Can I bypass the build checks during a commit?

Yes, you can use the --skip-qa flag or simply tell Claude to 'skip checks' if you are making non-functional changes or working on an incomplete feature.

What kind of 'context' does this skill capture?

It specifically asks for Decisions (design choices and trade-offs) and Learnings (technical discoveries or gotchas), which are recorded using the 'ctx' utility.

What is a doc drift check?

If you modify core source files, the skill will ask if you want to run a documentation update to ensure your READMEs and guides accurately reflect the latest code changes.

Does it support automated commit message generation?

Yes, if you don't provide a message, the skill drafts one based on your changes, focusing on the 'why' instead of the 'what' to provide better historical value.

How does ctx-commit differ from a standard git commit?

While a standard commit only tracks code changes, ctx-commit prompts you to record the decisions and learnings associated with those changes, storing them in a file-based system for future AI context.

Automates Git commits while capturing architectural decisions and project learnings to preserve context for future AI coding sessions.

Contextual Git Commit (ctx-commit) bridges the gap between version control and knowledge management by ensuring every meaningful code change is accompanied by the 'why' behind it. This skill streamlines the developer workflow by performing pre-commit build checks, drafting intent-focused commit messages, and interactively prompting users to record design trade-offs or technical discoveries. By integrating with the ctx persistence system, it helps maintain a high-fidelity project memory that allows Claude and other AI assistants to resume work with full awareness of past decisions.
