Infrastructure safety skill for blocking dangerous git commands in Claude-driven workflows. Use when the repo or user environment needs guardrails against destructive git operations. Not a delivery-pipeline step; it makes later work safer.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Setup Git Guardrails

Sets up a PreToolUse hook that intercepts and blocks dangerous git commands before Claude executes them, and refuses `gh pr merge` when the pull request's review stamp is stale.

## Invocation Position

This is an infrastructure safety skill, not a feature-delivery step.

Use `/git-guardrails-claude-code` when the project or user wants stronger protection against destructive git operations in Claude-driven workflows.

Do not treat it as part of the normal feature pipeline. It is a repo or user setup action that makes later work safer.

## What Gets Blocked

- `git push --force` / `git push -f` / `git push --force-with-lease`
- `git push origin +main` (a leading `+` on a refspec is a force push)
- `git push --mirror` (force-updates every remote ref)
- `git reset --hard`
- `git clean -f` / `git clean -fd` / `git clean -df` / `git clean -d -f`
- `git branch -D` / `git branch --delete --force` / `git branch -f -d`
- `git checkout .` / `git restore .` / `git checkout -- .` / `git restore -- .`
- `git checkout ./` / `git checkout ./.` / `git checkout :/` / `git restore :/`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add chrislacey89/skills/git-guardrails-claude-code@sha256:8e2b075db893c746

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261018.026d760, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
