Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
This Git commit helper streamlines version control workflows by analyzing code changes and suggesting concise, descriptive commit messages. It ensures your repository history remains clean and readable by automating the summarization of modifications.
When to use it
- You need to quickly draft a meaningful message after making multiple file edits.
- Your team requires consistent formatting for commit logs across different developers.
- You want to reduce time spent manually writing summaries during frequent code pushes.
- You are preparing a pull request and need a clear overview of the specific changes introduced.
Key capabilities
- Analyzes staged or committed file differences to understand context.
- Generates human-readable commit messages based on detected changes.
- Integrates directly into your Git workflow for seamless adoption.
Example prompts
- "Review my staged changes and suggest a one-line commit message."
- "Generate a detailed commit summary for the files I just modified in the
backendfolder." - "Format my recent code updates into a standard commit message following conventional commits."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure you have your changes staged or committed before requesting analysis, as the tool relies on actual file diffs to generate accurate summaries. For best results, provide context about the specific feature or bug being addressed if the code changes alone are ambiguous.
