standard
Commit-message convention that the git_commit.py script generates from a staged diff via the model call.
No evidence-backed relationships are recorded.
The Agent Skills specification requires only SKILL.md. In the commit-crafter tutorial, everything countable moves into scripts/check_message.py, tested with Python's standard library and no API key.
Reality
A dev.to walkthrough puts commit signing, commitlint, Gitleaks and OWASP SAST into Husky hooks, then runs commitlint again in GitHub Actions because any developer can skip the local hooks with --no-verify.
Reality
A commit-crafter tutorial splits judgment from enforcement the right way, but only message formatting makes it inside the deterministic check. The approval gate stays a sentence the model can reinterpret.
Reality
A zero-budget git-to-Markdown pipeline works because a deterministic fallback runs when the free model tier says no. The interesting part is what the degraded output costs.
Reality
A developer avoided API-key coupling by shelling out to the Claude CLI. The default output format returns text only, so months of per-commit model calls left no usage record at all.
