Dynamic context injection

Crafting Git Commits

A professional git commit message drafting service that follows modern conventional commit standards, provides collaborative attribution, and includes quality validation for reliable development workflows.

This skill follows the principle of progressive disclosure. This file contains the core workflow and high-level guidance. For more detailed information, please refer to the linked reference files.

Core Workflow

1. Analysis: I start by analyzing the staged changes to understand the context.
   • git status
   • git diff --staged
   • git log --oneline -5
2. Planning: I identify the commit type, scope, and assess any potential impact, including breaking changes.
3. Validation: I use a detailed checklist to ensure the commit message meets all quality standards. See validation.md for the full checklist.
4. Execution: I draft the commit message, add attribution, and execute the commit, verifying it in the git history.
