git-rebase-stalls-async-post-commit-hook

git-rebase-stalls-async-post-commit-hook is a skill for Claude Code from wan-huiyan/agent-traffic-control. It costs 569 tokens per session (3,797 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A Git troubleshooting guide for a rebase, which reapplies commits onto another starting point, getting stuck because an asynchronous post-commit hook keeps running. It also covers leftover rebase state that `git rebase --abort` does not remove.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when rebasing multiple commits stalls with “It has been rescheduled,” leaves you in a detached `HEAD`, or reports an existing `rebase-merge` directory after aborting.
Why use it?
It helps explain why a rebase can pause without a merge conflict and why later rebase commands may claim another rebase is still active. It provides a way to diagnose the hook and stale rebase directory involved.

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 C, and why

git-rebase-stalls-async-post-commit-hook scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

git rebase stalls mid-replay because async post-commit hook holds resources

Problem

You run git rebase origin/main on a branch with several commits ahead. The rebase begins applying commits one by one and partway through prints output like:

Rebasing (1/10)Rebasing (2/10)...Rebasing (5/10)
[post-commit] Python files changed — running doc update in background...
hint:
hint:     pick 8b625b6b8b... fix(runbook): split verification probe ...
hint:
hint: It has been rescheduled; To edit the command before continuing, please
hint: edit the todo list first:
hint:
hint:     git rebase --edit-todo
hint:     git rebase --continue

git status reports ## HEAD (no branch) (detached HEAD), the rebase is not complete, but no merge conflict was raised. git rebase --abort appears to succeed silently, but the next git rebase reports:

fatal: It seems that there is already a rebase-merge directory, and
I wonder if you are in the middle of another rebase.

You're stuck. The branch can't move forward and the rebase machinery won't reset cleanly.

Trigger conditions

All of these together:

  1. Multi-commit rebase (origin/main is several commits ahead).
  2. Output contains "rescheduled" hint for a specific commit SHA, NOT a CONFLICT (content): line.
  3. git status reports detached HEAD post-stall.
  4. git rebase --abort runs silently but does NOT clear .git/worktrees/<name>/rebase-merge/ (or .git/rebase-merge/ for non-worktree repos).
  5. Project has an async post-commit hook — confirm with: 
    cat .git/hooks/post-commit 2>/dev/null | head -30
    Look for & / nohup / ( ... ) & / "running ... in background" / claude -p / npm run spawned non-interactively. The diagnostic signature in the rebase output is the literal string [post-commit] ... running ... in background printed between Rebasing (N/M) lines.

If only (2) matches but the hook is absent, you have a genuine real-conflict or other rebase failure mode — this skill doesn't apply.

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.
