What problem does it solve?
It prevents vague, misleading, or inconsistently scoped git commit messages by enforcing a strict structure and requiring clear reasoning for each change.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Conventional Commits output: Produces
type(scope): summary titles plus a why paragraph and bullet-point change list.
- Semantic domain + scope inference: Determines whether the change is embedded, driver, desktop, or other, and assigns a scope based on responsibility rather than filenames.
- Confidence gating with ASK mode: Avoids finalizing commits when domain, scope, or type is ambiguous, prompting up to two targeted multiple-choice questions instead.
- Scoring and auto-rewrite: Scores results (0–100) and automatically revises if the score is below 75 (up to two rewrite attempts), improving format fidelity and clarity.
Quick Start
Use git-commit-intelligence to generate a structured Conventional Commits message for the changes you are about to commit, and ask follow-up questions only if type or scope is unclear.
