+### Commit Messages
+
+Commit messages should be [conventional](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/).
+
+If opening a PR, include the proposed commit message in the PR description.
+
+The commit message type should be one of:
+
+* `feat` / `feature` for feature work.
+* `bug` / `fix` for bug fixes.
+* `imp` / `improvements` for improvements.
+* `doc` / `docs` / `documentation` for any documentation changes.
+* `test` / `e2e` for addition or improvements of unit, integration and e2e tests or their corresponding infrastructure.
+* `deprecated` for deprecation changes.
+* `deps` / `build` for changes to dependencies.
+* `chore` / `misc` / `nit` for any miscellaneous changes that don't fit into another category.
+
+**Note**: If any change is breaking, the following format must be used:
+* `type` + `(api)!` for api breaking changes, e.g. `fix(api)!: api breaking fix`
+* `type` + `(statemachine)!` for state machine breaking changes, e.g. `fix(statemachine)!: state machine breaking fix`
+
+**`api` breaking changes take precedence over `statemachine` breaking changes.**
