# Chanora Git Commit Message Convention

**Document status:** DV meeting baseline candidate  
**Date:** 2026-05-29

Chanora uses Conventional Commits style:

```text
<type>(<scope>): <summary>
```

Examples:

```text
feat(voice): add push-to-talk state handling
fix(protocol): recover channel tree after reconnect snapshot
sec(diagnostics): redact server password from export bundle
release(android): prepare internal alpha build metadata
```

Commits that affect requirements, design, verification, release, security, privacy, or legal gates should update the relevant document in the same change set.
