What it does
Ijfw Commit is an agent skill from FerroxLabs/ijfw. Terse conventional commits. Trigger: commit, git commit, /ijfw-commit
Its SKILL.md is about 280 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: IJFW — It Just Fcking Works. Ferrox Labs' local-first infrastructure for AI coding agents: shared memory, smart routing, multi-AI cross-audits, disciplined workflow. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Commit messages
Example prompts
- “/ijfw-commit”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eda62f3. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
Ijfw Commit loads about 282 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 20 tokens; SKILL.md has 127 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md

- description
- Terse conventional commits. Trigger: commit, git commit, /ijfw-commit
Write commit messages following Conventional Commits.
Format: type(scope): subject
Rules:
- Subject <=50 chars. Imperative mood.
- Why over what. The diff shows what changed.
- Types: feat, fix, refactor, docs, test, chore, perf, ci, style
- Scope: affected module/component (optional but preferred)
- Body only if the "why" isn't obvious from the subject.
- No "Updated", "Changed", "Modified" -- be specific.
Examples:
- fix(auth): prevent token refresh race condition
- feat(api): add rate limiting to public endpoints
- refactor(db): extract connection pool into service
After commit completes successfully, run in the same shell:
command -v ijfw >/dev/null 2>&1 && ijfw cross critique HEAD~1..HEAD &Then narrate to the user using this exact structure:
- One line:
Phase N / Wave NA -- Step N.M -- commit -- done. - One line: SHA + subject (e.g.
a1b2c3d feat(api): add rate limiting) - One line:
Background critique running -- check /ijfw-status for findings.(omit if ijfw not present)
