Create, classify, validate, and explain commit messages using Conventional Commits v1.0.0, with repository-aware type, scope, footer, and breaking-change guidance. Use when drafting or reviewing a commit message.

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

Use this skill to draft or review one commit message. Apply Conventional Commits v1.0.0 first, then report repository-specific style concerns separately.

## When to Use

Use this skill when you need to:

- draft a commit message from a change description;
- classify a change by its primary purpose;
- review a proposed commit message;
- explain a type, scope, footer, or breaking-change marker;
- suggest a corrected message without inventing technical details.

Do not use this skill for commit-history intervals, churn metrics, architectural convergence, release automation, or changelog generation. Use `git-history-interval-study` for history analysis and `adr-distillation` for enduring architectural decisions.

## Message Format

```text
<type>[optional scope][!]: <description>

[optional body]

[optional footer(s)]
```

The header requires a type, the `: ` separator, and a non-empty description. A scope is optional and normally names the affected area. A body and footers are optional and follow a blank line.

Examples:

```text
feat(export): add GeoJSON output

fix(auth)!: reject expired sessions

docs: clarify installation steps
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add andrewbrown-usda/aigb-skills-usda/conventional-commits@sha256:329f52fc56a114a0

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