Pull request overview
This PR updates the commit-message-generation prompt to remove “code reviewer” framing so the model focuses strictly on producing Conventional Commits-compliant commit messages.
Changes:
- Rewrites the opening of
copilot-chat-commit-promptto explicitly define the assistant as a “commit message generator”. - Adds stronger constraint language (“ONLY task”) to prevent unintended code review behavior.
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
