What it does

Commit Staged is an agent skill from fcakyon/claude-codex-settings. This skill should be used when user asks to "commit these changes", "write commit message", "stage and commit", "create a commit", "commit staged files", or explicitly invokes "commit-staged".

Its SKILL.md is about 640 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: Battle-tested Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor configs, plugins, hooks and agents with Kimi, MiniMax and GLM API support. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Asks to commit these changes
  • Write commit message
  • Stage and commit
  • Create a commit

Example prompts

  • “commit these changes”
  • “write commit message”
  • “stage and commit”
  • “/commit-staged”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Preferred execution
  2. Analyze staged files only
  3. Commit message format
  4. Message examples
  5. Documentation update
  6. Execution

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a035b4e. 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 Staged loads about 643 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 314 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~643

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.

description
This skill should be used when user asks to "commit these changes", "write commit message", "stage and commit", "create a commit", "commit staged files", or explicitly invokes "commit-staged".

Commit Staged

Complete workflow for creating commits following project standards.

When explicitly invoked with extra text, treat that text as additional context about the changes and include it in commit planning and commit messages. When session history includes findings, motivation, or rationale, include the strongest points in the commit message body instead of relying on the diff alone.

Process

First, run the /simplify skill on the staged diff and apply its findings before committing. Docs-only diffs are a no-op.

  1. Preferred execution

    • If subagents are available, use github-dev:commit-creator for the full workflow.
    • Pass along any extra invocation text as additional context.
    • Otherwise follow the manual steps below.

  2. Analyze staged files only

    • Check all staged files: git diff --cached --name-only
    • Read diffs: git diff --cached
    • Completely ignore unstaged changes

  3. Commit message format

    • First line: {type}: brief description (max 50 chars)
    • Types: feat, fix, refactor, docs, style, test, build
    • Use plain language. Avoid jargon, buzzwords, and repo shorthand unless an exact command or tool name is needed.
    • Use findings and motivation from session history when available.
    • Focus on 'why' not 'what'
    • 1 sentence conventional style + 1-2 short motivation/findings sentences if possible
    • For complex changes, add bullet points after blank line

  4. Message examples

    • feat: add sign-in flow
    • fix: stop duplicate jobs on save
    • docs: add skills install snippets

  5. Documentation update

    • Check README.md for:
      • New features that should be documented
      • Outdated descriptions no longer matching implementation
      • Missing setup instructions for new dependencies
    • Update as needed based on staged changes

  6. Execution

    • Commit uses HEREDOC syntax for proper formatting
    • Verify commit message has correct format
    • Don't add test plans to commit messages

Best Practices

  • Analyze staged files before writing message
  • Keep first line under 50 chars
  • Use active voice in message
  • Use simple words that still stay accurate
  • Prefer session findings over repeating raw diff details
  • One logical change per commit
  • Ensure README reflects implementation
