Git workflow & versioning
Commit hygiene, branching and semantic versioning as one consistent set.
Installation
$ npx skills add addyosmani/agent-skillsThe CLI's unit is the repository, so this installs everything in addyosmani/agent-skills, not git-workflow-and-versioning alone. It writes into whichever agent directories it finds — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Zed.
Summary
Commit hygiene, branching and semantic versioning as one consistent set.
- Reach for it when commit messages that describe the diff instead of the reason for it.
- Sits in Ship — branches, pipelines, releases and the deploy itself.
- Stack-agnostic — nothing in it assumes a particular language or framework.
- Published by Addy Osmani. Well regarded, but not the vendor of the thing it covers.
- Installing pulls the whole addyosmani/agent-skills repository: this catalogue lists 19 other entries from it, and the repo may hold more.

The skill itself
The full text lives with its publisher and changes when they change it. Read it there rather than here — a mirrored copy of somebody else's procedure goes stale silently, and this page would have no way of telling you.
