description	Stage and commit current changes for Button2 — checks for needed CHANGELOG/README/CLAUDE.md updates, creates a branch if on master, writes a commit message, and commits

Commit the current working changes. Follow these steps:

Step 1: Understand what changed

Run git diff --stat and git status to see what files are modified or untracked. Read the diffs for any changed source files (src/, test/, examples/) to understand the nature of the changes.

Step 2: Branch check

Run git branch --show-current. If on master or main:

• Infer a short branch name from the changes (e.g. fix/was-pressed-for, feat/new-callback, docs/readme-update)
• Run git checkout -b <branch-name>
• Tell the user which branch was created

Step 3: Check CHANGELOG

If any source files (src/, test/, examples/) changed, check whether CHANGELOG.md's ## Unreleased section already documents those changes. If not, add the missing entries following the established format:

• **Fixed (Issue #N)**: ... for bug fixes
• **Added**: ... for new API or features
• **Changed**: ... for behavioral changes
• **Internal**: ... for refactors, test additions, infra with no user-visible effect

Skip changelog update for whitespace-only, comment, or docs-only changes.

Step 4: Check README

If public API changed (new/removed/renamed functions in src/Button2.h), check whether README.md reflects the change. If not, update the relevant section. Skip for internal or test-only changes.

Step 5: Check CLAUDE.md

If a non-obvious pattern, gotcha, or invariant was introduced that future sessions should know about, add a concise note to CLAUDE.md. Do not add obvious or one-off information.

Step 6: Stage and commit

Stage all relevant files:

git add <changed source files> CHANGELOG.md  # plus README.md / CLAUDE.md if updated

Write a conventional commit message:

• fix: for bug fixes
• feat: for new features
• test: for test-only changes
• docs: for documentation only
• chore: for tooling, config, infra

Keep the subject line under 72 characters. Add a short body if the why isn't obvious from the subject.

Run git commit -m "..." and confirm success.
