AI-powered Pull Request Description Generator
Project description
AIPR - Agentic Pull Request Description Generator
Automatically analyze git diffs and vulnerabilities to generate comprehensive, well-structured pull request descriptions. By intelligently detecting changes, performing security scans, and leveraging state-of-the-art AI models, AIPR helps teams save time while maintaining high-quality, consistent pull request descriptions.
AI-Driven Development
This project follows an AI-driven development workflow:
- 🤖 Built with AI - Developed using Claude Code with comprehensive AI guidance
- 📋 AI Task Assignment - Structured workflow for AI agents documented in CONTRIBUTING.md
- 📚 AI-Friendly Documentation - Comprehensive guides for AI agents in CLAUDE.md and Architecture Decision Records
- 🏗️ Architecture-First Design - ADRs define behavior and guide implementation patterns

Key Features
- 🔍 Smart Detection: Automatically analyzes working tree changes, compares branches, or analyzes commit ranges
- 📝 Conventional Commits: Generate conventional commit messages from staged changes or commit ranges
- 📊 Commit Range Analysis: Generate descriptions and commit messages from any commit range (SHA to SHA)
- 🛡️ Security First: Optional vulnerability scanning between branches using Trivy
- 🤖 AI-Powered: Multiple AI providers (Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini) for optimal results
- 🔄 CI/CD Ready: Seamless integration with GitLab and GitHub workflows

Commit Message Generation
$ git add src/auth.py tests/test_auth.py
$ aipr commit
feat(auth): add OAuth2 authentication support
$ git add requirements.txt
$ aipr commit
build(deps): update dependencies to latest versions
$ git add README.md docs/guide.md
$ aipr commit
docs: update installation and usage documentation
Requirements
- Python 3.11 or higher (3.11, 3.12 officially supported)
- Git
- LLM API Key (Anthropic, OpenAI, or Azure OpenAI)
- Trivy (used for
--vulnsscanning)
Environment Variables
The tool automatically detects which provider to use based on available environment variables, with the following priority order:
-
Azure OpenAI (Default - Highest Priority)
AZURE_API_KEY: Azure OpenAI API keyAZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT: Azure endpoint URLAZURE_API_VERSION: API version (default: "2024-02-15-preview")
-
Anthropic
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY: Anthropic API key
-
OpenAI
OPENAI_API_KEY: OpenAI API key
-
Google Gemini
GEMINI_API_KEY: Google Gemini API key
-
xAI
XAI_API_KEY: xAI API key for Grok models
Usage
AIPR provides two main commands:
PR Command (Pull Request Descriptions)
aipr pr [options] # or just 'aipr' for backward compatibility
Options:
-t, --target: Compare changes with specific branch (default: auto-detects main/master)-p, --prompt: Select prompt template (e.g., 'meta')--vulns: Include vulnerability scanning--working-tree: Use working tree changes--from: Starting commit for range analysis (SHA, branch, tag, etc.)--to: Ending commit for range analysis (defaults to HEAD, requires --from)
Global Options:
-v, --verbose: Show API interaction details-d, --debug: Preview prompts without API calls-s, --silent: Output only the description-m, --model: Specify AI model to use
The tool intelligently detects changes by:
- Using staged/unstaged changes if present
- Comparing against target branch if working tree is clean
Commit Command (Conventional Commit Messages)
aipr commit [options]
Options:
--conventional: Generate conventional commit message (default)--format: Message format (currently only 'conventional')--context: Additional context for the commit message--from: Starting commit for range analysis (SHA, branch, tag, etc.)--to: Ending commit for range analysis (defaults to HEAD, requires --from)
Examples:
# Basic commit message generation from staged changes
git add .
aipr commit
# Generate commit message from commit range
aipr commit --from abc123 --to def456
# Generate commit message from specific commit to HEAD
aipr commit --from abc123
# With additional context
aipr commit --context "upstream sync"
# Use in automation
git commit -m "$(aipr commit)"
