name: lcp-git-commit description: When asked to commit, write clear git commit messages (50/72, present tense, subsystem prefixes like go-lcpd:). metadata: short-description: Craft git commit messages for this repo
Use this skill only when the user explicitly asks you to create commits.
Commit message style
Follow this structure:
- First line: short summary (aim for 50 chars or less).
- Blank line.
- Body (optional): wrap at ~72 columns; explain intent and rationale.
Guidelines:
- Use present tense (example: “Fix …”, not “Fixed …”).
- Include a subsystem/package prefix when it improves scanability:
- Examples:
go-lcpd: …,apps/openai-serve: …,docs: …,docs/protocol: … - For broad changes, combine prefixes with
+(example:go-lcpd+docs: …).
- Examples:
- Prefer small, contained commits that build independently to support
git bisect. - Bullets are fine in the body; keep them readable and wrapped.
When asked to commit
- Confirm which files belong in the commit (avoid committing local/dev artifacts like
go.work.sum). - Craft a commit message following the style above.
- Create the commit(s) with clear boundaries (one topic per commit when practical).
