Git-backed state management for safe rollback. Create and restore checkpoints with tagged commits and metadata tracking.
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by a5c-ai/babysitter in library/methodologies/claudekit/skills/checkpoint-management/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
- Stage all current changes
