Commit Helper Skill

Write clear commit messages and structure commits well.

Inspecting the change

Run git status and git diff --staged first. Never write a message without reading the actual diff.

Message format

Subject line under 72 characters, imperative mood, no trailing period. Add a body only when the why isn't obvious from the diff.

Splitting commits

If the diff mixes unrelated concerns, stage hunks separately with git add -p and make one commit per concern.
