Git Recovery Handbook
A portable handbook for undoing, recovering, and rewriting Git safely — with receipts, not folklore.
Portable policy knowledge for local retrieval.
Git Recovery Handbook is a Knowledge Image of the commands and decisions you need after a bad commit, reset, rebase, merge, or push.
Query it like you would ask a teammate: "undo the last commit but keep my changes", "recover a deleted branch", "force-with-lease vs --force".
Namespaces split the mental model, reversible undos, recovery, history rewrite, remotes, conflicts, safety, and copy-paste recipes.
The included git-recovery-coach agent is metadata only. Hub and @knolo/core do not execute it. Its tool policy denies shell, git, exec, and bash.
Every published version is immutable and content-addressed. Pin the sha256 from the Hub manifest before you trust a local copy.
Intended use
Grounding developer and on-call assistants in reversible Git recovery steps, and as a local lookup pack when a working tree is in a bad state.
Out of scope
This pack does not run Git, rewrite repositories, rotate credentials, or replace host branch-protection rules. Commands are described for a human to run.

Sample questions
This Knowledge Image contains prompts, tool policy, namespace grants, or other agent registry metadata.
Mounting the pack for retrieval does not execute tools. Applying these policies affects your application only if your host explicitly honors them.
Credentials must never be stored inside a pack.
