Description
"Create well-formatted commits with conventional commit messages. Use when user asks to commit, wants to commit changes, or needs help with commit messages."

Commit

Create well-formatted git commits following Conventional Commits.

Format

<type>[optional scope]: <description>

[optional body]

[optional footer(s)]

Types

  • feat: New feature
  • fix: Bug fix
  • docs: Documentation only
  • style: Formatting, missing semi-colons, etc. (no code change)
  • refactor: Code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
  • perf: Performance improvement
  • test: Adding missing tests
  • chore: Maintenance tasks (build process, dependencies, etc.)

Guidelines

  • Subject line: Imperative mood ("add", not "added"); aim for ≤50 characters.
  • Body: Wrap at 72; explain what and why, not how.
  • Scope: Optional, indicates section of codebase (e.g., feat(auth):).
  • Breaking changes: Add ! after type/scope (e.g., feat!:) and explain in footer.

Process

  1. Review staged changes (git diff --staged) and outstanding git status.
  2. Stage files explicitly when there's any chance git add -A would sweep in secrets or unrelated work.
  3. Pick the type and scope that fit.
  4. Write a concise subject; add a body when the change isn't self-explanatory.

Examples

feat(auth): add OAuth2 login support

Implements Google and GitHub OAuth providers.
Closes #123
fix: resolve race condition in data fetcher

The previous implementation could return stale data
when multiple requests were in flight.
chore: update dependencies to latest versions
