Commit Message Helper

A skill for creating properly formatted Git commit messages following the Conventional Commits specification.

When This Skill Activates

This skill activates when you:

Ask to commit changes
Mention commit messages
Request git commit formatting
Say "commit" or "git commit"

Commit Message Format

<type>(<scope>): <subject>

<body>

<footer>

Types

Type	Description
`feat`	A new feature
`fix`	A bug fix
`docs`	Documentation only changes
`style`	Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (formatting, etc.)
`refactor`	A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
`perf`	A code change that improves performance
`test`	Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
`chore`	Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools
`ci`	Changes to CI configuration files and scripts
`build`	Changes that affect the build system or external dependencies

Scope

The scope should indicate the area of the codebase affected:

For frontend: components, hooks, store, styles, utils
For backend: api, models, services, database, auth
For devops: ci, deploy, docker
Project-specific scopes are also acceptable

Guidelines

Subject Line

Use imperative mood ("add feature" not "added feature" or "adds feature")
No period at the end
Maximum 50 characters
Be specific and concise

Body

Separate subject from body with a blank line
Use the body to explain what and why, not how
Wrap at 72 characters per line
Mention any breaking changes

Footer

Reference issues: Closes #123, Fixes #456, Refs #789
Multiple issues: Closes #123, #456, #789
Breaking changes: Start with BREAKING CHANGE: followed by description

Examples

Good Examples

feat(auth): add OAuth2 login support

Implement OAuth2 authentication flow to allow users to log in
with their Google or GitHub accounts.

This change adds:
- New OAuth2 middleware for handling callbacks
- Updated login UI with social login buttons
- User profile synchronization

Closes #123

fix(api): resolve race condition in user creation

The concurrent user creation requests could result in duplicate
email entries. Added unique constraint and proper error handling.

Fixes #456

refactor(user): simplify profile update logic

Extracted common validation logic into a reusable function
to reduce code duplication across profile update endpoints.

docs: update API documentation with new endpoints

Added documentation for the v2 user management endpoints
including request/response examples and error codes.

Bad Examples

updated stuff                    # Too vague, no type/scope
fixed bug                        # No context about which bug
feat: added feature              # Redundant ("feat" means new feature)
Feat(User): Add Login            # Incorrect capitalization
feat: A really really really long subject line that exceeds the recommended limit  # Too long

Breaking Changes

When introducing breaking changes, add BREAKING CHANGE: to the footer:

feat(api): migrate to REST v2

The API endpoints have been restructured for better consistency.
Old endpoints are deprecated and will be removed in v3.0.

BREAKING CHANGE: `/api/v1/users` is now `/api/v2/users`.
All consumers must update their integration by 2025-03-01.

Workflow

When writing a commit message:

Review changes - Run git diff to understand what changed
Identify type - Determine the type of change
Identify scope - Determine which area is affected
Write subject - Create a clear, concise subject line
Write body - Explain what and why (if needed)
Add footer - Reference issues or note breaking changes

Validation

Use the validation script to check commit message format:

python3 scripts/validate_commit.py "feat(scope): add behavior"

Install commit-helper and it becomes one more candidate the router can pick - when it fits.

A listing is a routing target with a manifest: what it does, which domains it covers, what it costs and who publishes it. Once installed it sits beside your own models and tools, is scored like any other candidate for each request, and shows up in the trace when it wins. Ratings come from workspaces that installed it, one per account.
