Description
Format commit messages using the Conventional Commits specification. Use when creating commits, writing commit messages, or when the user mentions commits, git commits, or commit messages. Ensures commits follow the standard format for automated tooling, changelog generation, and semantic versioning.
Usage Guidance
This appears safe to install for commit-message help. Be aware it may activate during broad discussions about commits, so users who want tighter behavior may prefer narrowing the trigger wording to explicit requests to draft, edit, validate, or format commit messages.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: conventional-commits
Version: 1.0.1
The skill bundle is benign. It consists of a standard metadata file and a markdown document (`SKILL.md`) that solely provides instructions and examples for formatting commit messages according to the Conventional Commits specification. There is no executable code, no external network calls, no file system access, and no evidence of prompt injection attempts designed to manipulate the agent into performing malicious actions, data exfiltration, or unauthorized operations. The content is purely informational and aligns with its stated purpose.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is commit-message formatting, and the artifact content is instructional guidance and examples for Conventional Commits rather than executable behavior.
Instruction Scope
The activation language is broad around commits and commit messages, which could make the skill engage in general git-commit discussions, but the instructions remain limited to formatting guidance and do not request privileged actions.
Install Mechanism
No package install steps, scripts, hooks, or executable setup behavior are indicated in the supplied evidence.
Credentials
The skill does not ask for filesystem, network, credential, profile, or account access; its capabilities are proportionate to documentation-style commit-message help.
Persistence & Privilege
No persistence mechanism, background worker, privilege escalation, or automatic mutation behavior is present in the artifact evidence.

- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
