Can I provide a specific focus or scope for the message?

Absolutely. You can prompt Claude with specific instructions like 'Write a commit message focusing on the API updates' to guide the content.

Will the generated message match my project's existing style?

Yes, the skill examines the last 10 commits in your repository's log to understand and replicate your team's specific naming conventions and patterns.

Does this skill automatically commit my changes to git?

No, for safety reasons this skill only generates the message text and displays it in a code block. You can then review, copy, and execute the commit command yourself.

Does it support the Conventional Commits specification?

Yes, it follows the standard ( ): format, supporting types such as feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, and more.

How does Claude know what to include in the commit message?

The skill runs 'git status' and 'git diff' to see exactly what has changed in your code, ensuring the generated message accurately reflects your work.
