git-workflow

git-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from troyjthomas/ios-agent-skills. It costs 64 tokens per session (2,441 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of Git working rules for parallel development, where separate workspaces let multiple coding sessions handle different parts of a project. Git is a tool for tracking code changes, and a pull request is a reviewable proposal to merge those changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose branch names, create fresh branches, open pull requests early, protect shared files, order merges, and save checkpoints during parallel work.
Why use it?
It reduces conflicts, stale branches, and hard-to-review changes when several workstreams modify the same repository. It also encourages early checks through continuous integration, which automatically builds or tests changes.

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-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 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 253 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Git Workflow

Parallel workstreams are powerful until they step on each other. This skill prevents that.

Branching Convention

Every Conductor workspace creates its own branch automatically. Name your workspaces descriptively:

workspace: build-projects-home     → branch: build-projects-home
workspace: build-settings-flow     → branch: build-settings-flow
workspace: build-explore-tab       → branch: build-explore-tab

Branch-per-Iteration Rhythm

Whether you're in Conductor or running a single Claude Code session, the rhythm that works on production builds:

  1. Always branch from a freshly-pulled main. Never reuse old branches across iterations:

    git checkout main && git pull origin main && git checkout -b feat/<topic>
    

    Reusing branches accumulates stale state, makes diffs unreviewable, and re-introduces fixes you already merged.

  2. Open a PR on the FIRST commit, not at the end. A PR is a conversation, not a deliverable. Pushing the first commit and opening a PR immediately:

    • Surfaces the change to anyone watching the repo
    • Lets CI run early (catches build / lint failures before you've layered more on top)
    • Gives reviewers a stake in the iteration before it's locked in
  3. Push eagerly. After every meaningful commit, git push. The branch is more valuable on the remote than on your machine. If your laptop dies mid-iteration, the work isn't lost.

  4. One topic per branch. If you find yourself fixing two unrelated things, stop and split into two branches. Reviews stay tight; reverts stay surgical.

  5. After every merge, the re-sync ritual. Local main needs to be in sync with remote main before you start the next branch — otherwise tools like Xcode that read from your working directory keep showing the old code:

    git fetch origin && git checkout main && git pull origin main
    

    Make this a reflex. It prevents an entire class of "I fixed it but it's still broken on simulator" confusion.

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.
