Conventional Commits
When creating any git commit in this repository, follow the project's commit convention.
Unlike the /commit command (which the user invokes explicitly), this skill applies
automatically whenever a commit message is being authored.
Format
Single-line, when a GitHub issue applies:
<type>: (#<issue_number>) <issue_name> - <description>.
Single-line, when no GitHub issue applies:
<type>: <description>.
Multiline, when the change spans multiple concerns:
<type>: (#<issue_number>) <issue_name>:
- <description_line_1>.
- <description_line_2>.
Rules
<type>is exactly one of:New feature,Fix issue,Other.- Single-line messages end with
.; the first line of a multiline message ends with:. - Every bullet starts with
-and ends with.. - Use present tense, imperative mood ("add feature", not "added feature").
- Keep commits atomic — one logical concern per commit. Split unrelated changes into separate commits.
- NEVER add trailers such as "Generated with Claude Code", author info, or co-author lines.
