Auto Push

Commit and Push Everything

CAUTION: Stage ALL changes, commit, and push to remote. Use only when confident all changes belong together.

When to Use

Trigger this skill when the user asks to "commit and push everything", "ship this", "auto-push", or otherwise wants a one-shot stage-commit-push for the current working tree. Skip when they want PRs, code review, releases, or tags.

Sync Repo Before Edits

Before creating/updating/deleting files in an existing repository, sync the current branch with remote:

branch="$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)"
git fetch origin
git pull --rebase origin "$branch"

If the working tree is not clean, stash first, sync, then restore:

git stash push -u -m "pre-sync"
branch="$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)"
git fetch origin && git pull --rebase origin "$branch"
git stash pop

If origin is missing, pull is unavailable, or rebase/stash conflicts occur, stop and ask the user before continuing.

Instructions

Step 1: Analyze Changes

Run in parallel:

• git status - Show modified/added/deleted/untracked files
• git diff --stat - Show change statistics
• git log -1 --oneline - Show recent commit for message style

Step 2: Run Safety Checks

❌ STOP and WARN if detected:

• Secrets: .env*, *.key, *.pem, credentials.json, secrets.yaml, id_rsa, *.p12, *.pfx, *.cer
• API Keys: Any *_API_KEY, *_SECRET, *_TOKEN variables with real values (not placeholders like your-api-key, xxx, placeholder)
• Large files: >10MB without Git LFS
• Build artifacts: node_modules/, dist/, build/, __pycache__/, *.pyc, .venv/
• Temp files: .DS_Store, thumbs.db, *.swp, *.tmp

API Key Validation: Check modified files for patterns like:

OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-proj-xxxxx  # ❌ Real key detected!
AWS_SECRET_KEY=AKIA...         # ❌ Real key detected!
STRIPE_API_KEY=sk_live_...    # ❌ Real key detected!

# ✅ Acceptable placeholders:
API_KEY=your-api-key-here
SECRET_KEY=placeholder
TOKEN=xxx
API_KEY=
SECRET=${YOUR_SECRET}

✅ Verify:

• .gitignore properly configured
• No merge conflicts
• Correct branch (warn if main/master)
• API keys are placeholders only

Step 3: Confirm and Execute

Present a short summary as a dry-run preview, then proceed directly when safety checks pass. If any safety check fails, STOP and ask for explicit user confirmation before continuing — never bypass a failed safety check without a confirmation prompt.

📊 Changes Summary:
- X files modified, Y added, Z deleted
- Total: +AAA insertions, -BBB deletions

🔒 Safety: ✅ No secrets | ✅ No large files | ⚠️ [warnings]
🌿 Branch: [name] → origin/[name]

Proceeding now: git add . → commit → push

When all safety checks pass, proceed directly without an additional yes/no confirmation prompt.

Step 4: Stage Files

Run sequentially:

git add .
git status  # Verify staging

Step 5: Generate Commit Message

Analyze changes and create conventional commit:

Format:

[type]: Brief summary (max 72 characters)

- Key change 1
- Key change 2
- Key change 3

Types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test, chore, perf, build, ci

Example:

docs: Update concept README files with comprehensive documentation

- Add architecture diagrams and tables
- Include practical examples
- Expand best practices sections

Step 6: Commit and Push

git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
[Generated commit message]
EOF
)"
git push  # If fails: git pull --rebase && git push
git log -1 --oneline --decorate  # Verify

Step 7: Report Success

✅ Successfully pushed to remote!

Commit: [hash] [message]
Branch: [branch] → origin/[branch]
Files changed: X (+insertions, -deletions)

Expected Output

On success, the skill outputs a confirmation block:

✅ Successfully pushed to remote!

Commit: abc1234 feat: add login page with OAuth support
Branch: feature/auth → origin/feature/auth
Files changed: 4 (+112, -8)

If safety checks block the push, the skill outputs:

❌ Push blocked — secrets detected

  .env: OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-proj-xxxxx (real key)

Action required: remove or rotate the key, then re-run /auto-push.

Acceptance Criteria

The skill run is successful when all of the following hold:

• [ ] Working tree synced with origin (git fetch ran; rebase clean or stash/pop completed without conflicts)
• [ ] Safety scan reported no secrets, no real API keys, and no large binaries — or the user explicitly confirmed each warning
• [ ] Branch is correct (warned and confirmed if main/master)
• [ ] Commit message follows the conventional format from Step 5
• [ ] git push exited 0 and git log -1 shows the new commit on the remote-tracking ref
• [ ] Final success report printed (commit hash, branch, file counts)

Handle Edge Cases and Errors

For the edge-case table, per-phase step-completion report format, error-handling guidance, and alternative workflows (selective staging, interactive git add -p, PR flow), see [references/edge-cases-and-reports.md](./references/edge-cases-and-reports.md).

Remember: Always review changes before pushing. When in doubt, use individual git commands for more control.
