PR writing

Full rules: METHODOLOGY.md. Before/after: EXAMPLES.md. Chat shape: RESPONSE.md.

These are requirements, not preferences. A message that breaks one gets rewritten, not shipped.

Operating order

1. Read the diff first

git diff main...HEAD --stat then the real hunks. You cannot state why from a file list.

2. Write the subject (§1)

Under 50 characters. Capitalized. No period. Imperative mood.

Test every subject: "If applied, this commit will ___." If the sentence breaks, the subject is wrong.
