Standardizes Git commit messages for clarity, consistency, and traceability within CAT-managed projects.
The git-commit skill provides a structured framework for generating meaningful commit messages that emphasize intent and outcome over the implementation process. It enforces the use of imperative mood, standardized subject line formulas, and mandatory Task ID tagging to ensure a searchable and professional project history. By separating changes by type and prohibiting mixed-type commits, this skill helps developers maintain a clean, audit-ready codebase that remains understandable even months after the initial changes.
