Similar to @commitlint/cli in its goal to enforce standard commit practices, standard-version is focused on versioning and CHANGELOG generation based on semantic versioning (semver) and conventional commit messages. It does not lint commit messages but automates versioning and changelog creation.
Commitizen is a tool that prompts developers to fill out any required commit fields at commit time, ensuring that commits are formatted properly. While @commitlint/cli lints commit messages for compliance with a standard, commitizen helps in creating those standardized commit messages in the first place.
pre-commit is a framework for managing and maintaining multi-language pre-commit hooks. It can be used to lint commit messages among other things, similar to how @commitlint/cli is used. However, pre-commit is more general-purpose and can be used for a wide range of pre-commit checks beyond commit message linting.
