Branch-per-feature workflow: feature/<slug or bugfix/<slug off main, commit per step with explicit git add, merge straight back to main (no PR).

  • Works in 4 steps: Before writing code for a new ask, check… → Work and commit on that branch as normal… → Merge back into main directly — no… → …
  • Fix starts (start work on X) before writing code
  • SKILL.md covers When to use (full scope), The rule, Workflow and Notes
  • Calls git

What it does

Git Branch Workflow is an agent skill from n1m21n/Infinite. Branch-per-feature workflow: feature/<slug or bugfix/<slug off main, commit per step with explicit git add, merge straight back to main (no PR). Use whenever a feature or fix starts ("start work on X") before writing code, and when work is ready to land.

Its SKILL.md is about 880 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. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Infinite is a node-based audiovisual workstation — real-time GPU video compositing, procedural 3D geometry, modular synths, DSP, and VST3/AU plugin hosting.

When your agent uses it

  • Fix starts (start work on X) before writing code
  • When work is ready to land

Example prompts

  • “start work on X”
  • “/git-branch-workflow”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Before writing code for a new ask, check git status and `git branch
  2. Work and commit on that branch as normal until the user considers the
  3. Merge back into main directly — no GitHub PR, this is a solo repo
  4. Delete the finished branch once merged, to keep git branch -vv clean

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4e7ffe5. 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

Git Branch Workflow loads about 876 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 471 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~876

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 471 words (~876 tokens).

“The standard branching workflow for this repo — every feature or bug fix request gets its own branch off main (feature/ or bugfix/), work happens there, and it merges directly back into main (no PR, solo repo) once done. Use…”
