AI Commits is a command-line tool that writes your git commit messages for you using an AI model. It works by running git diff to gather your staged code changes, sending that diff to an LLM (originally GPT-3, now configurable), and receiving back a concise, human-readable commit message. The tool is designed to integrate cleanly into a developer’s workflow so that generating a descriptive commit message becomes a single command rather than a chore. It supports configuration via environment variables or config files so you can set your API key, preferred model, message style, and more. There are also options to preview, edit, or regenerate the AI-proposed message before actually committing, giving developers control instead of blindly trusting the output. Because it’s published as an npm package and even as a Homebrew formula, installation is straightforward across platforms.
