Conciseness

Lean and efficient throughout: every line is an instruction or a concrete git command, with no over-explanation of git or conventional-commit concepts Claude already knows.

Actionability

Fully executable guidance with copy-paste-ready commands (`git status --short --branch`, `git diff --cached`, `git add path/to/file`) and a concrete conventional-commit format plus a type list covering the common cases.

Workflow Clarity

A clearly sequenced 7-step Commit Contract with an explicit validation checkpoint (step 3) and a re-check checkpoint (step 5), plus Guardrails feedback loops for validation failure and hook failures; the destructive operation has the required validation.

Progressive Disclosure

A single-purpose skill under 50 lines with no bundle files and no need for external references, organized into clear sections (Commit Contract, Guardrails, Message Style), meeting the simple-skill exception for a top score.

Specificity

Names several concrete actions ('commit', 'prepare a commit', 'stage changes', 'create a PR-ready checkpoint', 'finish work with a conventional commit'), matching the several-specific-actions anchor with minor coverage gaps rather than a comprehensive multi-action list.

Completeness

Explicitly states what it does ('Safe git commit workflow for AI coding agents ... avoiding unrelated user changes') and gives an explicit 'Use when...' clause with multiple concrete trigger phrases, satisfying the both-what-and-with-concrete-triggers anchor.

Trigger Term Quality

Covers natural user phrases ('asks to commit', 'prepare a commit', 'stage changes', 'PR-ready checkpoint', 'finish work') with good keyword coverage, though a few synonyms like 'make a commit' or 'save my work' are absent.

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Scoped to a git-commit workflow for AI coding agents with the distinguishing 'avoiding unrelated user changes' framing, giving it a clear niche with minimal overlap risk against other skills.
