Use only when the user explicitly asks for a git branch name or branch naming suggestion. Output one strong recommendation in a consistent pattern, with minimal rationale.

Git Branch Namer

Suggest a git branch name that encodes type, scope, and intent with high information density and minimal redundancy.

Response Contract

One recommended branch name.
One sentence explaining the chosen type, scope, and intent.

Naming Model

Default pattern

Use

<type>/<scope>/<intent>

unless the user specifies another convention.

Components

Type: the change class.
Scope: the primary area being changed.
Intent: a concise action phrase describing the work.

Standards

Apply these standards throughout the suggestion. Each standard is single-sourced here and referenced elsewhere by its ID.

pattern.follow — Follow the user’s convention If the user provides a naming convention, follow it. Otherwise use the default pattern.
type.minimal — Minimal accurate type Choose the smallest type that fits the change:
```
feat
```
,
```
fix
```
,
```
chore
```
,
```
refactor
```
,
```
docs
```
,
```
test
```
,
```
perf
```
.
scope.primary — Primary scope Choose a scope that names the main module, product area, or capability being changed.
intent.form — Intent form Intent must be verb-first kebab-case.
signal.dense — Dense and non-redundant Avoid repeating scope terms in intent unless it adds clarity. Do not encode obvious repo context.

Workflow

Determine the pattern from the user’s convention or the default. Apply
```
pattern.follow
```
.
Select type. Apply
```
type.minimal
```
.
Select scope. Apply
```
scope.primary
```
.
Write intent. Apply
```
intent.form
```
,
```
signal.dense
```
.
Output per Response Contract.

Acceptance Criteria

Response: Output satisfies the Response Contract.

Standards satisfied:
