What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Suggests conventional commit messages by analyzing staged, unstaged, and untracked git changes — read-only, never commits. Use when a commit message suggestion is needed without actually committing. Best run in the conversation where the changes were implemented, so the message body captures the why.

Commit Message Suggester

Generate a conventional commit message by analyzing all local git changes (staged, unstaged, and untracked) without performing any commit.

Workflow

1. Gather Change Context

Read $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/skills/commit/references/gather-changes.md and follow the procedure (multi-repo detection + git commands).

2. Analyze Changes and Generate Conventional Commit Message

Read $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/skills/commit-message/references/conventional-commit-format.md and follow its instructions to analyze the gathered changes and generate a conventional commit message.

3. Present the Message

Output the suggested commit message in a copyable code block. Do NOT run git commit. If the changes span multiple concerns, present each message separately with instructions on which files to stage for each.

In a multi-repo workspace, present each repo's commit message under a heading with the repo directory name (e.g., ## isa-server). If a repo's changes span multiple concerns, suggest separate commits within that repo's section. If only one repo has changes, still label it with the repo name for clarity.

Important

Never commit, stage, or modify any files
This skill is read-only — it only analyzes and suggests

Recommend the next step based on readiness:

If the user wants to commit now → /optimus:commit to commit (and optionally push)
If the feature is ready → commit first (/optimus:commit), then /optimus:pr to create a pull request — pr never commits working-tree changes

Tell the user the closing tip per $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/references/skill-handoff.md "Closing tip wording" — use Variant A with <continuation-skill(s)> = `/optimus:commit` or `/optimus:pr` and <non-continuation-examples> = /optimus:code-review, /optimus:unit-test, etc.
