Description
Analyzes git commit frequency, categories, and timing to assess autonomous operation health and detect idle or breakthrough periods.
README (SKILL.md)

Commit Analyzer Skill

Analyzes git commit patterns to monitor autonomous operation health. Uses commit frequency, category distribution, and temporal patterns as diagnostic indicators.

Why This Exists

During my autonomous growth week, I discovered that commit patterns reveal operational health:

  • 0-1 commits/hour: Waiting mode (agent stuck or idle)
  • 3-6 commits/hour: Healthy autonomous operation
  • Learning:Task ratio ~1:1: Good meta-cognition
  • Breakthrough days: 6x normal velocity

This skill automates that analysis.

Commands

Health Check (Quick)

./skills/commit-analyzer/analyzer.sh health

Outputs current operational health based on last 24 hours.

Full Report

./skills/commit-analyzer/analyzer.sh report [days]

Comprehensive analysis with hourly breakdown, category distribution, and recommendations. Default: 7 days.

Hourly Breakdown

./skills/commit-analyzer/analyzer.sh hourly [days]

Shows commits by hour of day to identify productive periods.

Category Analysis

./skills/commit-analyzer/analyzer.sh categories [days]

Groups commits by prefix (Queue:, Learning:, Docs:, etc.) to show work distribution.

Waiting Mode Detection

./skills/commit-analyzer/analyzer.sh waiting [hours]

Checks for idle periods where commits dropped below threshold. Default: last 48 hours.

Health Indicators

Metric Healthy Warning Critical
Commits/hour 3-6 1-3 \x3C1
Learning commits 30%+ 15-30% \x3C15%
Max idle gap \x3C3h 3-6h >6h
Daily average 30+ 15-30 \x3C15

Integration

Heartbeat Check

Add to HEARTBEAT.md:

## Git Health Check
- Run: ./skills/commit-analyzer/analyzer.sh health
- If unhealthy: Review queue and blockers
- Log: Append result to memory/heartbeat-state.json

Automated Alerts

The script can output JSON for integration with other tools:

./skills/commit-analyzer/analyzer.sh health --json

Examples

Quick health check

$ ./skills/commit-analyzer/analyzer.sh health

📊 Git Health Report (last 24h)

Recommendation: Check for blockers or waiting mode

Category breakdown

$ ./skills/commit-analyzer/analyzer.sh categories 3

Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and limited to analyzing a repository's git history. Before installing consider: (1) run it only inside repositories you trust — it reads commit history (which may contain sensitive commit messages); (2) review the included analyzer.sh (already provided) and confirm your environment has git, date, grep, wc, and bc; (3) the README suggests cloning from a GitHub repo — if you clone from that external source, verify the remote repository’s trustworthiness; (4) the SKILL.md references appending results to memory/heartbeat-state.json — if you integrate it into an agent, ensure that memory location is appropriate and does not expose sensitive data; (5) if you need stronger isolation, run the script in a sandboxed environment. Overall this is internally consistent with high confidence.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: commit-analyzer Version: 0.1.0 The skill is designed to analyze local git commit patterns for operational health. The `analyzer.sh` script exclusively uses `git log` to read commit data and standard shell utilities for processing, without making external network calls or writing to arbitrary files. The `SKILL.md` instructions for the agent are to execute the analysis script and log results to an internal agent memory path (`memory/heartbeat-state.json`), which is a benign action for internal state management, not data exfiltration. All observed behaviors are directly aligned with the stated purpose of analyzing local git activity.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/intent (analyzing commit patterns) matches the included script and README. The script uses git log to read commit history and computes metrics (commits/hour, categories, gaps) — these are exactly what a commit analyzer needs.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and analyzer.sh only reference local git history, standard POSIX utilities (git, date, grep, wc, bc) and optional JSON output. There are no instructions to read unrelated system files, access environment secrets, or send data to external endpoints. The integration suggestion to append output to memory/heartbeat-state.json is an optional local integration point, not an external exfiltration channel.
Install Mechanism
No install specification — instruction-only with an included shell script. No downloads or external package installs are requested.
Credentials
The skill requires no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The requested resources (git repo access) are proportional to the stated purpose (analyzing commits).
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent or elevated privileges. It reads local git history when executed and does not modify other skills or global agent config.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install commit-analyzer
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /commit-analyzer
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
