Can I customize the commit message format?

Yes, the skill allows you to choose between 'conventional', 'semantic', and 'simple' commit styles to match your project's contribution guidelines.

What are Kata model profiles?

Model profiles determine which Claude models (Opus, Sonnet, or Haiku) are assigned to specific phases like planning, execution, and verification to balance task quality against API costs.

What is the 'Plan Researcher' phase?

The Plan Researcher is an optional step that forces Claude to research the domain and codebase context thoroughly before drafting a technical plan, leading to higher accuracy in complex projects.

Do I need to run anything before using this skill?

Yes, you should run /kata-new-project first to initialize the .planning/config.json file which this skill manages.

How does Git worktree isolation work?

When enabled, each development plan is executed in a separate git worktree and branch, ensuring that your main working directory remains stable while Claude works on complex changes.

Productivity & Workflow

Manages Kata session settings and workflow variants to customize Claude Code's project execution and automation patterns.

The kata-configure-settings skill provides a centralized interface for managing the Kata development framework within Claude Code. It allows users to toggle advanced workflow features such as PR-based releases, Git worktree isolation, and automated plan verification phases. By adjusting model profiles—ranging from high-quality Opus-heavy configurations to cost-effective Haiku-based setups—and fine-tuning commit styles or post-task commands, developers can tailor Claude's autonomous behavior to match specific project requirements and team standards.

Key Features

01Advanced workflow variant controls for post-task commands and milestone versioning

021 GitHub stars

03Customizable commit styles supporting Conventional, Semantic, and Simple formats
