Claude Command: Flow Commit

This command helps you create well-formatted commits with conventional commit messages and emoji.

Usage

To review the pre-commit issues and create a commit, just type:

/flow:commit

Or with hinting about a specific topic:

/flow:commit VoiceSelector refactor

Context

Current git status: !git status --short || true
Current git diff (staged and unstaged changes): !git diff HEAD || true
Current branch: !git branch --show-current || true
Latest commits: !git log --oneline -20 || true
Pre-commit hook results from git: !git hook run pre-commit || true
User-provided topic (can be empty): $ARGUMENTS

What This Command Does

Note: This is a custom command. When being executed, Claude will see a "/flow:commit is running" message indicating the command is being processed and your thinking should proceed as below.

If this is not a git repository, initiate one with git init and use main branch as default.
Check which files are staged from git status output; if none are staged, automatically add all modified and new files with git add.
Performs a git diff to understand what changes are being committed
Analyzes the diff to determine if multiple distinct logical changes are present
If multiple distinct changes are detected, break the commit into multiple smaller commits
For each commit (or the single commit if not split), create a commit message using emoji conventional commit format
Analyze the pre-commit hook output; if there are formatting issues, try to fix them with project-standard formatting tools, often just format.
For other issues, like linting or test failures, try to fix them yourself.
Run the git hook again after any changes.
If there are complex issues that are hard to fix then ask the user how to proceed: fix the issues, commit with --no-verify or continue other work.

Best Practices for Commits

Verify before committing: Ensure code is linted, builds correctly, and documentation is updated
Atomic commits: Each commit should contain related changes that serve a single purpose
Split large changes: If changes touch multiple concerns, split them into separate commits
Conventional commit format: Use the format <type>: <description> where type is one of:
- feat: A new feature
- fix: A bug fix
- docs: Documentation changes
- style: Code style changes (formatting, etc)
- refactor: Code changes that neither fix bugs nor add features
- perf: Performance improvements
- test: Adding or fixing tests
- chore: Changes to the build process, tools, etc.
Present tense, imperative mood: Write commit messages as commands (e.g., "add feature" not "added feature")
Concise first line: Keep the first line under 72 characters
Only most important details: make it clear what the commit touches (e.g. auth flow or /payments endpoint) but clarify the specifics only on a very high level, use brackets if helpful
Emoji: Each commit type is paired with an appropriate emoji:
- ✨ feat: New feature
- 🐛 fix: Bug fix

Guidelines for Splitting Commits

When analyzing the diff, consider splitting commits based on these criteria:

Different concerns: Changes to unrelated parts of the codebase
Different types of changes: Mixing features, fixes, refactoring, etc.
File patterns: Changes to different types of files (e.g., source code vs documentation)
Logical grouping: Changes that would be easier to understand or review separately
Size: Very large changes that would be clearer if broken down

If unclear, ask the user how to proceed.

Examples

Good commit messages:

✨ feat: add user authentication system
🐛 fix: resolve memory leak in rendering process
📝 docs: update API documentation with /user/... endpoints
♻️ refactor: simplify error handling logic in VoiceSelector
🚨 fix: resolve linter warnings in component files
🧑‍💻 chore: use just for developer tooling
👔 feat: implement business logic for transaction validation
🩹 fix: address minor styling inconsistency in header
🚑️ fix: patch critical security vulnerability in auth flow
🎨 style: reorganize VoiceSelector component for better readability
🔥 fix: remove deprecated legacy code in /v1/payment
🦺 feat: add input validation for user registration form
💚 fix: failing CI pipeline tests (CSS linting settings mismatch)
📈 feat: implement analytics tracking for user engagement
🔒️ fix: strengthen authentication password requirements (16 chars)
♿️ feat: improve login form accessibility for screen readers

Example of splitting commits:

First commit: ✨ feat: add new solc version type definitions
Second commit: 📝 docs: update documentation for new solc versions
Third commit: 🔧 chore: update package.json dependencies
Fourth commit: 🏷️ feat: add type definitions for /user endpoints
Fifth commit: 🧵 feat: improve concurrency handling in worker threads
Sixth commit: 🚨 fix: resolve linting issues in new solc code
Seventh commit: ✅ test: add unit tests for new solc version features
Eighth commit: 🔒️ fix: update dependencies with security vulnerabilities

Important Notes

‼️ If no git repository exists, the command will initialize one with main as the default branch. ‼️ If specific files are already staged, the command will only commit those files. ‼️ If no files are staged, it will automatically stage all modified and new files. ‼️ The commit message will be constructed based on the changes detected, but using user-provided hints ‼️ Before committing, the command will review the diff to identify if multiple commits would be more appropriate. ‼️ If suggesting multiple commits, it will help you stage and commit the changes separately. ‼️ Always reviews the commit diff to ensure the message matches the changes. ‼️ This command can commit with --no-verify but ONLY if the user explicitly agreed to it when asked.
