What it does

Git Workflow Marchat is an agent skill from Cod-e-Codes/marchat. Drafts conventional commit messages and pull request bodies for marchat without committing or pushing unless explicitly requested. Use when the user asks for a commit message, PR description, or git workflow help; also read at the end of every substantive implementation task.

Its SKILL.md is about 480 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 Git workflow, Commit messages and Pull requests. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Terminal chat for developers: Go WebSocket server + Bubble Tea TUI client, optional E2E, reactions, DMs, channels, plugins, files, code snippets, admin UI. Backends: SQLite… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for a commit message
  • Git workflow help
  • Also read at the end of every substantive implementation task

Example prompts

  • “Use the git-workflow-marchat skill to draft conventional commit messages and pull request bodies for marchat without committing or pushing unless…”
  • “/git-workflow-marchat”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Parallel: git status, git diff, git log -1 --oneline (style reference).
  2. Stage only relevant files; warn on secrets (.env, keys).
  3. Commit via HEREDOC message; verify with git status.
  4. If pre-commit hook fails, fix and new commit (no amend unless rules allow).

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3440f09. 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
    • gh

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git and gh, 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 Workflow Marchat loads about 482 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 74 tokens; SKILL.md has 197 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~74
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~482

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.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:44
    e only relevant files; warn on secrets (`.env`, keys).

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 workflow for marchat

Default behavior

  • Do not run git commit or git push unless the user explicitly asks.
  • Always provide a suggested commit message when implementation work is complete, even if the user did not ask to commit.
  • Scope the message to all uncommitted changes (git status, git diff), including prior uncommitted work from earlier turns in the same session.
  • Never amend, force-push, or skip hooks unless the user explicitly requests and conditions are met.

Commit message format

Conventional commits: feat:, fix:, chore:, docs:, style:, ci:, test:.

<type>(<optional scope>): <short summary>

<optional body: why, not a file list>

Examples:

fix(server): use dialect boolean literals in pin toggle SQL

Postgres rejected integer comparison on boolean columns.
docs: refresh TESTING coverage from merged profile

When user asks to commit

  1. Parallel: git status, git diff, git log -1 --oneline (style reference).
  2. Stage only relevant files; warn on secrets (.env, keys).
  3. Commit via HEREDOC message; verify with git status.
  4. If pre-commit hook fails, fix and new commit (no amend unless rules allow).

Pull requests

Use gh when user asks to create a PR:

  1. Parallel: status, diff, tracking branch, git log main...HEAD, git diff main...HEAD.
  2. Push with -u only if needed and user asked.
  3. gh pr create with Summary and Test plan sections.
