engram-commit-hygiene

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• Creating commits
• Creating or naming branches
• Reviewing commit history in a PR
• Cleaning up staged changes

Critical Rules

1. Commit messages MUST follow Conventional Commits — enforced by GitHub ruleset, rejected on push if invalid
2. Branch names MUST follow type/description format — enforced by GitHub ruleset, rejected on push if invalid
3. Keep one logical change per commit
4. Message should explain why, not only what
5. NEVER include Co-Authored-By trailers
6. NEVER commit generated/temp/local files
