contextosai Commit Message
Generate a high-quality commit message that describes the staged changes.
Steps
- Run
git diff --stagedto see what is actually being committed. If nothing is staged, inspectgit statusand ask the user what to stage. - Identify the single primary intent of the change. If the diff does more than one unrelated thing, suggest splitting it into multiple commits.
- Write the message using the Conventional Commits format.
Format
<type>(<optional scope>): <subject>
<body — what changed and why, wrapped at ~72 cols>
- type: one of
feat,fix,refactor,docs,test,chore,perf,build,ci. - subject: imperative mood, lowercase, no trailing period, ≤ 50 chars.
- body: optional. Explain why, not just what. Omit for trivial changes.
Guidelines
- Describe the effect of the change, not the mechanics of editing files.
- Never invent a rationale that isn't supported by the diff.
- One logical change per commit.
Examples
feat(auth): add refresh-token rotation
Tokens are now rotated on every refresh so a leaked token is valid for
at most one cycle.
fix(parser): handle empty input without panicking
