git statusto review changed files. - Run
git difforgit diff --cachedto inspect changes. - Stage your changes with

git commit -m "type(scope): description"
- Just execute this prompt and Copilot will handle the commit for you in the terminal.

Anxiety-aware, evidence-driven collaboration for stalled or high-stakes work when a user says uncertainty, repeated setbacks, or lack of visible progress is causing significant anxiety or distress. Use immediately when explicitly invoked; when this fit is only inferred from the user's own account, ask permission before applying it. Preserve the user's ideal and turn grounded perspective-taking into persistent, bounded problem solving. Do not use to diagnose, provide therapy, manufacture certainty, or lower goals for reassurance.
