About this capability

Always use this skill before authoring a commit message in the Toasty repository

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by tokio-rs/toasty in .agents/skills/commit/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Load this skill before writing any git commit message in this project.

Always read docs/dev/COMMITS.md before authoring a commit message. It is the authoritative source for the format, allowed types, scope conventions, subject/body/footer rules, and breaking-change notation.

Be succinct

Maintainers reading the log already know Toasty and Rust. Keep the subject and body high-signal: state what changed and why. Skip restated context, obvious explanations, and throat-clearing. A maintainer should grasp the important bits in seconds.
