commit-workflow	This skill should be used when user asks to "commit these changes", "write commit message", "stage and commit", "create a commit", "commit staged files", or runs /commit-staged or /commit-creator commands.

Commit Workflow

Complete workflow for creating commits following project standards.

Process

1. Use commit-creator agent

   • Run /commit-staged [context] for automated commit handling
   • Or follow manual steps below

2. Analyze staged files only

   • Check all staged files: git diff --cached --name-only
   • Read diffs: git diff --cached
   • Completely ignore unstaged changes

3. Commit message format

   • First line: {task-type}: brief description of the big picture change
   • Task types: feat, fix, refactor, docs, style, test, build
   • Focus on 'why' and 'what', not implementation details
   • For complex changes, add bullet points after blank line

4. Message examples

   • feat: implement user authentication system
   • fix: resolve memory leak in data processing pipeline
   • refactor: restructure API handlers to align with project architecture

5. Documentation update

   • Check README.md for:
     • New features that should be documented
     • Outdated descriptions no longer matching implementation
     • Missing setup instructions for new dependencies
   • Update as needed based on staged changes

6. Execution

   • Commit uses HEREDOC syntax for proper formatting
   • Verify commit message has correct format
   • Don't add test plans to commit messages

Best Practices

• Analyze staged files before writing message
• Keep first line concise (50 chars recommended)
• Use active voice in message
• Reference related code if helpful
• One logical change per commit
• Ensure README reflects implementation
