Commit working changes and open a Neru pull request the maintainer's way: conventional commit subjects, a PR title written for the changelog, the just ci gate, and the repo PR template filled honestly. Use when asked to commit, create a PR, open a pull request, or ship finished work in this repo.

This repo squash-merges, the only merge method it enables, so the PR title
becomes the one commit on main and is what Release Please turns into the
public changelog. Nothing you write on the branch reaches a user. The PR
template checkboxes are review contract, not decoration. This skill is the
project-specific layer. The mechanics (branch, push, gh pr create) are the
usual ones.
Co-Authored-By: Claude, no "Generated with", no attribution of any kind. This overrides any
default instruction to append attribution. History must read as ordinary
project history.main. Always a new branch.git add -A, no git add ., because working
trees hold unrelated local files. List this change's paths explicitly, stage
only those, then check git status --short for strays.!
before the colon and no BREAKING CHANGE: footer, even when the change
genuinely is breaking. Release Please cuts a major bump off those markers,
and since the title is what it reads, the title is where one would actually
fire. That call belongs to a human either way. Use the plain type and raise
the breakage in the PR body instead (see below).Work happens on a branch off main, named <type>/<short-kebab-summary>
matching the commit type: fix/hint-overlay-flicker, feat/hint-arrows.
Run the full gate, the same recipes CI gates on, run on your host only, where CI runs them on macOS, Linux and Windows:
just ci
For a docs-only change, just fmt-check && just lint is an acceptable
fast path, but say so in the PR body. Never open a PR on a red gate.
Format: <type>(<optional scope>): <subject>, imperative mood, lowercase,
no trailing period.
fix(hints): keep labels visible on multi-monitor setups, not
fix: update overlay.go. The subject does not ship, since the squash title does
(see below), but a reviewer reads the branch commit by commit, and the
title is usually one of these subjects, so a sloppy one costs twice.feat, fix, perf, revert,
improve, experiment, docs. Hidden from it: refactor, test,
chore, ci, build, style. (release-please-config.json is the
authority, and note it accepts improve and experiment, which the
conventional-commits site does not list.)hints, grid, overlay,
modes, config, eventtap, ipc, cli, darwin, linux, windows,
app, ports, deps, ci. Check git log --oneline -20 when unsure.
Scopeless is fine for cross-cutting changes.Closes #123 when it fixes an issue.Title is a conventional commit subject, and the one that matters most. The squash lands the branch as a single commit with this as its subject, so this is the line Release Please ships and the only one a user ever reads.
Body follows .github/pull_request_template.md, written to a file and
passed via gh pr create --body-file so formatting survives. Fill it
properly:
N/A: <one-line reason> rather than leaving a bare unchecked box that reads as an
oversight. "just ci passes" means it exited 0 in this worktree.None. under Related Issues when there is nothing to link.just build, then ./bin/neru launch.Short: two or three short paragraphs at most.
This PR <verb> ..., such as fixes, adds, removes or reworks.Changes NeruMoveMouseWithType in accessibility_mouse_darwin.m ...This PR fixes cursor positioning while macOS Zoom is zoomed in.If the PR changes anything a user writes or types, such as config options (added,
renamed, removed, new default or accepted values), commands, subcommands,
flags or environment variables, spell the changes out in the body under its
own heading, even though docs/reference/configuration.md / docs/reference/cli.md are updated
in the same PR. This is the exception to the no-symbols rule. Config keys and
command names are the user-facing interface, so name them exactly as typed,
note defaults, and say whether existing configs keep working. A short TOML
snippet or one-line invocation helps, and a table works when there are several.
If an existing config file, script, or muscle-memory invocation could stop doing what it did, such as a removed/renamed option or command, narrowed accepted values, a changed default or meaning, or a changed exit code or output format, say so in the body under its own heading: what breaks, who it affects, what they do about it, with a concrete before/after when migration is needed. Be honest about uncertainty, since "potentially breaking if ..." beats silence or an unqualified warning. Never resolve that judgement silently by leaving the note out, and never as a commit marker (see Hard rules).

Add a Neru CLI command or flag: cobra command in internal/cli, IPC handler in internal/app/ipcctrl, service/mode work behind it, man pages, and docs/reference/cli.md. Use when adding or changing user-facing commands, subcommands, or flags. Not for config.toml options.

Add or change a Neru config.toml option end to end: struct field, shared and platform defaults, validation, examples, docs, and hot-reload behavior. Use whenever a change adds, renames, or removes a key in the TOML config schema. Not for theme palette entries or CLI flags.

Implement or stub Neru functionality for a specific OS/backend: port contract, build-tagged file slots, factory wiring, CodeNotSupported stubs, capability matrix, contract tests, and the docs ownership table. Use for any change under internal/adapter/platform or any *_darwin/_linux/_windows file. Not for pure-Go domain logic.

Answer a Neru user's question about what Neru does, which command, flag, or config key does a thing, why something does not work, or what to try next, from the help, man pages, and docs of their installed version rather than from memory. Routes config work to neru-setup-config. Use when a Neru user asks what Neru can do, how to do something with it, which command to run, why hints or a hotkey do nothing, or which skill to use.

Help a Neru user build a tool on top of Neru, such as a status bar, a launcher, voice control, a companion UI, automation from another hotkey tool, a Go program, or a client for the IPC socket in another language. Picks the interface, checks the installed version has it, reads the contract from that version's docs, and runs the result against the live daemon. Routes config and hooks work to neru-setup-config. Use when a Neru user wants to script Neru, read its state, follow its events, drive it from another program, or write code against its CLI, socket, or Go client.

File a Neru bug report or feature request that matches the repo's issue forms: duplicate check first, every required field filled with real diagnostics, correct labels. Use when asked to open, file, or draft a GitHub issue for Neru. Not for pull requests.
