  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by rohitg00 on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Smart Commit AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/rohitg00/pro-workflow.git /tmp/pro-workflow
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/pro-workflow/skills/smart-commit .claude/skills/smart-commit
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Smart Commit in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Smart Commit on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Smart Commit is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Smart Commit

Trigger

Use when saying "commit", "save changes", or ready to commit after making changes.

Workflow

  1. Check current state and identify what to commit.
  2. Run quality gates (lint, typecheck, tests on affected files).
  3. Scan staged changes for issues.
  4. Draft a conventional commit message from the diff.
  5. Stage specific files, create the commit.
  6. Prompt for learnings from this change.

Commands

bash
git status
git diff --stat

npm run lint 2>&1 | tail -5
npm run typecheck 2>&1 | tail -5
npm test -- --changed --passWithNoTests 2>&1 | tail -10

git add <specific files>
git commit -m "<type>(<scope>): <summary>"

Code Review Scan

Before committing, check staged changes in production code (not test files) for:

  • console.log / debugger statements (suppressed in test files — see Review Suppressions)
  • TODO/FIXME/HACK comments without ticket references (e.g., TODO(JIRA-123) is fine)
  • Hardcoded secrets or API keys
  • Leftover test-only code

Flag any issues before proceeding.

Commit Message Format

<type>(<scope>): <short summary>

<body - what changed and why>

Types: feat, fix, refactor, test, docs, chore, perf, ci, style

Guardrails

  • Never skip quality gates unless user explicitly says to.
  • Stage specific files by name. Never git add -A or git add ..
  • Summary under 72 characters. Body explains why, not what.
  • No generic messages ("fix bug", "update code").
  • Reference issue numbers when applicable.

Output

  • Quality gate results (pass/fail)
  • Issues found in staged changes
  • Suggested commit message
  • Commit hash after committing
  • Prompt: any learnings to capture?

Review Suppressions

Do NOT flag these during the pre-commit scan. They add noise without catching real bugs:

  • Threshold, config value, or feature flag changes (limits, timeouts, retry counts)
  • Import reordering that does not change runtime behavior
  • Whitespace-only or formatting-only changes
  • Adding or removing console.log in test files
  • TODO/FIXME comments (tracked separately in issue trackers)
  • Variable or parameter renames that do not change behavior

Frequently asked questions

What does the Smart Commit AI skill do?

Run quality gates, review staged changes for issues, and create a well-crafted conventional commit. Use when saying "commit", "git commit", "save my changes", or ready to commit after making changes.

Why use Smart Commit on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Smart Commit is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Smart Commit in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/rohitg00/pro-workflow/tree/main/skills/smart-commit. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Smart Commit?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Smart Commit?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Smart Commit with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Smart Commit AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by rohitg00. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
