commit-convention

A Git commit convention for the Lorekeeper project. It defines the author identity, ticket tag, commit type, and title format required for each commit.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for configuring local Git identity and writing valid commit titles such as feature, fix, documentation, test, or housekeeping commits.
Why use it?
It makes commits consistent and links project work to tickets while distinguishing development roles.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

commit-convention scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 93 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Commit Convention

All commits to the Lorekeeper repo are enforced by .git/hooks/commit-msg (installed via scripts/lorekeeper-setup.sh).


Author Identity

Role user.name user.email
PM (Akane) Akane (PM) [email protected]
Dev Dev [email protected]
Engineer (Diana) Diana [email protected]

Set locally in the repo (not globally, to avoid polluting other projects):

# PM
git config --local user.name "Akane (PM)"
git config --local user.email "[email protected]"

# Dev
git config --local user.name "Dev"
git config --local user.email "[email protected]"

# Diana
git config --local user.name "Diana"
git config --local user.email "[email protected]"

Commit Title Format

[LKPR-N] type: short imperative title

Ticket Tags

Tag When to use
[LKPR-N] Work tied to a specific ticket (feature, fix, refactor, test)
[LKPR-0] Housekeeping with no ticket — chore, backlog edits, moving tickets, changing status, updating skills, docs-only

Types

feat, fix, docs, refactor, test, chore, perf


Examples

[LKPR-6] feat: add iterative search with relevance cutoff
[LKPR-19] fix: enable FK constraints via PRAGMA foreign_keys=ON
[LKPR-0] chore: add LKPR-21 entity-resolution backlog ticket
[LKPR-0] docs: update README scoring formula
[LKPR-0] chore: move LKPR-15 to done/

Merge Commits

Merge commits (branch → main) are exempt from the hook — detected by the presence of MERGE_HEAD or a title starting with Merge branch.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
