Operational notes

  • Terminal commit workflows require the repo sidecar, managed hook installation, and an open IntelliJ project for the same repo.
  • Blank terminal commit messages can be prefilled on Platinum when the managed hook path is active.
  • Explicit terminal commit messages such as git commit -m are preserved and not rewritten.
