What local validations does it perform?

It runs Ruff and Mypy for Python/Poetry projects, and linting/type-checking for Node.js projects to catch errors before the commit is finalized.

Can I commit directly to the main branch?

By default, the skill includes a safety check that prevents committing directly to main, master, or dev, prompting you to create a feature branch instead.

How does it handle co-authoring with AI?

The skill automatically appends 'Co-Authored-By: Claude' to the commit footer, ensuring proper attribution for changes made by the AI.

Does this skill support Conventional Commits?

Yes, it enforces standard types like feat, fix, refactor, docs, and chore to ensure your project history is clean and searchable.

Developer Tools

Automates the creation of validated, conventional git commits with integrated local pre-commit checks and branch protection.

The OrchestKit Commit skill streamlines version control by enforcing Conventional Commit standards while ensuring high code quality through local validation. It provides a structured workflow that prevents direct commits to protected branches like main or dev, runs project-specific linters and type-checkers (Python/Node.js), and formats commit messages with appropriate scopes and co-author attribution. This skill is ideal for developers who want to maintain a professional, searchable commit history and catch errors before they reach the remote repository.
