Commit Messages

Format

type(scope): short message

Types

• feat - new feature
• fix - bug fix
• refactor - code refactoring
• chore - maintenance tasks (deps, config, tooling)

Scopes

Always use the app or package name as scope:

Apps: admin, auth, editor, evals, main

Packages: ai, auth, core, db, e2e, error-reporter, mailer, next, testing, tsconfig, ui, utils

Inferred scopes (when change doesn't fit an app/package):

• agents - CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, .claude/ folder
• ci - GitHub workflows, CI/CD configuration
• deps - dependency updates across multiple packages
• data - data layer changes spanning multiple packages

Examples

feat(main): add lesson page
fix(editor): always use custom lesson kind
refactor(db): use enum for step kind
chore(deps): update vercel ai sdk
chore(agents): add commit skill
fix(ci): update node version in workflow

Rules

• Use lowercase for entire message
• No period at the end
• Keep message under 72 characters
• Use imperative mood ("add" not "added")

Author

Always set the AI agent as the commit author:

git commit -m "feat(main): add lesson page" --author="Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>"

PR Descriptions

Keep descriptions brief. Focus on what changed. No need to list verification commands run.
