Full skill instructions

Present git status

GOAL: present the git status in a visually appealing and consistent way.

WHEN: use after a successful git commit by the agent when it needs to display the status of the repository to the user.

NOTE: The agent shouldn't use this internally for its own needs.

Efficiency directives

  • Optimize all operations for token and context efficiency
  • Batch operations on file groups, avoid individual file processing
  • Use parallel execution when possible
  • Target only relevant files
  • Reduce token usage

Git directives

For repository status

git status --porcelain=v2 --branch

References

The following reference files serve as strict guidelines:

  • references/​git-status-codes.md: complete reference for parsing git status output
  • references/​git-status-presentation.md: git status presentation guidelines, examples, and templates

Workflow

IMPORTANT: To avoid a recursive loop, DON'T invoke the git-status skill here.

  • Without using the git-status skill, get repository status
  • Use the reference files templates to present final status to user
