Documentation

README

Excerpt

Git Commit Validator

This skill MUST be invoked whenever you are about to create a git commit. It handles the complete workflow and enforces commit message standards.

When This Skill Activates

Auto-invoke this skill when the user implies code should be committed:

Category	Trigger Phrases
Explicit commit	"commit", "make a commit", "commit this"
Ship intent	"ship it", "send it"
Finalization	"wrap it up", "finalize this", "we're done", "that's it"
After implementation	When you complete work and there are uncommitted changes

Key insight: If the user's intent results in git commit being run, this skill MUST be used first.

Do NOT run git commit without this skill.

Complete Commit Workflow
