## About

# Git Commit MCP Server

A small MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that automates conventional Git commits, changelog updates, and optional pushes. Use this repository when you want an AI assistant to create well-formed Conventional Commit messages and manage the CHANGELOG automatically.

See detailed documentation in the `docs/` folder:

- `docs/architecture.md` — high-level architecture, components, and data flows.
- `docs/usage.md` — setup, configuration, and common workflows (PowerShell examples included).

## Quick Start

### Prerequisites

- Python 3.10+
- Git installed and configured
- `uv` package manager (for development)
- `pipx` (for global installation)

### Installation

**Option 1: Global Installation with pipx (Recommended)**

Install globally so the server is available from any directory:

```powershell
# Install pipx if you don't have it
uv tool install pipx

# Install from PyPI (production)
pipx install git-commit-mcp-server

# Or install from TestPyPI (testing)
pipx install git-commit-mcp-server --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ --pip-args="--extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple/"
```

**Option 2: Run with uvx (No Installation)**

Run directly without installing:

```powershell
uvx git-commit-mcp-server
```

**Option 3: Development Mode**

For local development:

```powershell
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/surajfale/git-mcp-server.git
cd git-mcp-server

# Install with development dependencies
uv pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Run the server
python -m git_commit_mcp.__main__
```

## Configuration

### MCP Client Setup

The server works with various MCP-compatible clients including:
- **Kiro IDE** — `.kiro/settings/mcp.json` or `~/.kiro/settings/mcp.json`
- **Cursor IDE** — See [Cursor Configuration](#cursor-ide-configuration) below
- **Claude Desktop** — `claude_desktop_config.json`
- **WARP** — MCP configuration file
- **VSCode** — With MCP extension

**Example configuration (Kiro IDE):**

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "git-commit": {
      "command": "git-commit-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "disabled": false,
      "env": {
        "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-your-key-here",
        "ENABLE_AI": "true",
        "AI_MODEL": "gpt-4o-mini",
        "FORCE_SSH_ONLY": "true"
      },
      "autoApprove": []
    }
  }
}
```

### Environment Variables

Key environment variables:

- `OPENAI_API_KEY` — Required when `ENABLE_AI=true` for AI-powered commit messages
- `ENABLE_AI` — Set to `true` to use AI generation (default: `true`)
- `AI_MODEL` — OpenAI model to use (default: `gpt-4o-mini`)
- `FORCE_SSH_ONLY` — Require SSH for Git operations (default: `true`)
- `LOG_LEVEL` — Logging level: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR (default: `INFO`)

**Set in PowerShell:**

```powershell
# Current session
$env:OPENAI_API_KEY = 'sk-your-key-here'

# Persistent (user-level)
setx OPENAI_API_KEY "sk-your-key-here"
```

### Cursor IDE Configuration

**Important:** Cursor IDE has specific requirements. See the [detailed Cursor setup guide](docs/usage.md#cursor-ide-configuration) in `docs/usage.md`.

**Quick setup for Cursor:**

1. **Configuration file location (Windows):**
   ```
   %APPDATA%\Cursor\User\globalStorage\saoudrizwan.claude-dev\settings\cline_mcp_settings.json
   ```

2. **Basic configuration:**
   ```json
   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "git-commit-mcp": {
         "command": "git-commit-mcp",
         "args": [],
         "env": {
           "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-your-key-here",
           "ENABLE_AI": "true"
         }
       }
     }
   }
   ```

3. **For local development:**
   ```json
   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "git-commit-mcp": {
         "command": "python",
         "args": ["-m", "git_commit_mcp.__main__"],
         "cwd": "C:\\path\\to\\git_commit_message",
         "env": {
           "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-your-key-here"
         }
       }
     }
   }
   ```

**Troubleshooting:** If you encounter issues in Cursor, see the [Cursor-specific troubleshooting section](docs/usage.md#cursor-ide-specific-issues) in `docs/usage.md`.

## Usage

Once configured, use natural language with your AI assistant:

```
User: "Commit my changes"
AI: [Analyzes your git diff and generates a conventional commit message]
AI: "Created commit abc1234: feat(auth): Add user authentication module"

User: "Commit and push"
AI: [Commits and pushes to remote]
AI: "Successfully pushed to origin/main"
```

The server provides two main tools:
- `generate_commit_message` — Generate a commit message without committing
- `git_commit_and_push` — Full workflow: analyze, commit, and optionally push

## Features

- **AI-Powered Messages**: Analyzes actual git diffs to generate accurate commit messages
- **Conventional Commits**: Follows the Conventional Commits specification
- **Smart Type Detection**: Automatically determines commit type (feat, fix, docs, etc.)
- **Changelog Management**: Maintains CHANGELOG.md with commit history
- **Push Confirmation**: Requires explicit approval before pushing
- **Multi-Repository**: Works with any Git repository, local or remote

## Testing

Run the test suite:

```powershell
# Run all tests
pytest

# Run with coverage
pytest --cov=git_commit_mcp

# Run specific tests
pytest tests/test_integration.py -v
```

## Updating

Update to the latest version:

```powershell
# Update global installation
pipx upgrade git-commit-mcp-server

# Or from TestPyPI
pipx upgrade git-commit-mcp-server --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ --pip-args="--extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple/"
```
