Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/mitsuhiko/agent-stuff --skill commit
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads commit automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Create a git commit for the current changes using a concise Conventional Commits-style subject.

Format

<type>(<scope>): <summary>

  • type REQUIRED. Use feat for new features, fix for bug fixes. Other common types: docs, refactor, chore, test, perf.
  • scope OPTIONAL. Short noun in parentheses for the affected area (e.g., api, parser, ui).
  • summary REQUIRED. Short, imperative, <= 72 chars, no trailing period.

Notes

  • Body is OPTIONAL. If needed, add a blank line after the subject and write short paragraphs.
  • Do NOT include breaking-change markers or footers.
  • Do NOT add sign-offs (no Signed-off-by).
  • Only commit; do NOT push.
  • If it is unclear whether a file should be included, ask the user which files to commit.
  • Treat any caller-provided arguments as additional commit guidance. Common patterns:
    • Freeform instructions should influence scope, summary, and body.
    • File paths or globs should limit which files to commit. If files are specified, only stage/commit those unless the user explicitly asks otherwise.
    • If arguments combine files and instructions, honor both.

Steps

  1. Infer from the prompt if the user provided specific file paths/globs and/or additional instructions.
  2. Review git status and git diff to understand the current changes (limit to argument-specified files if provided).
  3. (Optional) Run git log -n 50 --pretty=format:%s to see commonly used scopes.
  4. If there are ambiguous extra files, ask the user for clarification before committing.
  5. Stage only the intended files (all changes if no files specified).
  6. Run git commit -m "<subject>" (and -m "<body>" if needed).

FAQ

What does the commit skill do?

How do I install commit?

Run npx skills add https://github.com/mitsuhiko/agent-stuff --skill commit in your project. The skills CLI detects the agents you use and copies the skill into the right folder. For Claude Code you can also place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/commit/ (personal) or .claude/skills/commit/ (project).

Which AI agents can use commit?

Any agent that supports the open Agent Skills format (a folder with a SKILL.md file), including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Cline, OpenCode and more.

Is commit safe to install?

No partner security audit is available yet. Skills can run commands and scripts, so read the SKILL.md and any bundled files before installing.
