# Commit Discipline

**Commit early, commit often.** The last push is the recovery point.

## Commit triggers:

Commit immediately after ANY of these:
1. Each new file — route, migration, config, component, test
2. Each endpoint or feature implemented
3. Each migration — commit separately
4. Each bug fix — no matter how small
5. Before switching context to a different area
6. Before risky operations — large refactor, dependency upgrade
7. Time check — if ~15 minutes since last commit, commit what works
8. Session end — never leave uncommitted changes (use `wip:` prefix if incomplete)

## Push triggers:

Push immediately after ANY of these:
1. After each completed ticket (Post-Shot Routine)
2. Every 30 minutes
3. Before switching tickets
4. Session end — never leave unpushed commits

## Commit message format:

```
<type>(<ticket>): <short summary in imperative mood>
```

Types: `feat`, `fix`, `refactor`, `docs`, `test`, `chore`, `wip`
