Gitai analyzes your code changes to generate precise, descriptive commit messages following the Conventional Commits standard. It eliminates the friction of writing commit messages, ensuring a clean, semantic, and professional git history automatically.
Key capabilities:
This skill requires the @notyped/gitai CLI tool to be installed and configured on the system BEFORE the agent can operate.
The AGENT MUST NOT attempt to install this package or configure it.
gitai is available:
command -v gitai > "The gitai CLI tool is not installed. Please install it globally (e.g., npm install -g @notyped/gitai) and configure it before using this skill."
~/.gitai exists. > "The gitai tool is installed but not configured. Please run gitai in your terminal to complete the setup."

💬 Integration Tip
Ensure the gitai CLI is pre-installed and configured on the system before agent execution to avoid runtime errors and dependency issues.
Interact with GitHub using the `gh` CLI. Use `gh issue`, `gh pr`, `gh run`, and `gh api` for issues, PRs, CI runs, and advanced queries.
Query the DeepWiki MCP server for GitHub repository documentation, wiki structure, and AI-powered questions.
Automated GitHub PR code review with diff analysis, lint integration, and structured reports. Use when reviewing pull requests, checking for security issues,...
Essential Git commands and workflows for version control, branching, and collaboration.
Advanced git operations beyond add/commit/push. Use when rebasing, bisecting bugs, using worktrees for parallel development, recovering with reflog, managing subtrees/submodules, resolving merge conflicts, cherry-picking across branches, or working with monorepos.
Format commit messages using the Conventional Commits specification. Use when creating commits, writing commit messages, or when the user mentions commits, git commits, or commit messages. Ensures commits follow the standard format for automated tooling, changelog generation, and semantic versioning.
