SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Consequential git operations like pushing, cherry-picking to production, or rewriting history carry real risk of lost work or broken deployments. This Skill loads a personal safety workflow so those checks run before any risky git action. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Push-Safety Checks: Enforces a review of what is about to be pushed before any push happens. - Production Cherry-Pick Verification: Applies a defined checklist before cherry-picking commits into production branches. - Branch-Model Compliance: Confirms the current work follows the expected branch model before proceeding. - Use Case: Before pushing a feature branch or cherry-picking a hotfix to production, activate this Skill so the AI reads the git-helper and git-workflow instructions and walks through the safety checks first. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to run the git safety checks from this Skill before pushing the current branch or cherry-picking a commit to production.

Frequently Asked Questions about claude-import-git-helper

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add safety checks before git push?▼

Activate this Skill so the AI reads the git-helper and git-workflow instruction files, which define push-safety checks to run before any push. The workflow reviews what will be pushed rather than authorizing the push automatically.

How to safely cherry-pick commits to production?▼

Use this Skill to load the production cherry-pick checklist before cherry-picking. It walks through verification steps defined in the git-workflow instructions so the cherry-pick follows the documented process.

Does this Skill push or rewrite git history automatically?▼

No. The Skill explicitly states the safety workflow is not authorization to push or rewrite history. It only loads the checking instructions; the actual git operations remain a separate, deliberate action.

What files does this git safety Skill depend on?▼

It depends on two local files: ~/dotfiles/ai/agents/git-helper.md and ~/dotfiles/ai/skills/git-workflow/SKILL.md. Both must exist in the local dotfiles clone for the Skill to load the full workflow.

When should I not use this git helper Skill?▼

Skip it for routine, low-risk operations like local commits or status checks. It is designed for consequential operations such as pushes, production cherry-picks, and branch-model decisions where a safety review adds value.
