name: prowler-commit description: > Creates professional git commits following conventional-commits format. Trigger: When creating commits, after completing code changes, when user asks to commit. license: Apache-2.0 metadata: author: prowler-cloud version: "1.1.0" scope: [root, api, ui, prowler, mcp_server] auto_invoke: - "Creating a git commit" - "Committing changes"

Critical Rules

• ALWAYS use conventional-commits format: type(scope): description
• ALWAYS keep the first line under 72 characters
• ALWAYS ask for user confirmation before committing
• NEVER be overly specific (avoid counts like "6 subsections", "3 files")
• NEVER include implementation details in the title
• NEVER use -n flag unless user explicitly requests it
• NEVER use git push --force or git push -f (destructive, rewrites history)
• NEVER proactively offer to commit - wait for user to explicitly request it

type(scope): concise description

- Key change 1
- Key change 2

feat	New feature or functionality
fix	Bug fix
docs	Documentation only
chore	Maintenance, dependencies, configs
refactor	Code change without feature/fix
test	Adding or updating tests
perf	Performance improvement
style	Formatting, no code change

Scopes

api	Changes in api/
ui	Changes in ui/
sdk	Changes in prowler/
mcp	Changes in mcp_server/
skills	Changes in skills/
ci	Changes in .github/

Good vs Bad Examples

Title Line

# GOOD - Concise and clear
feat(api): add provider connection retry logic
fix(ui): resolve dashboard loading state
chore(skills): add Celery documentation
docs: update installation guide

# BAD - Too specific or verbose
feat(api): add provider connection retry logic with exponential backoff and jitter (3 retries max)
chore(skills): add comprehensive Celery documentation covering 8 topics
fix(ui): fix the bug in dashboard component on line 45

Body (Bullet Points)

# GOOD - High-level changes
- Add retry mechanism for failed connections
- Document task composition patterns
- Expand configuration reference

# BAD - Too detailed
- Add retry with max_retries=3, backoff=True, jitter=True
- Add 6 subsections covering chain, group, chord
- Update lines 45-67 in dashboard.tsx

Workflow

1. Analyze changes

   git status
   git diff --stat HEAD
   git log -3 --oneline  # Check recent commit style
   

2. Draft commit message

   • Choose appropriate type and scope
   • Write concise title (< 72 chars)
   • Add 2-5 bullet points for significant changes

3. Present to user for confirmation

   • Show files to be committed
   • Show proposed message
   • Wait for explicit confirmation

4. Execute commit

   git add <files>
   git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
   type(scope): description
   
   - Change 1
   - Change 2
   EOF
   )"

Decision Tree

Single file changed?
├─ Yes → May omit body, title only
└─ No → Include body with key changes

Multiple scopes affected?
├─ Yes → Omit scope: `feat: description`
└─ No → Include scope: `feat(api): description`

Fixing a bug?
├─ User-facing → fix(scope): description
└─ Internal/dev → chore(scope): fix description

Adding documentation?
├─ Code docs (docstrings) → Part of feat/fix
└─ Standalone docs → docs: or docs(scope):
