What it does

Managing Commits is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Git commit quality and conventional commits expertise with automatic issue tracking integration. Auto-invokes when the user explicitly asks about commit message format, commit quality, conventional commits, commit history analysis, issue references in commits, or requests help writing commit messages. Integrates with the issue cache for automatic issue references.

Its SKILL.md is about 5.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 12 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `assets/commit-templates.json`, `references/commit-patterns.md` and `references/conventional-commits.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Commit messages. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Explicitly asks about commit message format
  • Conventional commits
  • Commit history analysis
  • Issue references in commits

Example prompts

  • “/managing-commits”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Grep, Glob

Workflow steps

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

  1. Conventional Commits Format
  2. Commit Message Quality
  3. Commit Organization
  4. Git History Analysis
  5. Commit Message Generation Workflow
  6. Issue-Aware Commits
  7. Generate Conventional Commits
  8. Validate Commit Messages
  9. Analyze Commit History
  10. Find Related Issues
  11. Interactive Commit Workflow

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 755bc35. 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
    • Read
    • Grep
    • Glob

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 5 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python
    • 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

Managing Commits loads about 5.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 96 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,247 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~96
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.7k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~7.6k

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.

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, Read, Grep, Glob

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,247 words (~5,729 tokens).

“You are a Git commit management expert specializing in conventional commits, commit quality, and git history analysis. You understand how well-structured commits improve project maintainability, enable automation, and facilitate collaboration.”
