name: commit-reminder
description: >-
  Use when a project has accumulated uncommitted changes and nobody has said so out loud —
  several edits in a row with no commit in between — or when a subagent may be stuck and about
  to lose its work ("did that agent commit?", "is anything at risk?", "ensure work is
  committed"). A PostToolUse hook watches the live `git status --porcelain` count after every
  edit-shaped tool call and commands a commit once it crosses a threshold; after repeated
  unanswered commands it records the work as at risk, and `scripts/ensure_committed.py` reports
  that to a parent.
