• Regenerate commit messages until you find the perfect one
• In-place editing of generated commit
• Define your custom commit message format
• Simple CLI interface with debug mode

⚡️ Install

pip install ai-gen-commit

✨ Generate Commit messages

In any git directory with staged changes, run:

aic

🔍 Run in debug mode

aic -d

🦙 Local Mode [Specify model to use]

aic -m <model-name>

aic -m "llama3.2:3b"

# OR

export OLLAMA_MODEL="llama3.2:3b"

🛜 Remote Mode

To run in remote mode, export your API keys as:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your-api-key>

Specify which remote provider to use:

export AI_COMMIT_PROVIDER="gemini" or "openai" or "togetherai" or "groq" or "deepseek" or "mistral"

then enable remote mode:

aic -r

Specify the model to use based on the provider:

export AI_COMMIT_PROVIDER="groq"
export AI_COMMIT_MODEL="qwen-2.5-32b" # pass the model as env var
aic -r

# ---

export AI_COMMIT_PROVIDER="openai"
aic -r -m "gpt-4o-2024-11-20" # pass the model as flag

# ---

export AI_COMMIT_PROVIDER="gemini"
aic -r -m "gemini-1.5-flash"

✨ Bring your own Provider

You can use any OPEN AI compatible provider/server for commit generation.

export AI_COMMIT_PROVIDER=custom # should be set to custom
export AI_COMMIT_MODEL=llama3.2:3b # example
export AI_COMMIT_PROVIDER_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434/v1 # example
export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your-api-key> # if your custom provider requires one

📝 In-place Editing

🎥 Watch the Demo

Set your editor environment variable:

export EDITOR=vim

After commit message is generated, press e to edit using the defined $EDITOR.

🤖 Custom commit message format

Users can generate commit messages based on the format and instructions defined in the system prompt.

To define system prompt on project level

1. Create a .ai-commit file in your git repository's root directory (same location as the .git folder)
2. Add your system prompt to this file

To define a global system prompt

1. Create a file on ~/.$HOME/.ai-commit
2. Add your system prompt to this file

| Project-level System Prompt > Global System Prompt > Built-in system prompt.
