Git Commit Message Generation

When asked to generate a git commit message, satisfy the following rules:

1. Gather Context:

   • Run git status to identify all modified, deleted, and untracked (new) files.
   • Modified files: Run git diff <filename> to see specific changes.
   • Untracked files: Run view_file to read the full content of new documents.
   • Deleted files: Note the removal.
   • Staged files: If changes are already staged, run git diff --cached.

2. Draft Message:

   • Create a conventional commit message based on the actual changes found.
   • Header: Start with a Conventional Commit header (e.g., feat:, fix:, refactor:) that captures the key change.
   • Body: Leave one empty line after the header, then a list of details.
   • Format: Use a simple bulleted list (-) for the details.
   • Style: Use the imperative mood (e.g., “Create”, “Update”, “Fix”, “Refactor”).
   • Quotes: NEVER use double quotes (“) in the commit message content. Use single quotes (‘) instead if you need to quote something.

3. Execute:

   • Construct the final command: git add . && git commit -m "YOUR_MESSAGE_HERE".
   • Output: Present the final command in a markdown code block (bash) so the user can copy/paste if they reject the tool.
   • Then, immediately use the run_command tool to propose this command.

Usage Example

Input: “Commit these changes.”

Context: User has modified several files related to the layout.

Output:

git add . && git commit -m "refactor(learn): unify header layout and simplify access logic

- Create learn/layout.tsx shared layout file for learn routes
- Create LearnPagesHeader.tsx to consolidate title/breadcrumb and UserProfileDropDown.tsx across /learn and /learn/:slug routes
- Update code in UnpaidUserBanner.tsx and NoAccessToThisNote.tsx components
- Consolidate 'Paid User' and 'Valid Access Config' checks into unified logic blocks across pages
- Add JSDoc documentation to BreadcrumbLink.tsx, UserProfileDropdown.tsx and learn/layout.tsx"

Action: Agent then calls run_command with the exact string above.
