What's Wrong?

When Claude Code's primary working directory (cwd) is set to one git repository but files are edited in a different git repository (or a sibling worktree), the commit-commands:commit-push-pr and commit-commands:commit plugins run their git commands (git status, git diff, git add, git commit) from the session cwd — not from the repository where the changes actually exist.

The result is the plugin sees an empty diff, produces an empty commit, or stages/commits from the wrong repo entirely.

What Should Happen?

The plugin should operate on the git repository where the files were modified — either by auto-detecting it from the session's recent edits, or by accepting a --workdir parameter.

Error Messages/Logs

No explicit error. The plugin silently reads git state from the wrong directory and produces an empty or incorrect commit.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Claude Code with primary cwd set to /path/to/repo-A
  2. Edit files located in /path/to/repo-B (a different git repository or sibling worktree)
  3. Invoke the commit-commands:commit-push-pr plugin skill
  4. Observe: plugin runs git status and git diff from repo-A, sees no changes
