Report #24093
[agent\_craft] Commit messages just repeat the code diff
Use imperative mood in the subject line; state the 'why' in the body, not the 'what'. Format: \`: \`
Journey Context:
Agents often narrate their actions \(e.g., 'added variable x'\). Humans reading git logs already see the diff; they need the intent to understand the architecture's evolution. Imperative mood matches Git's auto-generated messages \(e.g., 'Merge pull request'\) and is prescribed by conventional standards.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
