Write commit messages and PR descriptions that lead with intent (why, not what), using Conventional Commits type prefixes and Refs: trailers linking to docs/{facts,decisions,guardrails,skills}/ artifacts. Use when the user wants to commit changes with attribution, or generate a PR description, e.g. "commit this with attribution", "write a PR description for this branch".

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

Write commit messages and PR descriptions that capture *why* a change was made, not just what changed, and keep them traceable to the knowledge artifacts (`docs/{facts,decisions,guardrails,skills}/`) they implement.

This skill only runs when explicitly invoked. Never apply its conventions to a plain `git commit` unless asked.

## Writing a commit message

1. Inspect the staged diff with `git diff --staged`.
2. Propose candidate knowledge artifacts based on what the diff touches, then confirm the list with the user before committing — never guess silently; they may add, remove, or reject any.
3. Draft the message:
   - Summary line: `type: summary`, where `type` is one of `feat`, `fix`, `docs`, `style`, `refactor`, `perf`, `test`, `build`, `ci`, `chore`.
   - Blank line.
   - A body paragraph explaining the intent — not merely what changed.
   - Blank line.
   - One `Refs: <repo-relative-path>` git trailer per confirmed artifact (e.g. `Refs: docs/decisions/0003-commit-trailer-traceability.md`). Never use an issue number or a prose mention in place of this trailer.

## Writing a PR description

1. Determine the branch's base (e.g. `main`) and run `git log <base>..HEAD`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vivantel/kms/attribute@sha256:fb0017aa23f2af74

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260829.16c003a, 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.
