+- Focus on WHY the changes were made, not just WHAT was changed
+- Ask about the intent, motivation, or business purpose behind the changes
+- Consider what future developers need to understand about this change
+- Ask about the broader impact or consequences of the changes

+❌ Should I use "feat" or "fix" for this change? - This asks about formatting, not context

+<format_instructions>
+Your task is to split the changed files into separate, logical commits. Think of this like sorting files into different folders where each file belongs in exactly one folder.
+
+CRITICAL REQUIREMENT - Every File Used Exactly Once:
+You must assign EVERY file from the diff to exactly ONE commit.
+- NO file should be left out
+- NO file should appear in multiple commits
+- EVERY file must be used once and ONLY once
+
+Think of it like dealing cards: Once you've dealt a card to a player, that card cannot be dealt to another player.
+
+HOW TO SPLIT THE FILES:
+1. Review all changed files in the diff
+2. Group files by logical relationship (e.g., related features, bug fixes, documentation)
+3. Assign each file to exactly one commit based on what makes the most sense
+4. If a file could fit in multiple commits, pick the best fit and move on - do NOT duplicate it
+5. Continue until every single file has been assigned to a commit
+
+ORDERING:
+Order the commits in a logical sequence considering dependencies, natural progression, and overall workflow.
+
+YOUR RESPONSE FORMAT:
+Respond with valid JSON following this structure:
+```json
+{
+  "commits": [
+    {
+      "files": ["src/auth/login.ts", "src/auth/logout.ts"],
+      "message": "<commit_message_conforming_to_prescribed_structure_and_format>"
+    },
+    {
+      "files": ["src/db/schema.sql", "src/db/migrations/001.sql"],
+      "message": "<commit_message_conforming_to_prescribed_structure_and_format>"
+    },
+    {
+      "files": ["tests/auth.test.ts", "tests/db.test.ts", "README.md"],
+      "message": "<commit_message_conforming_to_prescribed_structure_and_format>"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+☝️ Notice how EVERY file path in the example above appears exactly ONCE across all commits. "src/auth/login.ts" appears once. "tests/auth.test.ts" appears once. No file is repeated.
+
+VALIDATION CHECKLIST - Before responding, verify:
+□ Total files across all commits = Total files in the diff
+□ Each file appears in exactly 1 commit (no duplicates, no omissions)
+□ Every commit has at least one file
+□ If you list all files from all commits and count them, you get the same count as unique files in the diff
