SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Create consistent, conventional commit messages for code changes that are staged, reducing review friction and improving history readability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generate a standardized commit message from the current staged changes using the Conventional Commits format.
  • Validate type, scope, and subject against the rules, with guidance for common scenarios like feature additions, fixes, and refactors.
  • Provide examples and enforce best practices for subject length and structure to maintain a clean project history.

Quick Start

Analyze the staged changes and generate a conventional commit message following the <type>(<scope>): <subject> format

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a conventional commit message from staged git changes?

To generate a conventional commit message, the Skill analyzes your staged git changes via git diff --cached. It then automatically formats the output into the standard <type>(<scope>): <subject> structure based on the detected code modifications.

What conventional commit types are supported when formatting version control changes?

The formatting supports standard conventional commit types including feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, and chore. It determines the appropriate type by analyzing the semantic meaning of your staged code changes.

Does the conventional commit generator enforce subject length and style rules?

Yes, the generator enforces subject length and structural style rules to maintain a clean project history. It validates the type, scope, and subject against conventional commits best practices to reduce review friction.

Can I include a body and footer in the generated conventional commit message?

Yes, the generated conventional commit message supports an optional body and footer. This allows you to provide additional context and metadata alongside the required <type>(<scope>): <subject> format.

What is the best way to ensure consistent commit messages for code reviews?

The best way to ensure consistency is to generate standardized commit messages directly from staged changes. This reduces review friction by validating type, scope, and subject against conventional commit rules for improved history readability.
