What it does

Commit is an agent skill from softspark/ai-toolkit. Creates Conventional Commits with pre-commit validation. Triggers: commit, conventional commit, git commit, message.

Its SKILL.md is about 590 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/pre-commit-check.py` and `templates/conventional-commit.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Commit messages. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Professional-grade AI coding toolkit: 94 skills, 44 agents, multi-platform (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini, Cline, Roo Code, Aider, Augment, Antigravity, Codex CLI… The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

Tasks that involve Commit messages

Example prompts

“Use the commit skill to create Conventional Commits with pre-commit validation. An agent skill from softspark/ai-toolkit”
“/commit”

Requirements

Python 3
Docker
Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Grep

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d64db2b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
- Bash
- Read
- Grep
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- git
- make
- docker
- python3
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 docker, 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 585 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 31 tokens; SKILL.md has 155 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~31
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~585

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.

NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
```
allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Grep
```

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Git Commit

$ARGUMENTS

Creates well-structured git commits following Conventional Commits specification.

Project context

Staged changes: !git diff --cached --stat 2>/dev/null || echo "nothing staged"
Current branch: !git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null

Commit Format

<type>(<scope>): <description>

[optional body]

[optional footer]

Types

Type	Description
`feat`	New feature
`fix`	Bug fix
`docs`	Documentation only
`style`	Formatting, no code change
`refactor`	Code restructuring
`perf`	Performance improvement
`test`	Adding/updating tests
`chore`	Maintenance tasks
`ci`	CI/CD changes

Examples

bash

# Feature
git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
feat(search): add multi-hop reasoning support

- Implement query decomposition
- Add iterative retrieval with reasoning
- Include answer synthesis from aggregated context
EOF
)"

# Bug fix
git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
fix(cache): resolve connection pool exhaustion

Root cause: connections not returned to pool on error
Solution: use context manager for automatic cleanup

Fixes #123
EOF
)"

Automated Pre-Commit Check

Run the bundled script for structured pre-commit analysis:

bash

python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/pre-commit-check.py

Use the output to validate staged changes, detect secrets, and suggest commit type/scope.

Pre-Commit Checklist

Before committing:

Run linting: make lint (or docker exec {app-container} make lint)
Run tests: make test (or docker exec {app-container} make test)
Check for secrets: No API keys or passwords

Git Safety

NEVER use --force push without explicit request
NEVER skip hooks (--no-verify) unless explicitly asked
ALWAYS create NEW commits (don't amend previous unless asked)
Stage specific files, avoid git add -A with sensitive files

Files

Questions about Commit

What does Commit do?

Creates Conventional Commits with pre-commit validation. An agent skill from softspark/ai-toolkit. Commit is an agent skill from softspark/ai-toolkit. Creates Conventional Commits with pre-commit validation.

When should I use Commit?

Commit fits situations like: tasks that involve Commit messages.

How do I install Commit in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add softspark/ai-toolkit --skill commit -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (app/skills/commit in softspark/ai-toolkit) into .claude/skills/commit in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Commit in Codex?

Run `npx skills add softspark/ai-toolkit --skill commit -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (app/skills/commit in softspark/ai-toolkit) into .agents/skills/commit in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Commit in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add softspark/ai-toolkit --skill commit -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/commit, .gemini/skills/commit, .github/skills/commit and .opencode/skills/commit in your project.

What does Commit need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Commit needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (git, make, docker and python3). Our summary lists: Python 3; Docker. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Bash, Read, Grep.

Does Commit access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Its commands use git and docker, which can reach the network depending on how they are called. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Commit safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.

What licence does Commit use?

Commit is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Commit use?

About 585 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.3k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Commit?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Commit: React Router Release Notes Prep (remix-run/react-router, 57k stars), ToolJet Multi-Repo Commit (ToolJet/ToolJet, 41k stars), Git Workflow and Versioning (addyosmani/agent-skills, 103k stars) and React Router Pull Request Creator (remix-run/react-router, 57k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.

Who maintains Commit?

softspark (a GitHub user) maintains it in softspark/ai-toolkit, which has 179 GitHub stars. The repository holds 112 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on October 7, 2026.
