## Overview
This skill helps you create well-formatted, informative commit messages that follow the conventional commits standard, improving collaboration and automation in your Git workflow. It saves you time and ensures consistency across your project.
## How It Works
1. **Analyze Changes**: The skill analyzes the staged changes in your Git repository.
2. **Generate Suggestion**: It uses AI to generate a commit message based on the analyzed changes, adhering to the conventional commits format (e.g., `feat: add new feature`, `fix: correct bug`).
3. **Present to User**: The generated commit message is presented to you for review and acceptance.
## When to Use This Skill
This skill activates when you need to:
- Create a commit message after making code changes.
- Ensure your commit messages follow the conventional commits standard.
- Save time writing commit messages manually.
## Examples
### Example 1: Adding a New Feature
User request: "Generate a commit message for these changes."
The skill will:
1. Analyze the staged changes related to a new feature.
2. Generate a commit message like `feat: Implement user authentication`.
### Example 2: Fixing a Bug
User request: "Create a commit for the bug fix."
The skill will:
1. Analyze the staged changes related to a bug fix.
2. Generate a commit message like `fix: Resolve issue with incorrect password reset`.
## Best Practices
- **Stage Changes**: Ensure all relevant changes are staged before using the skill.
- **Review Carefully**: Always review the generated commit message before accepting it.
- **Customize if Needed**: Feel free to customize the generated message to provide more context.
## Integration
This skill integrates with your Git workflow, providing a convenient way to generate commit messages directly within Claude Code. It complements other Git-related skills in the DevOps Automation Pack, such as `/branch-create` and `/pr-create`.
