Stage, commit, and push changes to remote repository with approval gate

  • Tasks that involve Commit messages
  • SKILL.md covers Purpose, State Dependencies, Prerequisites and Process, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls git

What it does

Git Commit Push is an agent skill from Abilityai/cornelius. Stage, commit, and push changes to remote repository with approval gate

Its SKILL.md is about 790 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Commit messages. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: AI-powered second brain template for Claude Code + Obsidian. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Commit messages

Example prompts

  • “/git-commit-push”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, AskUserQuestion

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Check Repository State
  2. Review Changes (APPROVAL GATE)
  3. Stage and Commit
  4. Push to Remote
  5. Verify

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit fd5e9a4. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash
    • AskUserQuestion

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Git Commit Push loads about 793 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 276 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~22
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~793

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash, AskUserQuestion

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Git Commit and Push

Commit and push changes to the remote repository. Shows diff for approval before committing.

Purpose

Safely commit and push all staged and unstaged changes to the remote repository. Presents changes for review before committing to prevent accidental commits.

State Dependencies

SourceLocationReadWriteDescription
Git status.git/XCurrent repo state
Working directory./XModified files
Remote repositoryoriginXPush destination

Prerequisites

  • Git repository initialized
  • Remote origin configured
  • Changes to commit (untracked or modified files)

Process

Step 1: Check Repository State
bash
# Show current branch
git branch --show-current

# Check if there are changes to commit
git status --short

If no changes, inform user and exit.

Step 2: Review Changes (APPROVAL GATE)

Present the changes for review:

bash
# Show summary of changes
git status

# Show detailed diff of modified files (not untracked)
git diff

# Show staged changes if any
git diff --cached

Ask user:

  1. Show the list of files that will be committed
  2. Ask for commit message (suggest based on changes)
  3. Confirm before proceeding

Use AskUserQuestion with options:

  • "Commit all changes" (Recommended)
  • "Select specific files"
  • "Cancel"
Step 3: Stage and Commit

Based on user choice:

If "Commit all changes":

bash
# Stage all changes
git add -A

# Commit with user-provided message
git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
[commit message here]

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
EOF
)"

If "Select specific files":

  • Ask which files to stage
  • Stage only those files
  • Commit
Step 4: Push to Remote
bash
# Push to current branch's upstream
git push

# If no upstream, push with -u flag
git push -u origin $(git branch --show-current)
Step 5: Verify
bash
# Confirm push succeeded
git log --oneline -1

# Show remote status
git status

Completion Checklist

  • Repository state checked
  • Changes reviewed by user
  • Commit message approved
  • Changes committed
  • Pushed to remote
  • Push verified

Error Recovery
