Message Generation Skill

What problem does it solve?

Writing clear, concise, and conventional Git commit messages is often overlooked but is vital for project history and collaboration. This skill automates the generation and validation of commit messages, ensuring they follow best practices, including subject lines, body content, and footers, saving you time and improving communication.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Subject Generation: Creates concise and informative subject lines based on your changes, adhering to conventions.
• Body Composition: Helps write detailed and contextual commit body content, providing necessary background for reviewers.
• Footer Addition: Adds conventional footers (e.g., Co-authored-by, Fixes #), linking commits to issues or collaborators.
• Message Validation: Checks the generated message against project conventions, ensuring consistency across the team.
• Use Case: A developer has staged changes and needs a good commit message. They use this skill to generate a subject line based on the changes, then compose a detailed body, and finally add a Fixes # footer, ensuring a professional and informative commit message that aids in project tracking.
