Agentfiles Commit Prefixes
Use this skill when writing commit messages for this repository.
Goal
Use a short area prefix that tells the reader what part of the repository changed.
This is not traditional Conventional Commits.
Current prefix map
pi: — changes under agents/pi/dotagents: — changes under agents/dotagents/shared: — changes under agents/agents-shared/vibe: — changes under agents/vibe/zerostack: — changes under agents/zerostack/docs: — documentation changes (only)build: — task management or build related changeschore: — repository-wide or cross-cutting changes, including root files, task scripts
If a change touches one package plus repo-wide docs, choose the prefix that best matches the primary intent.
If no single prefix clearly dominates, use chore:.
Message shape
Format:
<prefix>: <imperative summary>
Examples:
pi: show all bookmarks in jj footerbuild: update stow task documentationshared: review and update canonical AGENTS.md contentdocs: document the commit prefix convention
Keep the subject short, direct, and in present tense. Add a body only when the rationale needs explanation.
Maintenance rule
Update this skill whenever the repository evolves:
- add a new prefix for each new direct
agents/<name>/ package
- revise the
chore: definition when repo-wide files or workflow change
- keep examples in sync with real commit history
