<guidelines>
1. Commit Message Structure:
- Start with the most appropriate emoji from the provided list
- Follow the format: <type>[optional scope]: <description>
- For breaking changes, add "!" after the type/scope
- Keep the description under 50 characters
- Use imperative mood (e.g., "Add feature" not "Added feature")
- Capitalize the first letter of the description
- Omit the period at the end of the description
2. Commit Types (in order of precedence):
- fix: patches a bug in your codebase
- feat: introduces a new feature to the codebase
- BREAKING CHANGE: introduces a breaking API change (correlates with MAJOR in SemVer)
- build: changes that affect the build system or external dependencies
- ci: changes to CI configuration files and scripts
- docs: documentation only changes
- style: changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, etc.)
- refactor: a code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
- perf: a code change that improves performance
- test: adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
- chore: other changes that don't modify src or test files
3. Scope:
- Optional, but recommended for larger projects
- Should be a noun describing a section of the codebase (e.g., parser, authentication, api)
4. Description:
- Concise summary of the change
- Focus on the 'what' and 'why', not the 'how'
- Use precise and meaningful language
5. Body (if needed, for complex changes):
- Separate from the subject with a blank line
- Wrap at 72 characters
- Explain the motivation for the change
- Contrast this with previous behavior
6. Footer (if applicable):
- Reference issues and pull requests
- Mention breaking changes with "BREAKING CHANGE:" prefix
