# Commit Message Generator
Generate a structured git commit message based on current changes and repository patterns.
## When to Activate
- User asks for help with commit message
- User wants to generate a commit message
- User needs conventional commit formatting
- User asks "what should my commit say"
## Quick Process
1. **Gather Git Information**:
- Run `git status` to see staged and unstaged changes
- Run `git diff --cached` to get detailed staged changes
- Run `git diff` to get unstaged changes (if any)
- Run `git log --oneline -10` to understand repository commit patterns
2. **Parse Input**: Extract any scope or focus area from user's request
3. **Generate Message**: Create commit message following conventional format:
- Concise summary line (≤100 characters)
- Detailed explanation of WHAT and WHY (1-3 paragraphs)
- Claude Code signature
## Output Format
Generate commit message in this format:
```
<type>(<scope>): <summary>
<body explaining WHAT changed and WHY>
🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code)
```
**Types**: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test, chore, perf, ci, build
## Examples
```
"Generate a commit message"
"What should my commit say for these auth changes"
"Write commit message focusing on the API updates"
"Create commit for database migration"
```
## Delegation
Invokes the **commit-message-generator** agent with:
- staged_changes: git diff --cached output
- unstaged_changes: git diff output (for context)
- commit_history: recent git log for pattern matching
- scope: optional focus area from user
## Safety
- Never executes `git commit` - only generates message text
- Shows message in code block for easy copying
- Requires git repository with changes
