Reorganize Branch Commits
Reorganize the commits on a non-default git branch into a clean, logical history by rewriting the branch — `git reset` + re-commit by default, scripted `git rebase -i` when commit boundaries already align. Propose groupings based on the actual work done (features, refactors, tests, fixes, docs), get explicit user approval, then rewrite history while re-signing commits and running hooks. Use this skill whenever the user wants to tidy up, clean up, reorganize, restructure, squash, or curate commits on a feature branch — even if they phrase it as "my branch is a mess", "squash this down", "combine these commits", "fix up the commit log before I open a PR", or "make the commits presentable for review". Trigger proactively when the user is about to open or push a PR and the branch has scrappy/WIP/"fix" commits to collapse. Refuses to operate on default or release-shaped branches (main, master, develop, trunk, production, release, or the repo default) — a feature-branch-only tool.

From the source SKILL.md
Restructure the commits on a non-default branch into a clean, logical history. Two jobs: (1) propose a grouping grounded in the actual diffs, and (2) execute the rewrite safely — default branches refused, backup first, new commits re-signed, hooks run.
What this skill does
Reorganize Branch Commits is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the product-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/reorganize-branch-commits/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
Who uses this skill
The Reorganize Branch Commits Claude Code skill is built for product managers, product designers, and cross-functional teams planning, shipping, and measuring product features. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 211,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
