aigy v1.0.10

Installation and Usage

1. Install the CLI:

   npm install -g aicommits

2. Retrieve your API key from OpenAI

   Note: If you haven't already, you'll have to create an account and set up billing.

3. Set the key so aicommits can use it:

   echo "OPENAI_KEY=<your token>" >> ~/.aicommits

4. You're ready to go!

   Run aicommits in any Git repo and it will generate a commit message for you.

How it works

This CLI tool runs git diff to grab all your latest code changes, sends them to OpenAI's GPT-3, then returns the AI generated commit message.

Video coming soon where I rebuild it from scratch to show you how to easily build your own CLI tools powered by AI.

Future tasks

• Add support for conventional commits as a flag that users can enable
• Add support for diffs greater than 200 lines by grabbing the diff per file, optional flag
• Add ability to specify a commit message from inside aicommit if user doesn't like generated one
• Solve latency issue (use a githook to asynchronously run gpt3 call on every git add, store the result in a temp file or in the .git folder). Put behind a flag
• Use gpt-3-tokenizer instead of hard limit on characters as a more accurate model
• Play around with prompt to produce optimal result
• Add opt-in emoji flag to preface commits with an emoji, use this as a guide
• Add opt-in languages flag where it returns the commit in different languages
• Add automated github releases using this action
• Build landing page for the 2.0 launch
