The Amend Last Commit skill helps an agent read the last commit and its diff, draft a concise, imperative commit message (subject + optional body), and run git commit --amend safely. It focuses on rewriting commit messages only — never modifying staged content — and preserves co-author trailers when present.
Use this skill when the last commit message is unhelpful, needs clarification, or should include additional context (e.g., performance improvement, bug root cause). The skill runs checks for staged changes and warns if amending would include them. It's tailored for interactive developer workflows where concise commit history matters.
git diff HEAD~1), draft a subject line under 72 chars in imperative mood, optionally add a wrapped body, and run git commit --amend with a heredoc. Confirm with git log -1.Works with agents that can run shell/git commands locally (Copilot-style or Claude/Codex setups with repo access). Best for agents with local repo context and safe shell execution privileges.
