# Conventional Commits Skill
## When to Use
- Every time a git commit is made
- When the user asks to "commit this" or "save progress"
- When auto-committing after task completion
## Reference
[Conventional Commits v1.0.0](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/)
## Instructions
### 1. Commit Message Format
```
<type>[optional scope]: <description>
[optional body]
[optional footer(s)]
```
### 2. Types
| Type | When to Use |
|------|-------------|
| `feat` | New feature or capability |
| `fix` | Bug fix |
| `docs` | Documentation only changes |
| `style` | Formatting, missing semicolons, etc. (no code change) |
| `refactor` | Code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature |
| `perf` | Performance improvement |
| `test` | Adding or correcting tests |
| `build` | Build system or external dependency changes |
| `ci` | CI configuration changes |
| `chore` | Other changes that don't modify src or test files |
### 3. Scope (Optional)
Use the BRAINIAC phase or module name:
- `feat(idea): add competitor analysis playbook`
- `docs(planning): update tech stack playbook`
- `feat(skills): add market-research skill`
- `fix(landing-page): correct CTA link`
### 4. Breaking Changes
Add `!` after type/scope for breaking changes:
```
feat(api)!: change authentication flow to OAuth2
```
Or use footer:
```
feat(api): change authentication flow
BREAKING CHANGE: JWT tokens are no longer accepted.
```
### 5. Examples
```
feat(idea): add structured competitor analysis playbook
docs(skills): create market-research skill with Firecrawl integration
fix(landing-page): correct hero section gradient on mobile
chore(tasks): reset todo.md for foundations sprint
refactor(playbooks): rewrite idea phase to match new template
```
### 6. Rules
- Description: lowercase, imperative mood, no period at end
- Max 72 characters for the first line
- Body wraps at 100 characters
- One logical change per commit
- Reference issue numbers in footer when applicable: `Refs: #123`
## Quality Gates
- First line matches `<type>[scope]: <description>` format
- Type is from the approved list
- Description is imperative mood ("add" not "added", "fix" not "fixed")
- No commits with generic messages like "update", "fix stuff", "wip"
