What it does

Commit is an agent skill from RailsEventStore/ecommerce. Create atomic git commits following project conventions

Its SKILL.md is about 770 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. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Application with CQRS and Event Sourcing built on Rails and Rails Event Store. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Commit messages

Example prompts

  • “/commit”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Stage only the files for that commit
  2. Stash the rest (git stash --keep-index)
  3. Run tests (make test)
  4. Unstash (git stash pop)
  5. If tests pass, commit

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 42c6c23. 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
    • make

    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 767 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 16 tokens; SKILL.md has 375 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~16
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~767

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.

Commit

When to use

Use this skill when asked to commit changes, group changes into commits, or prepare commits.

Commit message rules

  • Focus on why the change was made, not what changed — the diff shows the "what"
  • First line: imperative mood, max 72 characters (e.g. "Ensure order draft flow in unit tests")
  • Leave a blank line after the first line if adding a body
  • Body (optional): explain motivation, context, or trade-offs — not a list of files changed
  • Never mention AI tools, Claude, Claude Code, or assistants in commit messages
  • Never mention skills, slash commands, or internal tooling in commit messages
  • No "Co-Authored-By" lines
  • Be precise about what technology/component is involved — don't say "previous upgrade" or "the tool", name the specific thing (e.g., "Rails gems", "activesupport")

Atomic commits

  • Each commit must leave the test suite green (make test must pass)
  • Each commit must be releasable and deployable on its own: green tests and no half-wired user-facing behavior. Dormant code (a handler or process manager nothing triggers yet) is fine
  • When building a feature with /new-feature, one slice = one commit: commit at the end of each slice instead of carving up a large finished diff afterward
  • Group related changes together — a commit should represent one logical change
  • Never commit generated or transient tool output (e.g. .mutant/results/*.json, coverage reports, logs, tmp files). Review untracked files in git status before staging — stage files explicitly instead of git add . / git add -A, and gitignore recurring artifacts
  • If a change spans multiple files but serves one purpose, it belongs in one commit
  • Order commits so each builds on the previous without breaking tests
  • When splitting a large changeset into commits, verify each commit independently:
    1. Stage only the files for that commit
    2. Stash the rest (git stash --keep-index)
    3. Run tests (make test)
    4. Unstash (git stash pop)
    5. If tests pass, commit
Show full SKILL.md (67 more words)Show less

Process

  1. Review all uncommitted changes (git status, git diff)
  2. Identify logical groups of changes
  3. Determine the right commit order (dependencies first)
  4. For each commit:
    • Stage relevant files
    • Verify tests pass with only those changes
    • Draft a commit message following the rules above
    • Present the staged files and message for user approval
  5. Wait for user confirmation before committing

Examples of good commit messages

Ensure integration tests use proper order creation flow

Tests were creating orders via SecureRandom.uuid without going through
the draft flow, skipping the OfferDrafted event that read models depend on.
Add Deals read model for sales pipeline tracking
Replace defensive &. checks with find_by! in event handlers

Events always follow the real application flow, so records are
guaranteed to exist. Using find_by! surfaces bugs instead of hiding them.
