Auto-Commit with Conventional Commits Skill

Auto-Commit with Conventional Commits

Automatically stage and commit changes using the conventional commits specification.

Conventional Commits Format

<type>(<scope>): <description>

[optional body]

Commit Types

| Type | When to Use | |------|-------------| | feat | New feature or functionality | | fix | Bug fix | | docs | Documentation only changes | | chore | Maintenance (deps, configs, build) | | refactor | Code restructuring without behavior change | | test | Adding or modifying tests | | style | Formatting, whitespace, linting | | perf | Performance improvements | | ci | CI/CD changes |

Scope (Optional)

Add scope in parentheses for context:

feat(auth): add login endpoint
fix(api): handle null response
docs(readme): update install instructions

Commit Workflow

Check for changes: git status
If changes exist:
- Stage all: git add -A
- Review staged: git diff --staged
- Determine type from changes
- Write concise description (imperative mood)
- Commit with proper format

Message Guidelines

Use imperative mood: "add feature" not "added feature"
Keep first line under 72 characters
Don't end with period
Be specific but concise

Good Examples

feat(api): add user authentication endpoint
fix: resolve null pointer in payment processing
docs: update API usage examples
chore: upgrade dependencies to latest versions
refactor(db): extract query builder to separate module

Bad Examples

updated stuff          # Too vague
Fixed the bug.         # Don't end with period
Added new feature      # Wrong tense

Important

Only commit, do NOT push
Always use conventional commits format
Include scope when it adds clarity
