIVELY whenever you edit config.json, change any setting, or fix a configuration bug in this project, so the change reaches production.
