commit-all

name	commit-all
description	Use this skill when the user asks to "commit all", "commit everything", or wants all outstanding changes committed. Groups unrelated changes into separate, well-described commits instead of one catch-all commit.

Commit All

Goal

Commit every outstanding change in the working tree -- but group unrelated changes into separate, informative commits so the git history stays useful.

Workflow

1. Survey all changes. Run git status and git diff (staged + unstaged) to see the full picture. Include untracked files.
2. Identify logical groups. Cluster files by the change they belong to. A "group" is a set of files that were modified for the same reason (e.g. a bug fix, a new feature, a config tweak, a dependency update). Use file paths, diff content, and your understanding of the codebase to decide.
3. Order commits. Infra/config/dependency changes first, then library/core changes, then feature/UI changes, then docs/polish.
4. For each group, create one commit:
   • Stage only the files belonging to that group (git add <file> ...). Never use git add -A or git add ..
   • Write a concise, informative commit message that describes what changed and why. Follow the repo's existing commit style (check git log --oneline -10).
   • Do not lump unrelated changes together just because they're small.
5. Verify. After all commits, run git status to confirm the tree is clean. Run git log --oneline -n <N> (where N = number of commits created) to show the user what was committed.

Commit Message Rules

• Keep the subject line under 72 characters.
• Use imperative mood ("add", "fix", "update", not "added", "fixes").
• If a change is trivial (whitespace, typo, formatting), it's fine to batch those into one commit labeled accordingly.
• End every commit message with the Co-Authored-By trailer.

Hard Rules

• Never combine unrelated changes in one commit.
• Never skip or discard changes -- everything gets committed.
• Never use git add -A or git add ..
• Do not push. Only commit locally.
• Do not commit files that look like they contain secrets (.env, credentials, tokens). Warn the user about those instead.
