allowed-tools	description
Bash(git status:*), Bash(git diff:*), Bash(git show:*), Bash(git commit:*)	Amend the most recent commit (with staged changes and/or message reword)

Context

Current staged changes: !git diff --cached --stat

Files in most recent commit: !git show --stat --pretty=format: HEAD | grep -v '^$'

Recent commit history (for style reference): !git log --oneline -5

Your task

Amend the most recent commit using git commit --amend -m "your new message".

CRITICAL: You MUST write a new commit message. DO NOT use --no-edit.

Process:

1. Analyze what files are changing:

   • If staged changes exist: combined old commit files + new staged files
   • If no staged changes: just the files from the original commit

2. Write an appropriate commit message that describes ALL the changes (both original and newly staged)

   • Follow the commit style from recent history
   • Scale complexity to the changes (simple renames = short message, complex features = detailed message)

3. Execute: git commit --amend -m "your new message"

Important:

• NEVER use --no-edit - always write a fresh commit message
• DO NOT fetch the old commit message - it's irrelevant
• The message should describe what the commit does NOW (after amendment), not what it did before
• If in plan mode, proceed anyway - command execution is implied
• Use a single bash command: git commit --amend -m "message"
• Do not stage additional files beyond what is already staged
