Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

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

    Scanned vadimcomanescu/codex-skills at 0fd6da0fcc.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill helps automate and streamline the process of creating Git commits. It can generate commit messages based on changes, format commit history, and assist with interactive staging for more complex workflows. The tool aims to reduce repetitive tasks and ensure consistency in commit practices.

When to use it

  • Generating initial commit messages: Quickly create a draft commit message describing the changes made.
  • Interactive staging assistance: Break down large changes into smaller, logical commits.
  • Formatting existing commit history: Clean up messy or inconsistently formatted commit messages in a repository.
  • Automating repetitive commit tasks: Streamline common workflows like fixing typos or adding missing documentation.

Key capabilities

  • Commit message generation based on diffs
  • Interactive staging support
  • Commit history formatting
  • Automation of common Git commit tasks

Example prompts

  • "Generate a commit message for the changes I just made."
  • "Stage these files interactively and help me create logical commits."
  • "Format my recent commit messages to follow the conventional commits standard."

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill's effectiveness relies on clear and understandable code changes. Large or complex diffs may produce less accurate commit message suggestions.
  • Ensure you have Git installed and configured correctly for optimal performance.
