About this capability

Stage and create a Conventional Commits message for the current change

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by evermind-ai/everos in .claude/skills/commit/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Create a well-formed commit following the Conventional Commits standard. The format is enforced by gitlint in the commit-msg hook.

Steps

  1. Run git status and git diff (and git diff --staged) to see what changed.

  2. Review recent history for style: git log --oneline -10.

  3. Group the change into a single focused commit. If the working tree mixes unrelated changes, stage selectively (git add -p / specific paths) rather than committing everything at once.

  4. Write the message in Conventional Commits form:

    <type>[(scope)][!]: <imperative summary, ≤72 chars>
    
    <optional body: what & why, wrapped at 72>
    
    <optional footer: BREAKING CHANGE: …, Refs: #123>
    
  5. Never use --no-verify. If pre-commit hooks fail, fix the cause and re-commit.

  6. Do not commit secrets, generated artifacts, or work-in-progress directly to the protected main branch.

Notes

  • No emoji — the title must start with the type.
  • One logical change per commit; keep the history bisectable.
  • The summary is imperative mood: "add", not "added" / "adds".
  • scope is optional: fix(search): …. A ! before the colon (or a BREAKING CHANGE: footer) marks a breaking change.
