What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by byline-cms/bylinecms.dev in .agents/skills/commit/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Create one intentional commit for the current worktree. Treat any text accompanying the invocation as a message hint, not as permission to ignore repository conventions or include unrelated changes.
Workflow
- Inspect
git status --short,git diff,git diff --cached, andgit log --oneline -10. Never use-uall. - Identify the files that form one independently verifiable change. Preserve unrelated tracked, staged, and untracked work.
- Select a conventional subject matching recent history:
feat(scope): ...for a feature or significant enhancementfix(scope): ...for a bug fixchore: ...orchore(deps): ...for maintenance or dependency updatesrefactor: ...,docs: ...,test: ...,style: ...,ci: ..., orperf: ...when appropriate
- Use a scope only when the change is clearly confined to one area. Keep the subject concise and lowercase after the colon, prefer past tense, and omit a trailing period.
- Stage specific files rather than
git add -A. Never stage.envfiles, credentials, tokens, generated secrets, or unrelated changes. - Reinspect the staged diff. Run an appropriate focused verification if the change has not already been verified.
- Commit with the conventional one-line subject. Do not skip hooks or signing.
- Run
git status --shortand report the commit SHA, subject, verification performed, and any remaining changes.
