Recent project commits

!

git log --oneline -5 2>/dev/null

Quick start

# 1. Stage changes
git add <files>

# 2. Create commit
git commit -m "type(scope): subject"

Project conventions

  • Scope is required (kebab-case):
    validation
    ,
    auth
    ,
    cookie-service
    ,
    api
  • Additional type beyond standard CC:
    security
    (vulnerability fixes or hardening)
  • HEREDOC for multi-line commits:
git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
feat(validation): add URLValidator with domain whitelist

Implement URLValidator class supporting:
- Domain whitelist enforcement
- Dangerous scheme blocking

Addresses Requirement 31
Part of Task 5.1
EOF
)"

Important rules

  • ALWAYS check CLAUDE.md conventions first - use project format if it differs
  • ALWAYS include scope in parentheses
  • ALWAYS use present tense imperative verb for the subject
  • NEVER end subject with a period
  • NEVER exceed 50 chars in the subject line
  • NEVER use generic messages ("update code", "fix bug", "changes")
  • Group related changes into a single focused commit
