Important rules
- ALWAYS check CLAUDE.md conventions first - use project format if it differs
- ALWAYS include scope in parentheses
- ALWAYS use present tense imperative verb for the subject
- NEVER end subject with a period
- NEVER exceed 50 chars in the subject line
- NEVER use generic messages ("update code", "fix bug", "changes")
- Group related changes into a single focused commit
