git-commit-staged

git-commit-staged is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from tomzx/agents. It costs 20 tokens per session (485 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool that creates a Conventional Commits message from only the changes already staged in a Git repository, then commits them. Staged changes are the specific files or edits selected for the next commit.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when part of your work is staged and you want a formatted commit created from that subset alone.
Why use it?
It lets you commit only the selected work while leaving other local edits untouched and gives that commit a consistent message.

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-commit-staged 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 4d 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

Generate Git Commit from Staged Changes

Generates a Conventional Commits-formatted commit message from only the staged changes, leaving unstaged changes untouched.

Prerequisites

  • git repository with at least one staged change (git add already run)
  • Working directory is the root of the repository

Steps

  1. Review staged changes only:
    git diff --staged
    
  2. Draft a commit message following the format below.
  3. Commit the staged changes:
    git commit -m "<type>(<scope>): <description>"
    

Commit Message Format

<type>(<scope>): <short description under 72 chars>

<optional body explaining what and why, not how>

Types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test, chore

Rules:

  • Use imperative mood: "Add feature" not "Added feature"
  • Keep subject line under 72 characters
  • Separate subject from body with a blank line when a body is included
  • Body explains what and why, not how

Example Usage

Scenario 1: Partial commit - only test changes staged Staged: tests/test_auth.py. Unstaged: src/auth.py. Commit: test(auth): add unit tests for JWT validation

Scenario 2: Config change staged Staged: pyproject.toml adding a new dependency. Commit: chore(deps): add structlog dependency

Scenario 3: Multi-file feature staged Staged: src/payments.py and migrations/0042_payments.sql.

feat(payments): add Stripe payment processing

Introduces PaymentService class and corresponding DB migration
for the payments table.

Useful Commands Reference

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.
