If you do not want to use MCP, you can use GitHits through the provided Skills. Install them with: 
npx skills add githits-com/githits-cli
During installation, choose which harnesses to install the Skills into. You can also choose whether to install them at user level or project level.
Do not use the GitHits Skills and the GitHits MCP server in the same harness at the same time. They expose overlapping capabilities, so using both usually creates duplicate instructions and confusing tool choices for the agent.

​
When to use Skills

Use Skills when your coding harness has strong Skills support and you prefer instruction-driven workflows over a local MCP server. Use the MCP server when you want your agent to call GitHits tools directly through MCP. For most users, the MCP setup from npx githits@latest init is the default path.

​
Relationship to MCP

Skills are complementary to the MCP server. If you already use the MCP server, you usually do not need to install the Skills. To switch from MCP to Skills:
  1. Remove or disable the GitHits MCP server from that harness.
  2. Install the Skills with npx skills add githits-com/githits-cli.
  3. Restart the harness so it loads the new instructions.
