git-submodule SKILL.md skillA

git-submodule from akillness/jeo-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add akillness/jeo-skills/git-submodule@v2.1.0

Pins v2.1.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Decide when Git submodules are the right external-repo boundary, then choose one safe operator flow: add and pin, bootstrap recursively, sync to the recorded commit, advance a tracked branch, edit inside the submodule without detached-HEAD surprises, remove cleanly, or configure CI/hosted-platform checkout constraints. Use when the user asks about `.gitmodules`, `git submodule`, recursive clone/setup, pointer updates, detached HEAD, private submodules in CI, GitHub Pages submodule limits, or…

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

# Git Submodule

Use this skill as the repository's **Git submodule choice and operator-workflow anchor**.

The job is not to dump every `git submodule` command in one blob. The job is to:
1. decide whether submodule is the right boundary at all,
2. choose one operating mode,
3. keep pinned-commit, detached-`HEAD`, and hosted-platform consequences explicit,
4. emit the next safe commands only for that mode.

Read [references/decision-matrix.md](references/decision-matrix.md) first.
Read [references/update-and-detached-head.md](references/update-and-detached-head.md) when the request involves pointer updates, detached `HEAD`, or editing inside the submodule.
Read [references/ci-and-automation.md](references/ci-and-automation.md) for CI/bootstrap expectations.
Read [references/mode-packets-and-hosted-constraints.md](references/mode-packets-and-hosted-constraints.md) for mode-specific command packets and GitHub Pages / URL-drift constraints.

If the user mainly needs:
- **local branch/history cleanup, rebase, conflict recovery, or push safety** → use `git-workflow`
- **Node package delivery from Git refs, tarballs, workspaces, or publish-first flows** → use `npm-git-install`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add akillness/jeo-skills/git-submodule@sha256:79ac922e4a68a36f

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.1.0, 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.
