Git Commit

Overview

Analyze the current working tree, derive a Conventional Commits 1.0.0-compliant message, and commit. Always execute from the git repository root.

SKILL_DIR is the absolute path of the directory containing this SKILL.md. Derive it from the path at which Claude Code loaded this file. Use it for all script references.

Process

1. Stage

1. Run git diff --staged --name-only to check staged files.
2. If nothing staged: a. Run git diff --name-only to list unstaged tracked changes. b. Run git ls-files --others --exclude-standard to list untracked files. c. Using the conversation context (what task was just completed), file paths, and diff content, identify task-related files. d. Stage only the identified task-related files with git add <file>....
3. If still nothing staged, abort with an informative message that lists the unstaged files found in step 2 (if any).

2. Analyze

1. Collect diff: git --no-pager diff --staged.
2. Derive type from references/types.md.
3. Write description: imperative English, no trailing period, ≤100 chars including type prefix.
4. Optionally add body with - bullet lines.

3. Commit

Run bash "${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/commit.sh" with the following options. Do NOT read the script; use it as a black box.

• --type <string> (required): Commit type derived from step 2
• --description <string> (required): Commit description derived from step 2
• --body <string> (optional): Body text, may contain newlines
• --no-json (optional): Flag. Disables JSON output. JSON output (sha, message) is on by default.

Example:

bash "${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/commit.sh" \
  --type feat \
  --description "add user authentication endpoint" \
  --body "- add POST /auth/login route
- implement JWT token generation
- add input validation middleware"

Return the JSON output as the final result.

Constraints

• Abort if description is empty or is a file path.
• Abort if type is not in references/types.md.
• Abort if git commit fails.
