Toolditor Readable Commits

Overview

Build a clean commit stack without changing implementation behavior. Favor explicit file-by-file staging, coherent scope boundaries, and Korean commit messages that pass .husky/commit-msg.

Non-Negotiable Rules

1. Do not change code logic just to reorganize commits.
2. Do not use destructive git commands (reset --hard, checkout --, stash manipulation) unless explicitly requested.
3. Respect commit convention:

• header: [type] message (Korean message)
• body: optional flat bullet list (- 설명)

4. Keep commit scopes independent so each commit is reviewable and revertable.
5. Verify commit list after every 1-2 commits, not only at the end.
6. Run npm run check before starting split work; if it fails, fix lint/type errors first.
7. Do not bypass verification for delivery: never use --no-verify for pushes.
8. Do not isolate docs into docs-only commits when they explain code changes in the same stack; attach docs to the related commit.

Workflow

0. Run preflight checks first.

• npm run check
• If errors exist, fix them before commit splitting.

1. Inspect current state.

• git status --short --branch
• git diff --name-only
• git diff --cached --name-only
• git log --oneline --decorate -n 20
• sed -n '1,220p' .husky/commit-msg
• sed -n '1,240p' commitlint.config.ts

2. Create a commit split map before committing.

• Group by behavior boundary, not by file extension.
• Separate refactor/feature/fix/test/docs where possible.
• Put shared foundations first.
• If docs explain a specific code change, place docs in that same commit instead of a standalone docs commit.

3. Commit per group using explicit staging.

• git add <file1> <file2> ...
• git diff --cached --name-only
• git diff --cached
• git commit with Korean [type] message

4. Re-check stack quality continuously.

• git status --short
• git log --oneline --decorate -n 10
• Ensure no unrelated file leaked into commit.

5. Run verification once stack is complete.

• For TypeScript/code changes: run project-required checks (typically npx tsc --noEmit, npm test).
• If pre-commit tools rewrite files, include only logical rewrites in the same commit scope.
• Do not rely on --no-verify as a delivery path.

Commit Message Contract

Use this exact structure:

[type] 메시지

- 설명 (optional, multiple allowed)

Allowed type values in this repo:

• feat, fix, design, style, refactor, comment, docs, test, chore, rename, remove, ci, build, revert

Avoid:

• subject ending with .
• nested bullets in body
• mixed language headers that violate team convention
