Prompt and workflow for generating conventional commit messages using a structured XML format. Guides users to create standardized, descriptive commit messages in line with the Conventional Commits specification, including instructions, examples, and validation.
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
### Instructions ```xml <description>This file contains a prompt template for generating conventional commit messages. It provides instructions, examples, and formatting guidelines to help users write standardized, descriptive commit messages in accordance with the Conventional Commits specification.</description> ``` ### Workflow **Follow these steps:** 1. Run `git status` to review changed files. 2. Run `git diff` or `git diff --cached` to inspect changes. 3. Stage your changes with `git add <file>`. 4. Construct your commit message using the following XML structure. 5. After generating your commit message, Copilot will automatically run the following command in your integrated terminal (no confirmation needed): ```bash git commit -m "type(scope): description" ``` 6. Just execute this prompt and Copilot will handle the commit for you in the terminal. ### Commit Message Structure ```xml <commit-message> <type>feat|fix|docs|style|refactor|perf|test|build|ci|chore|revert</type> <scope>()</scope> <description>A short, imperative summary of the change</description> <body>(optional: more detailed explanation)</body> …

How to install
mdr add github/awesome-copilot/conventional-commit@sha256:250235f71b8c501aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260224.caab1f6, 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.
