git

git is a skill for Claude Code from vinnie357/claude-skills. It costs 36 tokens per session (10,001 once invoked), scanned D, original, MIT.

A guide for using Git, the version-control system that records code changes and lets people work on separate branches.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating commits, managing branches, rebasing work, opening pull requests, and resolving conflicts.
Why use it?
It helps avoid mistakes when saving changes, combining work, or recovering from merge conflicts.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: hooks in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Part of the core plugin — 14 skills, 5 commands, 7 agents shipped together

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 D, and why

git scanned grade D with 3 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 15d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 495 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Git Operations

Activate when creating commits, managing branches, creating pull requests, resolving conflicts, or following Git workflows.

Anti-fabrication

This skill follows core:anti-fabrication. The commit/PR format rules are house convention, but the "Remote and Authentication Conventions" section makes specific, checkable claims about Git and the GitHub API — this is the one skill in this set that does, and its claims are verified in different ways:

  • Anonymous access to GitHub Releases on a private repo returns 404, not 403. Confirmed against GitHub's own documentation, cited in sources.md: "GitHub uses a 404 Not Found response instead of a 403 Forbidden response to avoid confirming the existence of private repositories."
  • SSH key auth bypasses the workflow OAuth scope that HTTPS push enforces. GitHub documents the workflow scope requirement for OAuth apps/PATs pushing Actions workflow files (cited in sources.md), but does not document the SSH-side exemption as a general principle — that half is empirically observed, not centrally documented: pushing a .github/workflows/*.yml change over HTTPS with a token lacking workflow scope is rejected ("Refusing to allow an OAuth App to create or update workflow ... without workflow scope"); the identical push over SSH succeeds.
  • The Worktrees section's mechanics (index and HEAD per-worktree, refs/stash shared, add refusing a branch already checked out, -d refusing after a squash merge, the $WORKTREE_ROOT root formula) are confirmed against git 2.54.0 man pages and reproduced by execution in a throwaway repo, cited in sources.md.

Don't assert git/gh/glab CLI or GitHub/GitLab API behavior this skill doesn't already cover without checking the current docs, or testing it directly when the docs don't say — CLI flags and API responses do change across versions.

  • glab command/flag names throughout this skill and references/gitlab-mr.md come from the official docs at https://docs.gitlab.com/cli/ (per-command pages cited in sources.md), NOT from local execution — glab was not installed on the machine where this content was authored, and no command here was tested by running it. No glab version is pinned deliberately: pinning a version never actually run against would overstate the evidence. Re-check with glab <cmd> --help before relying on a flag.

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 is a skill published in the GitHub repository vinnie357/claude-skills (27 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 10,001 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (reads agent configuration directories, recursive force delete, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
