BREAKING CHANGE: refresh endpoint now returns both access and refresh tokens
Review a commit message

Commit Review: 3/10
Issues: [FAIL] No type prefix (should be fix:, feat:, etc.) [FAIL] Vague description — what was fixed? [WARN] All lowercase is fine, but be consistent [FAIL] No scope — which module was affected?

Security
Data Transmission
AI commands send git diff output or commit history to api.evolink.ai for analysis by Claude. By setting EVOLINK_API_KEY and using these commands, you consent to this transmission. Data is not stored after the response is returned. The conventions command runs entirely locally.
Network Access
api.evolink.ai— AI analysis (AI commands only)
Persistence & Privilege
No files are written. No credentials stored. Temporary files for API payloads are cleaned up automatically. This skill never runs git commit, git push, or any destructive git operations — it only reads.
