What is the benefit of using the imperative mood in commits?

The imperative mood follows Git's own internal conventions (like 'Merge branch') and creates a more readable, action-oriented project history.

Why does it discourage the use of commit bodies?

To maintain a clean and scannable history; it advocates for title-only commits unless the context is non-obvious and adds genuine value that the title cannot convey.

Does this skill automatically stage files?

Yes, if no changes are currently staged, the skill will run git status and stage all modified files before initiating the commit process.

Does it support Markdown formatting?

Yes, for instances where a commit body is absolutely necessary, the skill supports Markdown formatting for lists, code snippets, and headers.
