With --body, each suggestion includes a detailed explanation:

  1. feat(auth): add JWT refresh token rotation [PROJ-123]
     Implement refresh token rotation to reduce the risk of token theft.
     Each refresh invalidates the previous token and issues a new pair.

Features

• Zero config — works out of the box if you have Claude Code installed
• Commit type selector — interactive menu to pick feat, fix, refactor… or let AI decide
• Ticket / issue linking — auto-detects Jira/Linear/GitHub issue numbers from your branch name, appends [PROJ-123] to the message
• Commit body generation — --body generates a detailed why/what paragraph below the subject line
• Scope enforcement — --scope auth forces (auth) in every suggestion
• Breaking change flag — --breaking appends ! to the commit type (feat!:, feat(api)!:)
• Multiple suggestions — pick the best one, or regenerate
• Conventional Commits — feat, fix, docs, refactor, chore, and more
• Gitmoji support — --emoji flag adds relevant emojis
• Multi-language — write commit messages in any language
• Style matching — reads recent commits to match your project's style
• Auto-commit mode — --yes for scripting and hooks
• Dry-run mode — preview without committing
• Clipboard copy — --copy sends the message to your clipboard
• Configurable model — Haiku (fast/cheap), Sonnet, or Opus
