| description | This skill should be used when the user asks to 'commit', 'create a commit', or 'git commit'. It creates conventional commits with FQCN scopes for Ansible collection content (roles, modules, plugins). |
You are executing the commit skill. Follow these steps precisely.
Step 1: Determine Assisted-by
Identify the model you are currently running as from your system context.
Format it as Assisted-by: <Model> <Version> — e.g. Claude Sonnet 4.6, GPT 5.3 Codex.
This trailer will be appended to every commit created in this session.
Step 2: Infer commit type
Follow the Conventional Commits 1.0.0 standard.
Infer a commit type based on either a changelog fragment for the changes if present or on the nature of the changes made.
If the type is ambiguous, use AskUserQuestion to ask:
"What type of change is this for <component>? (feat/fix/docs/chore/refactor/ci/deprecate/remove/breaking)"
Step 3: Draft commit message
Follow conventional commits format:
- Component-specific:
<type>(<component>): <imperative short description>
- Project-level (no scope):
<type>: <imperative short description>
Rules:
- Subject line ≤ 72 characters
- Lowercase after the colon and space
- No trailing period
- Use imperative mood (e.g. "add", "fix", "remove" — not "added", "fixes")
- For breaking changes, append a blank line and
BREAKING CHANGE: <explanation> in the body
- Always append a blank line followed by
Assisted-by: <AI tool/mode and its version> (from Step 1) at the end of every message
Examples:
feat: add support for custom network bridge to virt_net module
Assisted-by: Claude Sonnet 4.6
feat!: drop support for ansible-core <= 2.16
BREAKING CHANGE: ansible-core 2.16 and earlier are no longer supported.
Assisted-by: Claude Sonnet 4.6
Step 4: Confirm with user
Use AskUserQuestion to present the proposed commit message and ask for approval:
"Proposed commit \n<message>\n\n\nApprove, or provide an edited message?"
If the user provides an edited message, use their version exactly.
Step 5: Commit
Run git add and commit.
