# Never Auto-Commit Rule

## Critical Instruction

**NEVER commit changes automatically after completing work.**

## What This Means

- ❌ Do NOT commit after finishing a task
- ❌ Do NOT commit after code changes
- ❌ Do NOT commit after formatting or linting
- ❌ Do NOT assume I want to commit

## When to Commit

**ONLY commit when explicitly instructed by me.**

I will tell you to commit using phrases like:
- "Commit the changes"
- "Please commit"
- "Now commit"
- "Go ahead and commit"

## What to Do Instead

After completing work:
1. Summarize what was done
2. Show any relevant output or results
3. Stop and wait for further instructions
4. **Do NOT stage or commit files**

## Why This Rule Exists

I want full control over when commits happen. I may want to:
- Review changes before committing
- Make additional modifications
- Commit related changes together
- Skip committing for experimental work

## Reminder

**When in doubt, do NOT commit. Wait for explicit instruction.**
