Our review
Manages Git commit co-authors for mob or pair programming workflows.
Strengths
- Automates co-author setup using initials
- Infers and adds new contributors with email patterns
- Supports both solo and team mode seamlessly
Limitations
- Requires git mob and git solo tools to be installed
- Initials collision may require manual resolution
- Does not handle advanced rebase or merge scenarios
When you are mob or pair programming and want to automatically credit all participants in commits.
If you use a different version control system (Mercurial, etc.) or prefer to add co-authors manually.
Security analysis
SafeThe skill uses constrained Bash aliases (git mob, git solo, git add-coauthor, git mob-print) that only modify co-author metadata; no dangerous commands, secrets exposure, or external data exfiltration.

Mob Programming Co-author Manager
Workflow
1. Solo Mode
If arguments indicate solo work (e.g., "solo", "just me"): run git solo, report primary author, exit.
2. Load Co-authors
Use git mob -p to find coauthors file, read with Read tool, parse JSON for available co-authors and initials.
3. Match Names to Initials
Match each name: exact initials → name substring (case-insensitive) → email prefix. If ambiguous, ask user to clarify.
4. Handle Unknown Names
If no match:
- Infer email from existing patterns (domain, naming convention)
- Generate initials from name (avoid collisions)
- Prompt for confirmation (show initials, name, inferred email)
- Run
git add-coauthor <initials> "<name>" <email>
5. Set Mob
Run git mob <initials...> with resolved initials.
6. Report
Show primary author and all co-authors with names.
Example
/mob alice dana
→ alice → aw (Alice Wong)
→ dana not found → infer dana@acme.com → add as dw
→ git mob aw dw
Edge Cases
Handle: missing coauthors file (create it), empty args (show status), ambiguous matches (prompt), mixed known/unknown (resolve known first).
