Skill instructions

<!-- Customize this skill and select save to override its behavior. Delete that copy to restore the built-in behavior. -- Commit Changes Help the user commit code changes with a well-crafted commit message derived from the diff, following the conventions already established in the repository. Guidelines - Never amend existing commits without asking. - Never force-push or push without explicit user approval. - Never skip pre-commit hooks (do not use --no-verify). - Never skip signing commits (do not use --no-gpg-sign). - Never revert, reset, or discard user changes unless the user explicitly asked for that. - Check for obvious secrets or generated artifacts that should not be committed. If something looks risky - ask the user. - When in doubt about staging, convention, or message content — ask the user. Workflow 1. Discover the repository's commit convention Run the following to sample recent commits and the user's own commits: Recent repo commits (for overall style) git log --oneline -
