Create a Conventional Commit message for staged changes and run git commit.

  • Works in 6 steps: Confirm something is staged. → Review staged diff and affected paths. → Detect relevant AL-### keys (branch,… → …
  • Changes are staged and you need a commit message in the form type(scope): subject
  • SKILL.md covers Rules, Workflow, Checklists and Minimal examples, plus 1 more section
  • Calls git

What it does

Commit is an agent skill from Asymmetric-al/core. Create a Conventional Commit message for staged changes and run git commit. Use when changes are staged and you need a commit message in the form type(scope): subject, with a <=100 character imperative header and optional 'ref AL-' body line. Retained for reference; use only when explicitly asked for this commit workflow.

Its SKILL.md is about 550 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. The repository describes itself as: A high-performance, enterprise-grade Next.js 16 application for mission-focused non-profit organizations. Built for high impact teams. The licence is AGPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Changes are staged and you need a commit message in the form type(scope): subject
  • With a <=100 character imperative header and optional ref AL- body line

Example prompts

  • “ref AL-”
  • “/commit”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Confirm something is staged.
  2. Review staged diff and affected paths.
  3. Detect relevant AL-### keys (branch, diff, or recent commits).
  4. Choose the best commit type and optional scope.
  5. Write an imperative subject (<= 100 chars).
  6. Compose the commit message, then run git commit.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a630937. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    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

Commit loads about 554 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 83 tokens; SKILL.md has 238 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~83
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~554

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.

Create a Conventional Commit message for staged changes and run git commit. Use when changes are staged and you need a commit message in the form type(scope): subject, with a <=100 character imperative header and optional 'ref AL-###' body line. Retained for reference; use only when explicitly asked for this commit workflow.

Commit — Skill

Retained for reference only. This skill is not part of the active repo routing and should not be used unless a user explicitly asks for this commit workflow.

Name: commit Purpose: Create a Conventional Commit message for staged changes and run git commit. Use this skill when you are ready to commit work in this repo.

Applies when: Changes are staged and you need a commit message. Do not use when: Nothing is staged or you are not using Git.

Rules

  • Types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test, chore, perf, ci, build, revert.
  • Header format: type(scope): subject (scope optional).
  • Header max length: 100 characters.
  • Subject: imperative, no trailing period, no emojis.
  • Issue refs: include ref AL-### in the body only when applicable.

Workflow

  1. Confirm something is staged.
  2. Review staged diff and affected paths.
  3. Detect relevant AL-### keys (branch, diff, or recent commits).
  4. Choose the best commit type and optional scope.
  5. Write an imperative subject (<= 100 chars).
  6. Compose the commit message, then run git commit.

Checklists

Pre-commit checklist
  • git status shows staged changes
  • Issue key(s) identified or explicitly absent
Review checklist
  • Header is <= 100 characters
  • Type is lowercase and valid
  • No emojis
  • ref AL-### included only when applicable

Minimal examples

Commit without body
bash
git commit -m "fix(auth): handle empty session"
Commit with body + issue refs
bash
git commit -m "feat(billing): add invoice export" -m "Add export endpoint and UI action" -m "ref AL-123"

Common mistakes / pitfalls

  • Committing with no staged changes
  • Using vague subjects ("update stuff")
  • Exceeding header length
  • Adding ref AL-### when no issue applies
