What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Set up local Git hooks for pre-commit validation (lint, format, tests, secrets). Integrates with mern-scaffold, nean-scaffold, and iOS projects.

SKILL.md

4.0 KB, as published. Nobody here has run it

Purpose

Install local Git hooks to catch issues before commits reach the remote. Complements github-secure by shifting checks left.

Designed to work with: /mern-scaffold, /mern-kit, /nean-scaffold, /nean-kit, and iOS projects.

Arguments

--platform <p> — Target platform: mern, nean, or ios (auto-detected if not specified)
--no-secrets — Skip secret scanning hook
--no-tests — Skip pre-push test hook

Platform detection

If --platform not specified:

Detect nx.json → NEAN
Detect pnpm-workspace.yaml or turbo.json → MERN
Detect project.yml (XcodeGen) or Package.swift or *.xcodeproj → iOS

What gets created

MERN (using Husky + lint-staged + pnpm)

.husky/
├── pre-commit        # Lint + format staged files
├── commit-msg        # Validate commit message format
└── pre-push          # Run tests before push

.lintstagedrc.json    # Lint-staged configuration
.commitlintrc.json    # Commit message rules
.gitleaks.toml        # Secret scanning config
package.json          # Updated with husky + lint-staged + commitlint

NEAN (using Husky + lint-staged + npm/Nx)

.husky/
├── pre-commit        # Lint + format staged files (via Nx)
├── commit-msg        # Validate commit message format
└── pre-push          # Run affected tests before push

.lintstagedrc.json    # Lint-staged configuration (Nx-aware)
.commitlintrc.json    # Commit message rules
.gitleaks.toml        # Secret scanning config
package.json          # Updated with husky + lint-staged + commitlint

iOS (using git hooks directly)

.githooks/
├── pre-commit        # SwiftLint + SwiftFormat on staged files
├── commit-msg        # Validate commit message format
└── pre-push          # Run tests before push

scripts/
└── install-hooks.sh  # Hook installation script

Hooks installed

pre-commit

Lint staged files (ESLint/SwiftLint)
Format staged files (Prettier/SwiftFormat)
Check for secrets (gitleaks)
Block commits with errors

commit-msg

Enforce conventional commits format
Validate message length
Check for required prefixes

pre-push

Run test suite (NEAN: affected tests only for speed)
Block push if tests fail
Optional: run full build

Workflow

Detect or specify platform
Install hook dependencies
Create hook scripts
Configure hook behavior
Verify hooks work with test commit

Secret scanning

Uses gitleaks to detect:

API keys
Passwords
Tokens
Private keys
Connection strings

MERN integration notes

When used after /mern-scaffold:

Detects existing pnpm workspace and turbo config
Adds dependencies to root package.json
Hooks run the same quality gates as CI (lint, format, test)
Complements the existing ci.yml workflow

NEAN integration notes

When used after /nean-scaffold:

Detects existing Nx workspace (nx.json)
Adds dependencies to root package.json (npm)
Pre-commit runs npx nx affected --target=lint on staged files
Pre-push runs npx nx affected --target=test
Uses Nx's intelligent caching for faster hook execution
Complements the existing ci.yml workflow

iOS integration notes

When used after /ios-scaffold:

Detects project.yml (XcodeGen), Package.swift, or *.xcodeproj
Creates .githooks/ directory with shell scripts
Pre-commit runs SwiftLint + SwiftFormat on staged .swift files
Pre-push runs xcodebuild test
Includes scripts/install-hooks.sh for team onboarding
Complements the existing ci.yml workflow

Output

Hooks installed
Dependencies added
Test commit instructions
Remind to run /github-secure for repository-level security
