commit
ALWAYS use this skill when committing code changes — never commit directly without it. Creates commits following Sentry conventions with proper conventional commit format and issue references. Trigger on any commit, git commit, save changes, or commit message task.
What this skill does
# Sentry Commit Messages Follow these conventions when creating commits for Sentry projects. ## Prerequisites Before committing, always check the current branch: ```bash git branch --show-current ``` **If you're on `main` or `master`, you MUST create a feature branch first** — unless the user explicitly asked to commit to main. Do not ask the user whether to create a branch; just proceed with branch creation. The `create-branch` skill should derive and create a suitable branch name automatically. Use the `create-branch` skill to create the branch. After `create-branch` completes, verify the current branch has changed before proceeding: ```bash git branch --show-current ``` If still on `main` or `master`, stop — do not commit. ## Format ``` <type>(<scope>): <subject> <body> <footer> ``` The header is required. Scope is optional. All lines must stay under 100 characters. ## Commit Types | Type | Purpose | |------|---------| | `feat` | New feature | | `fix` | Bug fix | | `ref` | Refactoring (no behavior change) | | `perf` | Performance improvement | | `docs` | Documentation only | | `test` | Test additions or corrections | | `build` | Build system or dependencies | | `ci` | CI configuration | | `chore` | Maintenance tasks | | `style` | Code formatting (no logic change) | | `meta` | Repository metadata | | `license` | License changes | ## Subject Line Rules - Use imperative, present tense: "Add feature" not "Added feature" - Capitalize the first letter - No period at the end - Maximum 70 characters ## Body Guidelines - Explain **what** and **why**, not how - Use imperative mood and present tense - Include motivation for the change - Contrast with previous behavior when relevant - Use real newlines in commit bodies; never include literal `\n` sequences ## Commit Command Hygiene When creating commits from the CLI, do not embed escaped newlines like `\n` inside `-m` strings. That produces literal backslash characters in the final commit message. Prefer one of these patterns: ```bash git commit -m "type(scope): Subject" \ -m "First paragraph with real line wrapping. Second paragraph. Fixes GH-1234 Co-Authored-By: (the agent's name and attribution byline)" ``` ```bash git commit ``` Use the editor flow when the message needs careful formatting. ## Footer: Issue References Reference issues in the footer using these patterns: ``` Fixes GH-1234 Fixes #1234 Fixes SENTRY-1234 Refs LINEAR-ABC-123 ``` - `Fixes` closes the issue when merged - `Refs` links without closing ## AI-Generated Changes When changes were primarily generated by a coding agent, include the Co-Authored-By attribution in the commit footer. Agents should use their own identity: ``` Co-Authored-By: (the agent's name and attribution byline) ``` Example: `Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4 <[email protected]>` This is the only indicator of AI involvement that should appear in commits. Do not add phrases like "Generated by AI", "Written with Claude", or similar markers in the subject, body, or anywhere else in the commit message. ## Examples ### Simple fix ``` fix(api): Handle null response in user endpoint The user API could return null for deleted accounts, causing a crash in the dashboard. Add null check before accessing user properties. Fixes SENTRY-5678 Co-Authored-By: (the agent's name and attribution byline) ``` ### Feature with scope ``` feat(alerts): Add Slack thread replies for alert updates When an alert is updated or resolved, post a reply to the original Slack thread instead of creating a new message. This keeps related notifications grouped together. Refs GH-1234 ``` ### Refactor ``` ref: Extract common validation logic to shared module Move duplicate validation code from three endpoints into a shared validator class. No behavior change. ``` ### Breaking change ``` feat(api)!: Remove deprecated v1 endpoints Remove all v1 API endpoints that were deprecated in version 23.1. Clients should migrate to v2 endpoints. BREAKING CHANGE: v1 endpoints no longer available Fixes SENTRY-9999 ``` ## Revert Format ``` revert: feat(api): Add new endpoint This reverts commit abc123def456. Reason: Caused performance regression in production. ``` ## Principles - Each commit should be a single, stable change - Commits should be independently reviewable - The repository should be in a working state after each commit ## References - [Sentry Commit Messages](https://develop.sentry.dev/engineering-practices/commit-messages/)

microsoft-graph-gateway
IncludedRoute Microsoft Graph work in this workspace. Use when users want to read or write Outlook mail, calendar events, contacts, OneDrive or SharePoint files, Teams, Planner, To Do, users, groups, directory data, or arbitrary Microsoft Graph endpoints from VS Code. Prefer WorkIQ for common read scenarios. Use Microsoft Graph for write actions and gap-read scenarios that need exact Graph properties, filters, permissions, or endpoints.

wordly-wisdom
IncludedProvides calibrated decision analysis using Charlie Munger-style multiple mental models, inversion, incentive mapping, circle-of-competence checks, misjudgment audits, second-order effects, and forecast updates. Use when the user asks for an oracle take, a hard call, a decision memo, a premortem, an outside view, a red-team, a sanity-check, what am I missing, think this through, or wants a strategy, hire, investment, plan, product, partnership, or major life choice analysed. Avoid for simple factual lookups or time-sensitive legal, medical, or market questions without fresh evidence.
swain-session
IncludedSession management and project status dashboard. Owns the full session lifecycle (start/work/close/resume), focus lane, bookmarks, worktree detection, and tab naming. Also serves as the project status dashboard — shows active epics, progress, actionable next steps, blocked items, tasks, GitHub issues, and recommendations. Worktree creation is deferred to swain-do task dispatch (SPEC-195). Triggers on: 'session', 'status', 'what's next', 'dashboard', 'overview', 'where are we', 'what should I work on', 'show me priorities', 'bookmark', 'focus on', 'session info'.
