What it does

Commit is an agent skill from antiwork/gumroad. Stage and commit changes with a clear, concise commit message.

Its SKILL.md is about 500 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 and Linting and formatting. It works with Git. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Commit messages
  • Tasks that involve Linting and formatting

Example prompts

  • “/commit”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(git *)

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Run git status (without -uall) to see untracked and modified files.
  2. Run git diff and git diff --cached to understand staged and unstaged changes.
  3. Run git log --oneline -5 to see recent commit style.
  4. Run bin/test-confidence to verify your changes don't break anything. Opus analyzes your diff and runs the right tests. Wait for 99%…
  5. Run linters on changed files before staging
  6. Stage the relevant files by name — avoid git add -A or git add ..
  7. Write a commit message and commit.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b195c51. 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(git *)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • npx
    • bundle
    • npm

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, npx and npm, 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

Commit loads about 503 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 17 tokens; SKILL.md has 275 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~17
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~503

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 passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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.

Commit

Create a commit for the current changes.

Steps

  1. Run git status (without -uall) to see untracked and modified files.
  2. Run git diff and git diff --cached to understand staged and unstaged changes.
  3. Run git log --oneline -5 to see recent commit style.
  4. Run bin/test-confidence to verify your changes don't break anything. Opus analyzes your diff and runs the right tests. Wait for 99% confidence (green bar) before proceeding. If any test fails, fix it first.
  5. Run linters on changed files before staging:
    • Ruby files: bundle exec rubocop --force-exclusion -a <files>
    • JS/TS files: npm run lint-fast -- --max-warnings 0 --fix --no-warn-ignored <files>
    • TypeScript type check: npx tsc --noEmit (required, catches type errors that eslint skips)
    • CSS/SCSS/JSON/MD files: npx prettier --write <files>
    • SVG files: npx svgo --multipass <files>
    • Fix any lint errors or type errors before proceeding. Do not commit code that fails linting or type checking.
  6. Stage the relevant files by name — avoid git add -A or git add ..
  7. Write a commit message and commit.

If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use it as a hint for the message.

Commit message rules

  • Use the imperative mood ("Add", "Fix", "Remove", not "Added", "Fixes", "Removed").
  • Be concise: one short sentence, ideally under 50 characters.
  • Do NOT use conventional commit prefixes (no feat:, fix:, chore:, etc.).
  • Do NOT add any Co-Authored-By or similar trailers.
  • Focus on what changed and why, not how.
  • If a second line is needed for context, keep it brief.

Examples of good messages

  • Prevent discount code from being cleared on edit
  • Add integration test for offer code persistence
  • Remove unused legacy export helper
  • Fix thumbnail missing in upsell insert
