About This Skill
What it does
This skill automates Git commit messages and branching by leveraging conventional commit formats and atomic commits. It aims to improve clarity and workflow within a Git repository, particularly when used with AI IDEs like Cursor. The skill prefers using zagi (a better git interface for agents) if available but falls back to plain git commands otherwise.
When to use it
- Committing changes to Git
- Staging files for commit
- Creating commit messages
- Managing atomic commits
- Before pushing changes
Key capabilities
- Automates Git commit message formatting using conventional commit types (feat, fix, docs, etc.).
- Enforces atomic commits (grouping related code and tests together).
- Prefers
zagifor Git operations when installed; falls back to plaingit. - Provides user confirmation before running any Git commands.
- Displays the exact Git commands that will be executed.
Example prompts
- "Commit these changes with a 'feat' type."
- "Stage and commit this file, using conventional commit format."
- “Create a commit message for this change.”
Tips & gotchas
- The skill works best when
zagiis installed (either via an alias or binary). - Even with
zagiavailable, the skill generates plain Git commands. - Always expect user confirmation before committing changes.
