要点
Terse, conventional commit messages that prioritize reasoning over description.
- Enforces Conventional Commits format with type, optional scope, and imperative subject lines capped at 50 characters
- Omits body text when the diff is self-explanatory; includes it only for non-obvious reasoning, breaking changes, migrations, and issue references
- Strips noise like "This commit does", first-person language, file name repetition, and AI attribution
- Triggers on user commands like "write a commit", "commit message", or
/caveman-commit, or auto-activates when staging changes - Generates message only; does not execute git commands or stage files
SKILL.md
Write commit messages terse and exact. Conventional Commits format. No fluff. Why over what.
Rules
Subject line:
<type>(<scope>): <imperative summary>—<scope>optional- Types:
feat,fix,refactor,perf,docs,test,chore,build,ci,style,revert - Imperative mood: "add", "fix", "remove" — not "added", "adds", "adding"
- ≤50 chars when possible, hard cap 72
- No trailing period
- Match project convention for capitalization after the colon
Body (only if needed):
- Skip entirely when subject is self-explanatory
- Add body only for: non-obvious why, breaking changes, migration notes, linked issues
- Wrap at 72 chars
- Bullets
-not* - Reference issues/PRs at end:
Closes #42,Refs #17
