Write a clear, conventional commit message from the staged diff.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# git-commit

Use this when the user asks you to commit staged changes and wants a well-formed message.

1. Run `git diff --cached` to see exactly what is staged.
2. Write a single imperative subject line, 50 characters or fewer, capitalized, with no
   trailing period (for example "Add retry to the upload client").
3. If the change needs context, add a blank line and a short body that explains what
   changed and why, wrapped at 72 columns.
4. Show the message and run `git commit` only after the user confirms.

Describe what the diff actually does, not what was intended. Keep one logical change per
commit; if the subject needs the word "and", the commit is probably too big.

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add brattlof/skillet/git-commit@sha256:679d164ccadaa157

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260613.d956a80, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
