Package Exports
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (gpt-auto-commit) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
GPT Auto Commit
GPT Auto Commit is a lightweight CLI tool that uses OpenAI’s GPT models to automatically generate clear, standards-compliant commit messages.
Why
Commit messages are the foundation of maintainable software. They drive changelogs, guide future debugging, and communicate intent across teams. Yet, writing them is often inconsistent, rushed, or forgotten entirely.
GPT Auto Commit helps developers maintain quality without adding friction. By analyzing staged changes and generating conventional commit messages, it enforces consistency while saving time so teams can focus on shipping code instead of debating message formats.
Features
- Generate commit messages with a single command
- Interactive mode to review or edit messages before committing
- Works only on staged changes for precision
- Follows Conventional Commits for consistent versioning and changelogs
- Clean, colorful CLI interface for a smooth developer experience
- Built-in progress indicators for responsive feedback
Installation
npm install -g gpt-auto-commit
API Key & Pricing
GPT Auto Commit requires an OpenAI API key.
- Sign up for an OpenAI account
- Create a new API key
Note: Usage costs depend on the model you select.
Setup
Configure your API key before first use:
gpt-auto-commit config --key YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY
# or use the shorthand
gpc config --key YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY
Model Configuration
The default model is gpt-4o-mini
for cost efficiency, but you can configure others:
# Set a different model
gpc config --model gpt-4o
gpc config --model gpt-3.5-turbo
