Create a short, focused commit message and commit staged changes; keywords: git, review, commit, fix. Use only on explicit request; skip in routine implementation discussions.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
7 rules. 0 are common, 7 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 123 edited versions we read keep these.
7
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

Describe why: Not just what - "fix stuff" is meaningless
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 123 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Git Create Commit
Overview
Create a short, focused commit message and commit staged changes.
Steps
- Review changes
- Check the diff:
git diff --cached(if changes are staged) orgit diff(if unstaged) - Understand what changed and why
- Check the diff:
- Ask for issue key (optional)
- Check the branch name for an issue key (Linear, Jira, GitHub issue, etc.)
- If an issue key (e.g., POW-123, PROJ-456, #123) is not already available in the chat or commit context, optionally ask the user if they want to include one
- This is optional - commits can be made without an issue key
- Stage changes (if not already staged)
git add -A
- Create short commit message
- Base the message on the actual changes in the diff
- Example:
git commit -m "fix(auth): handle expired token refresh" - Example with issue key:
git commit -m "PROJ-123: fix(auth): handle expired token refresh"
Template
git commit -m "<type>(<scope>): <short summary>"- With issue key:
git commit -m "<issue-key>: <type>(<scope>): <short summary>"
Rules
- Length: <= 72 characters
- Imperative mood: Use "fix", "add", "update" (not "fixed", "added", "updated")
- Capitalize: First letter of summary should be capitalized
- No period: Don't end the subject line with a period
- Describe why: Not just what - "fix stuff" is meaningless

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.
Used alongsideProjects with it also use git-pr, github-pr-create and 9 more.
Other files people use alongside this one.
Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.
klauswgSkillgit-pr
Prepare, review, publish, or update a complete GitHub pull request for the current repository, including local commit readiness, safe push strategy, semantic title validation, repository-native PR templates, issue linking, and checks verification. Use when the user asks to draft, create, submit, publish, open, or update a pull request. Always require the user to review and explicitly approve the exact final PR before any push or GitHub write.

mjun0812Skillgithub-pr-create
Pull Requestを作成するSkill。現在のbranchからpull requestを作成する。言語指定可能。 ユーザーが「PR作って」「pull request作成して」のように依頼したら使うこと。
Also in 3 projects that use this
MicrosoftSkillgit-branch
Branch management for implementation. Use when you need to create a branch, switch branches, checkout, or verify branching strategy before implementing code. Do not use for commits (use git-commit), pull requests (use pull-request), or advanced git operations (rebase, merge).
Also in 4 projects that use this
klauswgSkillgit-issue
Prepare, review, create, or update evidence-based GitHub issues for the current repository with duplicate detection, repository-native templates, valid labels, and post-publication verification. Use when the user asks to draft, file, submit, publish, edit, or refine a GitHub issue, bug report, feature request, performance issue, or technical proposal. Always require the user to review and explicitly approve the exact final issue before any GitHub write.
Also in 3 projects that use this
MicrosoftSkillgit-merge
Integrate branches with merge or rebase, resolve conflicts, and execute an ordinary push when explicitly authorized. Use for guided integration with optional conflict-review pauses.
Also in 3 projects that use this
GoogleSkillgithub-pr-review
Review a GitHub pull request and leave inline comments in a natural human reviewing voice, indistinguishable from comments typed by hand on the GitHub web UI. Deliberately bounded to defects a reader can settle by looking at the anchored line, rather than a deep audit, so every comment is cheap for the author to check. Scales to 2-20 comments by PR size, parallelises analysis across sub-agents, drafts for approval, then posts individually with human pacing. Use when the user says "review this PR", "review PR 123", pastes a github.com/.../pull/N link, or asks for comments on a pull request. Don't use for reviewing local uncommitted changes or a diff against a branch (use the `review` skill for that).

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
