AI-Assisted Git Intelligence & Engineering Analysis Platform

aiassist is a local-first AI-assisted engineering intelligence platform for:

• Git diff analysis
• engineering change summaries
• pull request summaries
• architectural analysis
• Django-aware change detection
• hierarchical diff summarization

The platform combines:

• deterministic Python analysis
• Git intelligence
• local LLM synthesis
• architecture-aware summarization

to generate high-quality engineering summaries from Git changes.

---

Philosophy

aiassist follows several core principles:

• local-first execution
• privacy-preserving workflows
• deterministic preprocessing
• AI-assisted synthesis
• architecture-aware engineering analysis
• no cloud dependency required

The system intentionally avoids:

• agent framework complexity
• vector databases
• autonomous orchestration
• unnecessary infrastructure

CLI Examples

Default Artifact Output

aiassist \
    --path mailer/

Generates:

change-summary/
├── cache/
├── diff/

├── markdown/
└── metadata/

---

Custom Artifact Output Directory

    --path mailer/ \
    -o artifacts/

Generates:

artifacts/
├── cache/
├── diff/
├── json/
├── markdown/
└── metadata/

---

Use Specific Git Remote

aiassist \
    --path mailer/ \
    --remote github

---

Use Specific Base Branch

aiassist \
    --path mailer/ \
    --base-branch develop

---

Override Both Remote And Branch

aiassist \
    --path mailer/ \
    --remote upstream \
    --base-branch master

---

Use Specific Model

aiassist \
    --path . \
    --model qwen2.5-coder \
    --size 7b

---

Skip Additional Paths

aiassist \
    --path . \
    --skip migrations legacy tests

---

Skip Multiple Directories

aiassist \
    --path . \
    --skip \
        aiassist/config/ \
        tests/ \
        docs/

---

Generate Aggregate Summary Only

aiassist \
    --path . \
    --aggregate

---

Artifact Generation

By default, aiassist generates artifacts inside:

./change-summary/

relative to the current execution directory.

Generated structure:

change-summary/
└── 2026/
    └── 2026-05-16/
        └── v0.1.0/
            ├── cache/
            ├── diff/
            ├── json/
            ├── markdown/
            └── metadata/

Artifact directories are grouped by:

• generation year
• generation date
• {app_version}

This allows:

• release-day traceability
• historical summary preservation
• multiple generation runs per day
• isolated summaries across aiassist versions

Directories are automatically:

• created if missing
• reused if existing
• regenerated safely during execution

The system clears only generated runtime artifacts:

• diff/
• markdown/

while preserving:

• cache/
• json/
• metadata/

This prevents stale summaries while preserving reusable metadata.

Custom output root may be specified using:

-o artifacts/

---

Git Comparison Strategy

aiassist compares changes against:

<remote>/<base-branch>

Examples:

origin/main
github/main
upstream/develop
gitlab/main

Default values:

remote       = origin
base-branch  = main

Both may be overridden dynamically:

aiassist \
    --path mailer/ \
    --remote github \
    --base-branch develop

If remote or branch does not exist, execution halts safely with validation errors.

---

Security & Sensitive Data Handling

aiassist automatically redacts common sensitive credential patterns from generated diffs.

Current protected patterns include:

• SECRET_KEY
• API_KEY
• PRIVATE_KEY
• ACCESS_KEY
• CLIENT_SECRET
• secret_key
• api_key
• private_key
• access_key
• client_secret

Sensitive lines are replaced with:

[REDACTED SENSITIVE CONTENT]

The filtering system intentionally avoids false positives for:

• imports
• comments
• variable names like token_count
• helper functions

---

Generated Artifact Structure

change-summary/

├── cache/
├── diff/
├── json/
├── markdown/
└── metadata/

Generated artifacts include:

Directory	Purpose
diff/	Generated Git diffs
markdown/	AI-generated markdown summaries
cache/	Cached runtime artifacts
json/	Structured machine-readable outputs
metadata/	Internal execution metadata

---

Prompt System

aiassist ships with multiple prompt templates:

• compact summaries
• full engineering summaries
• aggregate summaries
• aggregate engineering summaries

Prompt templates are preloaded into memory during startup for:

• fail-fast validation
• reduced filesystem overhead
• stable long-running execution

---
