Commit Message Generator

Analyse the current staged changes and generate a conventional commit message.

Workflow

  1. Run git diff --cached --stat to see which files changed
  2. Run git diff --cached to see the actual diff
  3. Determine commit type: feat, fix, refactor, docs, test, chore, style, perf
  4. Write subject line in imperative mood, max 72 characters
  5. Add body paragraph explaining WHY the change was made

Output Format

Output the commit message as plain text, ready to paste into git commit -m. Never wrap in a code block.
