## About

# Git Commit Helper (No Scope)

Generate conventional commit messages without a scope.

## When to use this skill

- The user asks for a commit message
- Staged changes exist
- The user is about to run `git commit`
- The user mentions conventional or semantic commits

## Workflow

1. Review staged files and the staged diff.
2. Identify the primary change type and any breaking changes.
3. Draft a commit message using the format below.
4. Provide a short rationale and ask if the user wants adjustments.

## Commit format (no scope)

```
: 

```

## Types

- `feat`: New feature
- `fix`: Bug fix
- `docs`: Documentation changes
- `style`: Formatting only (no logic change)
- `refactor`: Code restructuring without behavior change
- `perf`: Performance improvements
- `test`: Test additions or fixes
- `build`: Build system or tooling changes
- `ci`: CI/CD pipeline changes
- `chore`: Maintenance tasks

## Subject checklist

- Imperative mood ("add", "fix", "update")
- 50-72 characters max
- No trailing period
- Describes what and why, not how
- Lowercase after the type

## Breaking changes

If the change is breaking, include a footer:

```
BREAKING CHANGE: 
```

## Examples

### Feature

```
feat: add jwt authentication for api requests

- implement token validation middleware
- add login and refresh endpoints

Closes #42
```

### Fix

```
fix: prevent memory leak in user list

Clean up subscriptions when the component unmounts.
```

### Refactor

```
refactor: extract repository layer for database access

No functional changes. Improves testability and separation.
```

### Breaking change

```
feat: update user api response structure

BREAKING CHANGE: response is now { data, metadata }.
```

## Output expectations

- Provide the recommended commit message in full.
- Explain the chosen type and any breaking change rationale.
