The Conventional Commits format — also called "semantic commits" / semantic commit messages — a `type(scope): description` header (`feat`, `fix`, …) plus an optional `BREAKING CHANGE` footer, and how it makes history machine-readable to drive automated version bumps and changelogs. Use when writing a commit message or PR title, deciding the type/scope/bump for a change, setting up or fixing a repo's commit convention, making commits parseable by semantic-release / changelog tooling, validating…

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

# Conventional Commits (a.k.a. semantic commit messages)

A commit convention that makes history **machine-readable**: a parser reads each
message, decides the next semver version, and builds the changelog from it. "Semantic
commits" is the common nickname for the same thing. It's the foundation the release
automation stands on — [`semantic-release-automation`](../semantic-release-automation/SKILL.md)
covers the tooling that consumes these messages.

## The format

```text
<type>[(<scope>)][!]: <description>

<optional body — the "why", wrapped>

<optional footer(s) — BREAKING CHANGE:, Closes #123, Refs: ABC-12>
```

- `type` / `scope`: lowercase **by convention** — the spec is case-*insensitive*,
  except `BREAKING CHANGE`, which MUST be uppercase. `scope` is an optional noun in
  parens for the area touched.
- `!` before the colon **or** a `BREAKING CHANGE:` footer marks a breaking change
  (`BREAKING-CHANGE:` with a hyphen is an accepted synonym).
- **description**: concise; **by convention** imperative mood, lowercase, **no
  trailing period** (Angular/commitlint style — the spec itself mandates none of
  these).
- Blank line before any body/footer.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add stealth-factory/skills/conventional-commits@sha256:70cceee479d6253e

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, 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.
