Git Workflows Pro

Advanced Git operations wrapped as tools for OpenClaw agents. These are the operations you do rarely but need to be correct.

Why This Exists

Standard git skill covers add/commit/push/status. This skill covers everything else:

• Interactive rebase (squash, reorder, edit, autosquash)
• Worktrees for parallel development
• Reflog recovery when you think you've lost commits
• Subtrees for dependency management
• PR creation with required human-written intent
• Changelog generation

All based on battle-tested patterns from ClawHub's git-workflows and pr-commit-workflow.

Tools

git_rebase_interactive

Start an interactive rebase. Returns the todo list and guidance.

{
  "base": "HEAD~5",
  "autosquash": true
}

Response includes:

• todo_list — the generated todo with current commit hashes and messages
• instructions — how to edit, save, continue, abort

git_worktree_add

Create a new worktree for a branch, allowing simultaneous work on multiple branches without cloning.

{
  "branch": "feature/new-ui",
  "path": "/path/to/worktrees/new-ui"
}

Creates directory, checks out branch. Returns new worktree path.

git_reflog_recover

List reflog entries or restore a lost commit.

List:

{ "action": "list" }

Restore:

{
  "action": "restore",
  "commit_hash": "abc123",
  "target_branch": "main"
}

Creates a new branch at that commit or updates existing.

git_subtree_add

Add another repository as a subtree under a prefix.

{
  "repo_url": "https://github.com/user/lib.git",
  "prefix": "vendor/lib",
  "branch": "main"
}

Runs git subtree add --prefix.

git_pr_create

Create a PR on GitHub. Requires human-written title and body (no generation). Uses gh CLI.

{
  "title": "Add input validation to user model",
  "body": "This fixes the issue where users could submit empty forms. The validation checks for null and empty strings.\n\nTesting: Added unit tests for edge cases.",
  "head": "feature/input-validation",
  "base": "main",
  "draft": false
}

Returns PR URL and number.

git_changelog_generate

Generate a markdown changelog between two tags or from last tag to HEAD.

{
  "from_tag": "v1.2.0",
  "to_tag": "v1.3.0",
  "output_format": "markdown"
}

Outputs grouped commits by type (feat, fix, breaking) if conventional commits used.

Prerequisites

• Git installed
• GitHub CLI (gh) for PR creation
• Authenticated with gh auth login

Usage

All tools are invoked via the registry:

tool("git-workflows-pro", "git_rebase_interactive", {"base": "HEAD~10", "autosquash": true})
tool("git-workflows-pro", "git_worktree_add", {"branch": "feature/foo", "path": "./worktrees/foo"})
tool("git-workflows-pro", "git_pr_create", {"title": "...", "body": "...", "head": "my-branch"})

Safety

• Interactive rebase returns todo but does NOT execute; agent must apply changes manually
• PR creation requires explicit human-written title/body (no autogeneration)
• All destructive operations (subtree, reflog restore) print warnings and require additional flag if truly dangerous (not yet implemented)

Future

• Add git_bisect_start, git_bisect_run
• Add git_cherry_pick_across_fork for cross-repo pick
• Add git_merge_conflict_resolution strategies
• Add MCP server for Git operations (read-only)
