Use the format type(scope): imperative summary, with types like feat, fix, refactor, or docs. Keep the subject under 50 characters with a hard cap of 72, use imperative mood like "add" instead of "added", and omit the trailing period.
Add a body only when the why is non-obvious, and always for breaking changes, security fixes, data migrations, and reverts. Wrap body lines at 72 characters and reference issues at the end with lines like Closes #42.
Append an exclamation mark after the type or scope, such as feat(api)!: rename /v1/orders to /v1/checkout, then include a BREAKING CHANGE footer in the body describing the migration path and deadlines.
No. It only generates the commit message text and outputs it as a code block ready to paste. It does not stage files, run git commit, or amend existing commits.
Avoid phrases like "this commit does X", first-person pronouns, AI attribution lines, and restating file names already covered by the scope. Emoji are excluded unless the project convention requires them.
